Visão Geral
LinkedIn's JavaScript SDK for embedding social plugins (Share buttons, Follow buttons, profile badges) on third-party websites. Distinct from the LinkedIn Insight Tag - this SDK provides social interaction features rather than advertising conversion tracking. The CJEU Fashion ID ruling (C-40/17), while decided on Facebook Social Plugins, establishes the principle that website operators embedding any social plugin are joint controllers with the social network for the data collection triggered by the plugin.

Erros Comuns
- 1 Confusing LinkedIn Social Plugins with the LinkedIn Insight Tag - social plugins embed profile badges and share buttons, while the Insight Tag (px.ads.linkedin.com) is an advertising pixel with significantly different privacy implications
- 2 Loading the platform SDK without consent - similar to Meta Social Plugins, the CJEU Fashion ID ruling (C-40/17) established that website operators are joint controllers for data collection triggered by embedded social plugins
- 3 Not disclosing the joint controllership obligation in the privacy notice as required by Fashion ID (C-40/17)
- 4 Embedding LinkedIn profile badges on pages with sensitive content without assessing whether linking visitors to professional profiles is appropriate
Considerações de Conformidade
Loads scripts from platform.linkedin.com and renders social plugin iframes. When initialised, the SDK transmits visitor data (IP address, browser metadata, page URL) to LinkedIn servers regardless of whether the visitor interacts with the plugin.
Consent: Consent required under ePrivacy Art 5(3). The Fashion ID ruling (C-40/17, 29 July 2019) on Facebook Social Plugins applies by analogy to LinkedIn Social Plugins - the website operator must obtain consent for the initial data collection phase.
Joint controllership: Fashion ID establishes that the site operator and the social network are joint controllers for the collection and transmission phases. A joint controller agreement under GDPR Art 26 may be required.
International transfers: LinkedIn (Microsoft) is certified under the EU-US Data Privacy Framework. LinkedIn's European operations are based in Dublin (LinkedIn Ireland Unlimited Company).
CMP configuration: Categorise under functional or social consent and block SDK initialisation until consent is granted.

Twitter/X Embed
Med X (Twitter)
Twitter/X embed widgets loaded via JavaScript on third-party websites. The widgets.js script from platform.twitter.com (or platform.x.com) loads embedded tweets, timelines, and share buttons. On load, the embed transmits visitor data to X Corp's infrastructure including IP address, browser fingerprint, and referrer information.

YouTube Embed
High Google
YouTube video embeds loaded via iframe on third-party websites. Standard embeds (youtube.com/embed/) set cookies and transmit data to Google's infrastructure on page load. The privacy-enhanced mode (youtube-nocookie.com/embed/) is widely misunderstood - despite the name, it still sets cookies when the user plays the video, and in some configurations sets cookies on page load. Multiple European DPAs have confirmed that YouTube embeds require consent under the ePrivacy Directive.
