Conclusion• Always think before you post. Just like anything else you post on web or send in an email, information you

share on Facebook can be copied or re-shared by anyone who can see it.• Although you choose with whom you share, there may be ways for others to determine information about

you. For-example, if you hide your birthday so no one can see it on your timeline, but friends post

“happy Birthday” on your timeline, people may determine your birthday.• When you comment on or “like” someone else’s story, or write on their timeline, that person gets to

select the audience. For example, if a friend posts a Public story and you comment on it, your comment will be Public.

Often, you can see the audience someone selected for their story before you post a comment; however, the person who posted the story may later change their audience.

• You can control who can see the Facebook Pages you've "liked" by visiting your timeline, clicking on the Likes box on your timeline, and then clicking "Edit."

• Sometimes you will not see a sharing icon when you post something (like when you write on a Page's wall or comment on a news article that uses our comments plugin). This is because some types of stories are always public stories. As a general rule, you should assume that if you do not see a sharing icon, the information will be publicly available.
