Facebook privacy question? - smokeyjoejr1 - 11-09-2012 09:24 AM

I'm thinking about getting a Facebook page, and I just had one question about privacy settings. If I set my profile to private, I know that only the people I have set as friends will be able to see it. But will one of my friend's friends, who I do not have set as a friend, be able to see my profile by looking on my set friend's page?

If you set your profile to only where friends can see it then they will have to be set as your friend.

Ok if you have your profile set on private...like i do...ONLY your friends on your friends list can see your profile...so if your friends friend is not a friend of yours...then NO they cannot see your profile! Hope i helped!!

No. Only your friend will be able to see your profile if it is set on private. If your friend's friend looks on your friend's profile and clicks on your name to see your profile, they will not be able to see your profile, only information about you (your name, picture, network, your friends, etc.). If you want to be completely safe, you can set your profile so that nobody can search your name on facebook. This way one of your friend's friend can not click on your name from your friend's profile and your picture will show up as a question mark to them.
You just have to mess around with the security features to make your profile private.
Hope this helps you. Good luck!
