Anyone using a Facebook account inevitably shares data with the social network and its partners. What users can restrict is the amount of shared data.One way to do this is to stop using apps in Facebook altogether by turning off the app platform. However, there’s no guarantee that this will be adhered to.To get an overview of the apps you’re using and the Facebook profile data they have access to, just click on "Settings", then "Apps". Here you’ll find the Facebook apps you’re actively logged onto.This is also where you can disable the complete app platform for your own profile. But this also means that third parties won’t be able to get access to your information through the apps you’re using.If you want to continue using Facebook apps and games, you can adjust their permissions.
