promotional events, news, new art and product releases may do so by checking
back to the website or subscribing to our group on Face Book.
Facebook Policies:
These are the privacy policies and disclosures from Facebook:
TRUSTe Program. Facebook is a certified licensee of the
TRUSTe Privacy Seal Program. This means that our privacy policy and practices
have been reviewed by TRUSTe, an independent organization focused on reviewing
privacy and security policies and practices, for compliance with its strict
program requirements. This privacy policy covers the website
www.facebook.com. The TRUSTe program
covers only information that is collected through this Web site, and does not
cover other information, such as information that may be collected through
software downloaded from Facebook.
Safe Harbor. Facebook also adheres to the Safe Harbor
framework developed by the U.S. Department of Commerce and the European Union.
As part of our participation in the Safe Harbor, we agree to resolve all
disputes you have with us in connection with our policies and practices through
TRUSTe. To view our certification, visit the U.S. Department of Commerce's Safe
Harbor Web site.
Scope. This privacy policy covers all of Facebook. It does not,
however, apply to entities that Facebook does not own or control, such as
Facebook-enhanced applications and websites. By using or accessing Facebook, you
agree to our privacy practices outlined
here.
No information from children under age 13. If you are under age
13, please do not attempt to register for Facebook or provide any personal
information about yourself to us. If we learn that we have collected personal
information from a child under age 13, we will delete that information as
quickly as possible. If you believe that we might have any information from a
child under age 13, please contact us through this
help page.
Parental participation. We strongly recommend that minors 13
years of age or older ask their parents for permission before sending any
information about themselves to anyone over the Internet and we encourage
parents to teach their children about safe internet use practices. Materials to
help parents talk to their children about safe internet use can be found on this
help page.
2. Information We Receive
Information you provide to us:
Personal information. When you sign up for Facebook you provide
us with your name, email, gender, and birth date. During the registration
process we give you the opportunity to provide additional profile information,
such as where you went to school and where you work, and to add a picture of
yourself, to help your friends connect with you. In some cases we may ask for
additional information for security reasons or to provide specific services to
you. Once you register you can visit your profile at any time to add or remove
personal information about yourself. You can add basic information about
yourself, such as information about your hometown, family, relationships, and
your political and religious views. You can also add other information about
yourself including your activities, interests, contact information, as well as
more information about your education and job history.
Content. One of the primary reasons people use Facebook is to
share content with others. Examples include when you update your status, upload
or take a photo, upload or record a video, share a link, create an event or a
group, make a comment, write something on someone’s Wall, write a note, or send
someone a message. If you do not want us to store metadata associated with
content you share on Facebook (such as photos), please remove the metadata
before uploading the content.
Transactional Information. We may retain the details of
transactions or payments you make on Facebook. However, we will only keep your
payment source account number with your consent.
Friend Information. We offer contact importer tools to help you
upload your friends’ addresses so that you can find your friends on Facebook,
and invite your contacts who do not have Facebook accounts to join. If you do
not want us to store this information, visit this
help page.
If you give us your password to retrieve those contacts, we will not store your
password after you have uploaded your contacts’ information.
Location Information. When you share your location with others
or add a location to something you post, we treat that like any other content
you post (for example, it is subject to your
privacy settings). If we offer a
service that supports this type of location sharing we will present you with an
opt-in choice of whether you want to participate.
Information we collect when you interact with Facebook:
Site activity information. We keep track of the actions you
take on Facebook, such as adding a friend, becoming a fan of a Facebook Page,
joining a group or an event, creating a photo album, sending a gift, poking
another user, indicating you “like” a post, attending an event, or authorizing
an application. In some cases you are also taking an action when you provide
information or content to us. For example, if you share a video, in addition to
storing the actual content you uploaded, we might log the fact you shared it.
Access Device and Browser Information. When you access Facebook
from a computer, mobile phone, or other device, we may collect information from
that device about your browser type, location, and IP address, as well as the
pages you visit.
Cookie Information. We use "cookies" (small pieces of data we
store for an extended period of time on your computer, mobile phone, or other
device) to make Facebook easier to use, to make our advertising better, and to
protect both you and Facebook. For example, we use them to store your login ID
(but never your password) to make it easier for you to login whenever you come
back to Facebook. We also use them to confirm that you are logged into Facebook,
and to know when you are interacting with Facebook Platform applications and
websites, our widgets and Share buttons, and our advertisements. You can remove
or block cookies using the settings in your browser, but in some cases that may
impact your ability to use Facebook.
