Facebook Introducing Privacy Center
facebook is introducing Privacy Center, a new place to learn more about our approach to privacy across our apps and technologies.
Privacy Center provides helpful information about five common privacy topics: sharing, security, data collection, data use, and ads.
Privacy Center is now available to a limited number of people using Facebook on desktop in the US, and we plan to roll it out to more people and more of our apps in the coming months.
Facebook is introducing Privacy Center to educate people on their privacy options and make it easier to understand how we collect and use information. In Privacy Center, you can learn about our approach to privacy, read up on the Data Policy and learn how to use the many privacy and security controls that Facebook offer.
