Updating Our Terms and Policies: Helping You Understand How Facebook Works and How to Control Your Information

Over
the past year, we’ve introduced new features and controls to help you
get more out of Facebook, and listened to people who have asked us to
better explain how we get and use information.
Now, with Privacy Basics, you'll get tips and a how-to guide for taking charge of your experience on Facebook. We're also updating our terms, data policy and cookies policy to reflect new features we've been working on and to make them easy to understand. And we're introducing improvements to ads based on the apps and sites you use off Facebook (online behavioral advertising) and giving you control.
These updates take effect on January 1, 2015. As always, we welcome your feedback about our policies.
