Facebook Privacy Settings setting, and stop Ad Tracking -

You've heard it before, but on Facebook You're the product being sold. This comes in the form of tracking data to serve you better advertisements. You give piles and piles of information Facebook every day, and all you get in return is the use of their service. And ads. You get a lot of ads.

What many people do not realize is that every time they connect to an application using their Facebook account, businesses get access to your account data. Now they will not get your name and phone number, but they will learn more about you and take your information to target you with advertising.

This article will help you gain some of your privacy back of these companies, and show you how to have more privacy global online

The first step for anyone who wants to be anonymous online is starting to hide your location, and encrypt your traffic. A VPN can do two things for you. Location tracking is a big part of many applications that you follow through Facebook. A hacker to take over the place you go, and your daily routine is not only scary, it's dangerous. Choose our VPN list of the best VPN providers . If privacy is important, I recommend IPVanish or private Internet access because they do not do any kind of data tracking.

Tell your cursor over each application. You will see the text appear next to each of them. You can change settings, or delete it completely. I recommend removing them completely if you do not use often. If you still want them, go into the settings for each and disable all unnecessary data.

Notice that most of these applications will retain the data you have given already. You can get them to remove by visiting each privacy policy, but be ready to have a little time. I recommend leaving it where it is and move forward.

Before deleting one of these applications have a look at what they follow. Often they are not just follow you. They are followed by friends, where they work, where they live, and what events they attend! If you do not think it was important to adjust your Facebook privacy settings before and save on these applications, I hope you get now.

Some may also send you an email notification that you have disconnected your account. Kickstarter has done for me. Send them to the trash.
