Protect Your Browsing Data and Privacy while Using Facebook

Last month, the Cambridge Analytica scandal put the Facebook users’ data privacy leak under the spotlight. According to Mark Zuckerberg's FB post, Kogan used Facebook Platform to gain millions of Facebook users' privacy data and sold them to Cambridge Analytica. Mark Zuckerberg apologized for this Privacy leaking. But those Facebook users’ privacy was shared out and they had to face the coming potential risks by their own.

To avoid your privacy of being used by any malicious third-party apps in Facebook or Facebook itself, here are several things you may need to do now.

1. Check if your data is leaked to Cambridge Analytica 

Visit Facebook’s help center and type in “Cambridge Analytica,” or try this link. Log in, if you’ve got a note like this:

Then congrats, your data is not leaked to Cambridge Analytica. But if the message shows you or one of your friends logged into”This Is Your Digital Life” app, your data might have been shared.

2. Check your authorised third-party apps in Facebook

Although Facebook has updated their polices: Share limited information to the third-party apps. It’s better to permit trusted apps to access your data and figure out what information they’ve accessed. You may:

Then all the authorised third-party apps are listed here. You may view and edit the app’s accessing permission details. Or directly Removed them if you do not need them anymore.