Information we receive from third parties:
Facebook Platform and Facebook Connect. We do not own or
operate the applications that you use through Facebook Platform (such as games
and utilities) or the websites that you interact with through Facebook Connect.
We refer to them as “Facebook-enhanced” applications and websites because they
use our Platform to provide you with social features. Whenever you authorize a
Facebook-enhanced application or website, we will receive information from them,
including information about actions you take. In some cases, in order to
personalize the process of connecting, we may receive a limited amount of
information even before you authorize the application or website.
Information from other websites. We may institute programs with
advertising partners and other websites in which they share information with us:
- We may ask advertisers to tell us how our users responded to the ads we showed
them (and for comparison purposes, how other users who didn’t see the ads acted
on their site). This data sharing, commonly known as “conversion tracking,”
helps us measure our advertising effectiveness and improve the quality of the
advertisements you see.
- We may receive information about whether or not you’ve seen or interacted with
certain ads on other sites in order to measure the effectiveness of those ads.
If in any of these cases we receive data that we do not already have, we will
“anonymize” it within 180 days, meaning we will stop associating the information
with any particular user. If we institute these programs, we will only use the
information in the ways we explain in the “How We Use Your Information” section
below.
Information from other users. We may collect information about
you from other Facebook users, such as when a friend tags you in a photo or
video, provides friend details, or indicates a relationship with you. You can
limit who can see that you have been tagged in a photo or video – which we refer
to as photos or videos “of me” – in your
privacy settings.
3. Information You Share With Third Parties
We take steps to ensure that others use information that you share on Facebook
in a manner consistent with your
privacy settings, but we cannot guarantee that they will follow our rules.
Read the following section to learn more about how you can protect yourself when
you share information with third parties.
Sharing information on Facebook. We designed our
privacy settings to enable you to
control how you share your information on Facebook. You should review the
default privacy settings to make
sure they reflect your preferences. Here are some specific things to remember:
- You can control the visibility of most of the information you share on
Facebook through the privacy settings
you select.
- Certain categories of information such as your name, profile photo, list of
friends and pages you are a fan of, gender, geographic region, and networks you
belong to are considered publicly available, and therefore do not have privacy
settings. You can limit the ability of others to find this information on third
party search engines through your search
privacy settings.
- Some of the content you share and the actions you take will show up on your
friends’ home pages and other pages they visit.
- Even after you remove information from your profile or delete your account,
copies of that information may remain viewable elsewhere to the extent it has
been shared with others, it was otherwise distributed pursuant to your
privacy settings, or it was
copied or stored by other users.
- You understand that information might be re-shared or copied by other users.
- Certain types of communications that you send to other users cannot be
removed, such as messages.
- When you post information on another user’s profile or comment on another
user’s post, that information will be subject to the other user’s
privacy settings.
- If you use an external source to publish information to Facebook (such as a
mobile application or a Connect site), you should check the privacy setting for
that post, as it is set by that external source.
“Everyone” Privacy Setting. Information set to “everyone” is
publicly available information, may be accessed by everyone on the Internet
(including people not logged into Facebook), is subject to indexing by third
party search engines, may be associated with you outside of Facebook (such as
when you visit other sites on the internet), and may be imported and exported by
us and others without privacy limitations. The default privacy setting for
certain types of information you post on Facebook is set to “everyone.” You can
review and change the default settings in your
privacy settings. If you delete
“everyone” content that you posted on Facebook, we will remove it from your
Facebook profile, but have no control over its use outside of Facebook.
