advertisements.

Youre probably familiar with seeing ads based on
what your friends have liked on the social
network, but you dont have to have your own
thumbs-up activity turned into marketing
fodder. From the Facebook Settings page,
choose Ads and then open up the Ads with my
social actions section. Change the drop-down list
at the bottom to No oneand prestothese kind of
ads are hidden.

2. Stop Facebook from tracking you outside of
Facebook

Facebook keeps eyes on you when youre off of the
site, but via the same Adspage, under Ads based
on my use of websites and apps, you can change
thisyoull still see the same number of
advertisements, just less well-targeted
ones. For a more comprehensive opt-out of this
cross-site tracking, visit the Digital
Advertising Alliance and follow the link
by Exercise your choice. Its also worth
installing a privacy protector extension like
this one to make sure.

3. Disconnect third-party apps
9
Its not just Facebook that knows what youre up
to on the social networkits all the other apps
youve connected or logged into using your
Facebook credentials. Fortunately, disconnecting
these apps isnt difficult. From Settings,
click Apps and then the Remove icon next to any
apps you want to boot out. If you
choose Edit instead, you can change the
permissions of the connected app, dictating what
info it has and what it can post.

4. Hide your Facebook profile from search engines
11
If someone searches for your name, then your
Facebook profile is probably going to be among
the top results . If youd rather have your
profile unlisted, you can effectively hide
yourself. Inside the Settings page on the site,
choose Privacy and then click Edit next to Do you
want search engines outside of Facebook to link
to your Profile? Note that it may be a few days
before the change takes effect.

5. Block unwanted content
13
Facebook also gives you more granular control
over the ads and content you see in your News
Feed, so you dont have to accept the status quo
if the site is targeting you with content that
you have no interest in. Open up the drop-down
menu next to any advert in the feed and pick Hide
advert to stop seeing similar sponsored posts.
Choose Why am I seeing this? to ban an advertiser
completely and access more advertising options.
