PROTECTING YOUR PRIVACY ON FACEBOOK - Part 2

(continued from 5/14/12 post)

More ways to stay secure . . .

Turn off Tag Suggest - This disables the privacy setting feature that automatically recognizes your face in photos and deletes the information.

Block apps and sites that snoop - Unless you intercede, friends can share personal information about you with apps.  To block that, use controls to limit the info apps can see.

Keep wall posts from friends - You don't have to share every wall post with every friend.  You can also keep certain people from viewing specific items in your profile.

When all else fails, deactivate - When you deactivate your account, Facebook retains your profile data, but the account is made temporarily inaccessible.  Deleting an account, on the other hand, makes it inaccessible to you forever.
