DESCRIPTION
Sharing things on a social network (e.g., Facebook) shouldn’t lead to a surprise of who gets to see it. Yet, the surprises are what make most people feel that their privacy is being infringed. It’s not that we don’t want to share, it’s that we want to understand exactly how and with whom we are sharing. However, the privacy settings are often confusing and difficult to find. Participants in this webinar will gain a better appreciation for online privacy, and leave better equipped to adjust their own privacy settings in Facebook. While the focus will be on particular settings in Facebook, the principles will be applicable for many social networks

What does privacy really mean?
When you post to social media, you’ve already made the decision to share. Therefore, privacy in this context usually means that things are shared in the way and with whom you intend.
Privacy settings in general
• Each platform has defaults• You need to decide if the defaults are
right for you• Settings change as the platform
evolves• There is no one right answer – it is up
to you
Facebook Privacy Checkup
Facebook Privacy Settings
The settings related to privacy are spread out across a number of areas.

POLL
Have you ever adjusted your Facebook privacy settings?
YES or NO
Who’s an acquaintance?
https://www.facebook.com/help/www/209850012449913
The Acquaintances list is for friends you don’t need to stay in close touch with. People on your Acquaintances list will rarely show up in your News Feed. You can also choose to exclude these people when you post something, by choosing Friends except Acquaintances in the audience selector. No one will be notified if you add them to this list.
Friends of friends
Your friends and anyone they are friends with. Facebook has started hiding this a bit, so you won’t see it as often as you once did. When sharing a post, you need to go into Custom to get to it.
Friends Lists
You can create lists to make it easier to share posts with or view posts from a subset of all your friends. Some lists, like acquaintances, restricted, and family have special properties. Facebook also creates special automated lists based on education and employment.
