Welcome to Facebook Privacy: How to Use Facebook Professionally and Keep
your personal life private
I'm Hannah Miller
project coordinator with health and nutrition in the center for family
development of university of minnesota extension
the purpose of this video is to show you how to configure the privacy settings
on your personal Facebook account so that you can use it for work purposes
and still keep your personal life private
we'll talk about the differences between a face book
page and a Facebook group
We'll also talk about the news feed: what shows up in your news feed
and what shows up and other people's newsfeeds
this discussion will help you decide what your privacy goals are
and after that
we'll talk about two tools that'll help you accomplish your privacy goals
the restricted list and
"View As..."
So let's start with the differences between a Facebook page and a Facebook
group
pages are for businesses, organizations, and brands to share their stories and
connect with people.
Pages are by nature very public and promote top-down communication
you can see on the simply good eating face book page at the post two we make
are much
marked its about time the posts are followers make
groups are closed circles of people that shared can keep in touch on face book
troops can be very
but very private
and promote lateral communication communication between participants
contest test group
i've done most of the posting
that you can see
that each post
is giving equal weight
groups can have three different privacy settings
openx closed concei cooked
let's take a look at these different group settings using facebook's help
center
if you choose this secret privacy option
for groups
no one will know the critics ests unless they're part of the curtain
you'll have to add participants or co-workers as friends
before adding them to the curtain
after adding tend to occur at the you can contact them
if you choose the closed privacy option for troops
no one except group members who will be people to see what what is posted in the
group
that anyone can see food this in the company
you do not have to add to participants our co-workers as friends
instead taken search for the troop and asked to join
we're going to talk about newsfeed next
the new seed the center column of your home page
the constantly updating list of stories from people and pages that you follow on
face book
newsfeeds stories include status updates photos
patios
links
activity complex
you can control what you see in your new c_d_ by editing settings filtering by
friends and managing updates from your friends
to attic settings click on the peninsula item that pops up
next to the news feed
to fill two bank funds
choose a list
from under the funds heading and the left navigation bar
to manage updates from your friends
click on the chevron that pops up and the upper break and corner
offense promised
i can click hired
and get more options
if i click on change what updates you get from
i get a number of options
if i don't want to receive any updates at all
i can click
and follow
you can control what your fancy and their newsfeeds typing attention to your
privacy settings
we'll talk more about that in the man
facebook's privacy table
says that the stories about what happens in a closed group id
can be seen by anyone
and that story's about what happens in a secret group
can only be seen maker memories
personally i have never seen a story about a closed group at that it wasn't a
number of in maine isi id
now it's time to talk about your prime segal's
i'm guessing you'll want to keep ninety percent of your face the posts private
from participants and co-workers
you may want to share at the occasional post that is work-related
you also probably want to keep your photos friends and other information
private
and if you want those percentages to be hundred-percent zero percent are fifty
fifteen
the same tools will play
the first step to meeting your privacy calls is to understand who can see your
posts
let's look at the privacy settings
who can see my stuff
verify if possible audiences
part of a look and see my future posts
public includes people who are not your friends on face book
people who are not in your school or work networks and anyone on the internet
friends includes everyone who is your friend on face book
except for people on your restricted list
we'll talk about the restricted list later
friends except acquaintances includes everyone who is your friend on face book
except for people and you're restricted list and people on your acquaintance is
less time
if you select only need to
that goes to an audience upon
the custom privacy settings lets you specified who is people and not able to
see the content you share
when you choose custom a pop-up box will appear
from the box you can choose to share per excluding with specific networks friends
and friends left
this control remembers your selections so future posts will be shared with the
same audience amongst you change it
if you want to change call your past posts so that only friends can view them
you can do that here
you're probably asking yourself
what the point of changing your past posts two fronts only used if you're
going to be friends the participants are co-workers
this is where lists comes and
the second step to meeting your privacy goals is to use the restricted list
for purposes of privacy
most useful list is the restricted list
which have added
to my favorites
the restricted list is for people you added as a friend
but to stop on to share with
like participants and co-workers
when you had some anti restricted list they will only be able to see your
public content
purple severe is that you take them and
people's do not get notified when you add them to this list
so how can you be shorter that your past only sees what you want her to see
used and if you add stool
and that's the third step a to meeting your privacy co-host
distillate ccr your timeline looks like to the public content other people
firsts click on the card in the bottom right corner of your cover photo
select p lands
now if you can see it a black bar near the top of the screen that says this is
what your timeline looks like too
public
if you are a number
i had had a picture of a stack of watermelon cuba's at the top of my
timeline
but highly share that with the times except restricted
now at the top post
is arrested sweet potato
recipe and
but double-check to make sure my past also only sees but the public seus
to you as a specific person
and taken a name
you can see it that nine bocce is clearly marked has restricted
and she sees exactly what would have shared with the public
when we exit d_o_s_
you can see it
my about section
is flushed out avital mooring
and the stock up on an island kiwi antenna is back
you can't even see that icon
that shows and shared it
just what the plans
if you want to make sure your about section is a little more private
click on the pencil icon that pops up in the upper right corner
and click on
opti info
for each section you can determine what level of privacy you want
for example under work and education
have chosen to share this with friends
under that name
i've shows and to share my current city
with the public
but my home town
with only me
since creating a second-place stock account violates facebook's terms
it's important to tighten up your privacy settings
and understand what you are sharing with his own with your current account