Facebook Platform. As mentioned above, we do not own or operate
Facebook-enhanced applications or websites. That means that when you visit
Facebook-enhanced applications and websites you are making your Facebook
information available to someone other than Facebook. To help those applications
and sites operate, they receive publicly available information automatically
when you visit them, and additional information when you formally authorize or
connect your Facebook account with them. You can learn more details about which
information the operators of those applications and websites can access on our
About Platform
page. Prior to allowing them to access any information about you, we require
them to agree to terms that limit their use of your information (which you can
read about in Section 9 of our
Statement of Rights and Responsibilities) and we use technical measures to
ensure that they only obtain authorized information. We also give you tools to
control how your information is shared with them:
[You can choose to opt-out of Facebook Platform and Facebook Connect altogether
through your privacy settings]
(We will remove this sentence in the next revision to our Privacy Policy as the
product has changed)
- You can block specific applications from accessing your information by
visiting your application
settings or the application’s “About” page
- You can use your privacy settings
to limit which of your information is available to “everyone” (by default, every
application and website, including those you have not connected with, can access
“everyone” and other publicly available content)
- You can use your application
settings to limit which of your information your friends can make available
to applications and websites
- We may make information about the location of your computer or access device
and your age available to Facebook –enhanced applications and websites in order
to help them implement appropriate security measures and control the
distribution of age-appropriate content.
You should always review the policies of third party applications and websites
to make sure you are comfortable with the ways in which they use information you
share with them. We do not guarantee that they will follow our rules. If you
find an application or website that violates our rules, you should report the
violation to us on this help
page and we will take action as necessary.
Exporting Information. You (and those you make your information
available to) may use tools like RSS feeds, mobile phone address books, or copy
and paste functions, to capture and export information from Facebook, including
your information and information about you.
Advertisements. Sometimes the advertisers who present ads on
Facebook use technological methods to measure the effectiveness of their ads and
to personalize advertising content. You may opt-out of the placement of cookies
by many of these advertisers
here. You
may also use your browser cookie settings to limit or prevent the placement of
cookies by advertising networks.
Links. When you click on links on Facebook you may leave our
site. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of other sites, and we
encourage you to read their privacy statements.
4. How We Use Your Information
We use the information we collect to try to provide a safe, efficient, and
customized experience. Here are some of the details on how we do that:
To manage the service. We use the information we collect to
provide our services and features to you, to measure and improve those services
and features, and to provide you with customer support. We use the information
to prevent potentially illegal activities, and to enforce our
Statement of Rights and
Responsibilities. For example, we ask for your date of birth to verify that
you are over age 13 and so that we can better limit your access to content and
advertisements that are not age appropriate. We also use a variety of
technological systems to detect and address anomalous activity and screen
content to prevent abuse such as spam. These efforts may on occasion result in a
temporary or permanent suspension or termination of some functions for some
users.
To contact you. We may contact you with service-related
announcements from time to time. You may opt out of all communications except
essential updates on your
account
notifications page. We may include content you see on Facebook in the emails
we send to you.
To serve personalized advertising to you. We don’t share your
information with advertisers without your consent. (An example of consent would
be if you asked us to provide your shipping address to an advertiser to receive
a free sample.) We allow advertisers to choose the characteristics of users who
will see their advertisements and we may use any of the non-personally
identifiable attributes we have collected (including information you may have
decided not to show to other users, such as your birth year or other sensitive
personal information or preferences) to select the appropriate audience for
those advertisements. For example, we might use your interest in soccer to show
you ads for soccer equipment, but we do not tell the soccer equipment company
who you are. You can see the criteria advertisers may select by visiting our
advertising page. Even though
we do not share your information with advertisers without your consent, when you
click on or otherwise interact with an advertisement there is a possibility that
the advertiser may place a cookie in your browser and note that it meets the
criteria they selected.
To serve social ads. We occasionally pair advertisements we
serve with relevant information we have about you and your friends to make
advertisements more interesting and more tailored to you and your friends. For
example, if you become a fan of a Page, we may display your name and profile
photo next to an advertisement for that Page that is displayed to your friends.
We only share the personally identifiable information visible in the social ad
with the friend who can see the ad. You can opt out of having your information
used in social ads on this
help page.
To supplement your profile. We may use information about you
that we collect from other Facebook users to supplement your profile (such as
when you are tagged in a photo or mentioned in a status update). In such cases
we generally allow you to direct how that information is shared in your
privacy settings or give you the
ability to remove the content (such as allowing you to remove a photo tag of
you) or limit its visibility on Facebook.
To make Suggestions. We use your profile information, the
addresses you import through our contact importers, and other relevant
information, to help you connect with your friends, including making suggestions
to you and other users that you connect with on Facebook. If you want to limit
your visibility in suggestions we make to other people, you can adjust your
search visibility privacy
setting, as you will only be visible in our suggestions to the extent you
choose to be visible in public search listings. You may also block specific
individual users from being suggested to you and you from being suggested to
them.
