also, is it fetching something from FB servers? Why?

I keep some private data on Beeminder, I am not appreciating that my use of Beeminder may be leaking to FB.

We’re definitely not leaking private data to Facebook. We used to have a Facebook share button but I think we killed that. We do have a Facebook link in the page footer:

Oh, and I see we still have “Facebook Pixel Code” for when we were experimenting with advertising on Facebook.

Anyway, I vouch for it being non-creepy.
