Recently, Facebook unveiled a new tool. Thanks to this tool, the company will improve the customer experience. The tool aims to give users across the world more control over how much personal browsing data is accessible to the social media network.
The tool called “Off-Facebook Activity” was rolled out on August 20, 2019. However, it was only available in Ireland, South Korea, and Spain.
Thank to “Off-Facebook Activity,” users can disconnect their personalities from their browsing history. As a result, Facebook can’t see which websites users visit.
Customers willing to use this tool should open Facebook, and the next step is to check their privacy settings. They can activate “Off-Facebook Activity” from the settings. Moreover, the tech giant will display information about this tool in the newsfeed. This new tool will help the tech giant to solve some of the issues connected with privacy.
