Facebook has an odd way of peering into your life. Tracking your interests, hobbies, and tastes has made the company one of the most effective marketing platforms on the planet. And while some of those targeted ads in your Facebook feed are beneficial, it can also feel creepy. That’s not to mention that the social site’s default settings allow other Facebook users to see your profile, photos, and more.
So, with that in mind, here’s how to keep your privacy on Facebook in ten simple steps.
1. Protect Your Future Posts
You may think you have nothing to hide or be ashamed of on Facebook, but when you have your posts marked for public, anyone can gather information on you. By switching it to only particular friends on your list, it helps maintain your personal privacy.
How to do it? Go to:
- Settings
- Privacy
- Your Activity
- Select who you want to see your posts
