How do I make the Facebook Like button not track my users?

I want one of my pages to have a Like button on Facebook, but the organization in which I work has worries about the consequences of privacy that allow Facebook to track all users who visit my site.

A typical Facebook button provided by JavaScript is written in JavaScript, which is served from the Facebook website. Theoretically and, most likely, in practice, this allows Facebook to track all users of my site, many of whom are not even Facebook users.

Thus, instead of using a script that provides Facebook and hosts, I would just like to post an image from my server, and when the user clicks “Like”, they will be redirected to some kind of URL on the Facebook site, which will allow them to do all they need to complete the How-To process.

Is such a process currently supported by Facebook? Does anyone have any experience doing anything like this?

You cannot simulate this without permission and using the Facebook API. But you can use the global link to share Facebook so that the user can share the link without any javascript from them on your site. You just need to configure it:
