Guiding You Through Your Privacy Choices

We updated Privacy Checkup to guide you through important privacy settings on Facebook. The revamped Privacy Checkup tool has expanded to four distinct topics to help you strengthen your account security and control who can see what you share and how your information is used. We know privacy is personal and we’ve integrated privacy tips to help you make the right privacy decisions for you.
