I think its an exocrine gland in which the gland duct is connected to multiple secretory portions
All salivary glands are structurally compound exocrine glands, example is sweat glands.
Pancreas and the Ovaries(in females) are the glands which can be called both endocrine and exocrine.
The sebaceous glands and sweat glands secretes their secretions on the surface. That is on the skin. Technically the glands of the intestine also secrete their secretions on the surface. The intestinal cavity is never 'inside' your body. It is out side your body.

Most glands do not have ducts. The ones that do are called exocrine glands; mainly these just are sweat glands, oils glands, digestive glands, and sexaul reproducitive glands.

The generic term for glands that empty into a duct or onto a body surface are called exocrine glands. Glands the release their secretions directly into the blood stream are called endocrine glands.
