Privacy Policy Change History
Video CDN server location changed for policy content
Updated July 2026
The video URLs for policy highlights have been updated to use a different content delivery network (CDN) server. The 'Collect' video moved from ord5-1 to hou1-1 server, and the 'Uses' video also moved to hou1-1. While this is primarily a technical change, it may affect video loading performance and data routing for users accessing the policy content.
Key Changes:
- Video thumbnail URL for 'What information do we collect?' changed from video-ord5-1.xx.fbcdn.net to video-hou1-1.xx.fbcdn.net
- Video thumbnail URL for 'How do we use your information?' changed from video-ord5-1.xx.fbcdn.net to video-hou1-1.xx.fbcdn.net
- Associated video parameters and asset IDs updated in CDN configuration
Video CDN server change indicates potential tracking infrastructure update
Updated July 2026
The video hosting URLs changed from 'video-sjc6-1.xx.fbcdn.net' to 'video-ord5-1.xx.fbcdn.net', indicating a shift in Meta's content delivery network infrastructure. While this appears to be a technical infrastructure change, CDN changes can affect how user interactions with video content are tracked and logged across different geographic regions.
Key Changes:
- Video collection tutorial URL changed from sjc6 (San Jose) to ord5 (Chicago) CDN
- Video usage tutorial URL changed from sjc6 to ord5 CDN
- Associated tracking parameters (_nc_gid, _nc_ohc) also updated in both video URLs
