Facebook is once again trying to simplify its privacy policy, largely to address criticisms that it's too complex and lengthy for the average user.
Laid out with illustrations into short
subsections, the new policy explains what types of information Facebook collects and how it uses the data.
The new policy is 70% shorter than the old one.
Many of the changes are cosmetic, designed tomake the policy easier to digest.
Still, it helps to go through it to get an idea of all the things Facebook knows about you.
Users have until November 20 to comment on the proposed changes or ask questions.
A finalized version will take effect soon after that.
Here are five things to remember about Facebook's data policies.
