However, if you are logged into your Instagram account at the time you access our website, Instagram will process your personal data. Instagram may transfer the data to third parties, e.g. US authorities, if this is required by law, or where third parties process the data on behalf of Instagram. We have no influence on the type and scope of your personal data processed by Instagram.
