Social buttons are the “buttons” on the website that depect the social network icons (i.e. Facebook and Twitter) and allow users who are browsing to interact with a click directly with social platforms.

The social buttons used by the site on the page www.suzuki.it are links to the Controller's accounts on the social networks shown.
