Ce contenu du système d’aide de Facebook n’est pas disponible dans votre langue. Veuillez en choisir une autre :
By using the Instagram Platform, you agree to this policy. By "Platform" we mean a set of APIs, SDKs, plugins, code, specifications, documentation, technology, and services (such as content) that enable others, including application developers and website operators, to retrieve data from Instagram or provide data to us. We reserve the right to change this policy at any time without notice, so please check it regularly. Your continued use of the Instagram Platform constitutes acceptance of any changes. You also agree to and are responsible for ensuring that you comply with the Instagram Terms of Use and Instagram Community Guidelines.
We provide the Instagram Platform to support several types of apps and services. First, we provide them to help members of our community share their own content with apps or services. We also support apps and services that help brands and advertisers understand and manage their audience, develop their content strategy, and obtain digital rights. Finally, we provide the Instagram Platform to help broadcasters and publishers discover content, get digital rights to media, and share media using web embeds. The Instagram Platform is not intended for other types of apps or services. For those we do support, the following terms and information also apply:
