Data is harvested by social media by offering choices which allows the company to see personal things about the user and the user is willing to share. Also they allow the user to enter typical data like phone number and age. The company now can analyse the data and what anything else they feel necessary. 
Data harvesting via SM can be used for advertising because the company can add things into their advertising to do with the users interest so that the user will stay loyal to the social media site because it shows things that they like.
