In addition, some third-party services have integrated the quick login capability of HUAWEI ID. When you access such services, the third parties can only link your HUAWEI ID for login authentication. We will not share any of your other personal information with the third-party services.

When a third-party app requests to use your additional personal information (which may include your phone number, email address, ID card information, or address information), your separate consent will be requested again. Such information will be shared with the third-party app only with your consent

You can also log in to your HUAWEI ID by linking a third party account, such as QQ, Weibo, WeChat, or Apple ID. After you authorize linking the third-party account, the nickname and profile picture you set with the third-party account may be used as the nickname and profile picture of your HUAWEI ID.