Downloadable Software. Certain downloadable software
applications and applets that we offer, such as our browser toolbars and photo
uploaders, transmit data to us. We may not make a formal disclosure if we
believe our collection of and use of the information is the obvious purpose of
the application, such as the fact that we receive photos when you use our photo
uploader. If we believe it is not obvious that we are collecting or using such
information, we will make a disclosure to you the first time you provide the
information to us so that you can decide whether you want to use that feature.
Memorializing Accounts. If we are
notified
that a user is deceased, we may memorialize the user’s account. In such cases we
restrict profile access to confirmed friends, and allow friends and family to
write on the user’s Wall in remembrance. We may close an account if we receive a
formal request from the user’s next of kin or other proper legal request to do
so.
5. How We Share Information
Facebook is about sharing information with others — friends and people in your
networks — while providing you with
privacy settings that you can use to restrict other users from accessing
your information. We share your information with third parties when we believe
the sharing is permitted by you, reasonably necessary to offer our services, or
when legally required to do so. For example:
When you make a payment. When you enter into transactions with
others or make payments on Facebook, we will only share transaction information
with those third parties necessary to complete the transaction and will require
those third parties to agree to respect the privacy of your information.
When you invite a friend to join. When you ask us to invite a
friend to join Facebook, we will send your friend a message on your behalf using
your name. We may also send up to two reminders to them in your name. If your
friend does not want us to keep their information, we will remove it at their
request on this
help page.
When you choose to share your information with marketers. You
may choose to share information with marketers or electronic commerce providers
that are not associated with Facebook through on-site offers. This is entirely
at your discretion and we will not provide your information to these marketers
without your consent.
To help your friends find you. By default, we make certain
information you have posted to your profile available in search results on
Facebook to help your friends find you. However, you can control who has access
to this information, as well as who can find you in searches, through your
privacy settings. We also partner
with email and instant messaging providers to help their users identify which of
their contacts are Facebook users, so that we can promote Facebook to those
users.
To give search engines access to publicly available information.
We generally limit search engines’ access to our site. We may allow them to
access information set to the “everyone” setting and your public search listing
(but you can turn off your public search listing in your
privacy settings).
To help improve or promote our service. Sometimes we share
aggregated information with third parties to help improve or promote our
service. But we only do so in such a way that no individual user can be
identified or linked to any specific action or information.
To provide you with services. We may provide information to
service providers that help us bring you the services we offer. For example, we
may use third parties to help host our website, send out email updates about
Facebook, remove repetitive information from our user lists, process payments,
or provide search results or links (including sponsored links). These service
providers may have access to your personal information for use for a limited
time, but when this occurs we implement reasonable contractual and technical
protections to limit their use of that information to helping us provide the
service.
To advertise our services. We may ask advertisers outside of
Facebook to display ads promoting our services. We may ask them to deliver those
ads based on the presence of a cookie, but in doing so will not share any other
information with the advertiser.
To offer joint services. We may provide services jointly with
other companies, such as the classifieds service in the Facebook Marketplace. If
you use these services, we may share your information to facilitate that
service. However, we will identify the partner and present the joint service
provider’s privacy policy to you before you use that service.
To respond to legal requests and prevent harm. We may disclose
information pursuant to subpoenas, court orders, or other requests (including
criminal and civil matters) if we have a good faith belief that the response is
required by law. This may include respecting requests from jurisdictions outside
of the United States where we have a good faith belief that the response is
required by law under the local laws in that jurisdiction, apply to users from
that jurisdiction, and are consistent with generally accepted international
standards. We may also share information when we have a good faith belief it is
necessary to prevent fraud or other illegal activity, to prevent imminent bodily
harm, or to protect ourselves and you from people violating our
Statement of Rights and
Responsibilities. This may include sharing information with other companies,
lawyers, courts or other government entities.
Facebook Beacon. [We have announced a settlement of a lawsuit
related to the Beacon product: the Beacon product will be discontinued and this
language removed from the privacy policy upon approval of a settlement by the
court.] Facebook Beacon is a means of sharing actions you have taken on third
party sites, such as when you make a purchase or post a review, with your
friends on Facebook. In order to provide you as a Facebook user with clear
disclosure of the activity information being collected on third party sites and
potentially shared with your friends on Facebook, we collect certain information
from that site and present it to you after you have completed an action on that
site. You have the choice to have us discard that information, or to share it
with your friends. To learn more about the operation of the service, we
encourage you to read the tutorial
here. To opt out of the
service altogether, click
here.
Like many other websites that interact with third party sites, we may receive
some information even if you are logged out from Facebook, or that pertains to
non-Facebook users, from those sites in conjunction with the technical operation
of the system. In cases where we receive information from Beacon sites on users
that are not logged in, or on non-Facebook users, we do not attempt to associate
it with individual Facebook accounts and will discard it.
Transfer in the Event of Sale or Change of Control. If the
ownership of all or substantially all of our business changes, we may transfer
your information to the new owner so that the service can continue to operate.
In such a case, your information would remain subject to the promises made in
any pre-existing Privacy Policy.
6. How You Can View, Change, or Remove Information
Viewing and editing your profile. You may change or delete your
profile information at any time by going to your profile page and clicking “Edit
My Profile.” Information will be updated immediately. While you cannot delete
your date of birth, you can use the setting on the info tab of your profile
information page to hide all or part of it from other users.
Delete uploaded contacts. If you use our contact importer to
upload addresses, you can later delete the list on this
help page.
Deactivating or deleting your account. If you want to stop
using your account you may deactivate it or delete it. When you deactivate an
account, no user will be able to see it, but it will not be deleted. We save
your profile information (friends, photos, interests, etc.) in case you later
decide to reactivate your account. Many users deactivate their accounts for
temporary reasons and in doing so are asking us to maintain their information
until they return to Facebook. You will still have the ability to reactivate
your account and restore your profile in its entirety. When you delete an
account, it is permanently deleted. You should only delete your account if you
are certain you never want to reactivate it. You may deactivate your account on
your account settings page
or delete your account on this
help
page.
Limitations on removal. Even after you remove information from
your profile or delete your account, copies of that information may remain
viewable elsewhere to the extent it has been shared with others, it was
otherwise distributed pursuant to your
privacy settings, or it was
copied or stored by other users. However, your name will no longer be associated
with that information on Facebook. (For example, if you post something to
another user’s profile, and then you delete your account, that post may remain,
but be attributed to an “Anonymous Facebook User.”) Additionally, we may retain
certain information to prevent identity theft and other misconduct even if
deletion has been requested.
Backup copies. Removed and deleted information may persist in
backup copies for up to 90 days, but will not be available to others.
Non-user contact information. If a user provides your email
address to us, and you are not a Facebook user but you want us to delete your
address, you can do so on this
help page. However, that request will only apply to addresses we have at the
time of the request and not to any addresses that users provide to us later.
7. How We Protect Information
We do our best to keep your information secure, but we need your help. For more
detailed information about staying safe on Facebook, visit the Facebook
Security Page.
Steps we take to keep your information secure. We keep your
account information on a secured server behind a firewall. When you enter
sensitive information (such as credit card numbers and passwords), we encrypt
that information using secure socket layer technology (SSL). We also use
automated and social measures to enhance security, such as analyzing account
behavior for fraudulent or otherwise anomalous behavior, may limit use of site
features in response to possible signs of abuse, may remove inappropriate
content or links to illegal content, and may suspend or disable accounts for
violations of our Statement of
Rights and Responsibilities.
Risks inherent in sharing information. Although we allow you to
set privacy options that limit access to your information, please be aware that
no security measures are perfect or impenetrable. We cannot control the actions
of other users with whom you share your information. We cannot guarantee that
only authorized persons will view your information. We cannot ensure that
information you share on Facebook will not become publicly available. We are not
responsible for third party circumvention of any
privacy settings or security
measures on Facebook. You can reduce these risks by using common sense security
practices such as choosing a strong password, using different passwords for
different services, and using up to date antivirus software.
Report Violations. You should report any security violations to
us on this help page.
8. Other Terms
Changes. We may change this Privacy Policy pursuant to the
procedures outlined in the Facebook
Statement of Rights and Responsibilities. Unless stated otherwise, our
current privacy policy applies to all information that we have about you and
your account. If we make changes to this Privacy Policy we will notify you by
publication here and on the
Facebook Site Governance Page. You can make sure that you receive notice
directly by becoming a fan of the
Facebook Site Governance Page.
Consent to Collection and Processing in the United States. By
using Facebook, you consent to having your personal data transferred to and
processed in the United States.
