Facebook is allowing users to clear data that has been linked to their account based on their activity on other websites and apps.
Axar.az reports citing foreign media, Facebook is allowing users to clear data that has been linked to their account based on their activity on other websites and apps.
The social network is making Off-Facebook Activity available to all after an initial launch in Ireland, South Korea, and Spain last August.
Using the tool, people can see and remove information about themselves that has been sent to Facebook by other apps and sites and is used to serve adverts.
When first announced, the tech giant said the feature allows users to disconnect future off-Facebook activity from their account, either in its entirety or just for specific apps and websites.
Facebook also said at the time that it expected the tool "could have some impact on our business", but believed that giving people control over their data was more important.
