Not sure if there's a public document as granular as "information X", but that $5b FTC settlement came with a bunch of policies.

Also, the "clear history" feature should be rolling out (or maybe it already rolled out in your country) that lets you dissociate any 3rd party info from your profile.

Your company has proven it cannot be trusted and will do anything it can get away with and has already crossed the line of "lying is totally OK, and if we're caught we're just gonna publish a bullshit PR-speak fake apology".

Why should anyone trust it this time?

BTW I was wondering about that, I have a recurring reminder to check it every week and months after it was "launched" it still says I'm not eligible (I live in the USA). Do you know when it is actually going live?

I've just been checking the help page (https://www.facebook.com/help/2207256696182627) and waiting for the "The off-Facebook activity setting isn't currently available to you right now." thing to go away
