Log in to your personal Facebook profile.

Click the white arrow next to the Home menu on the header. A list of options appears.

3
Click “Privacy Settings.” The Privacy Settings Web page appears.

Click the radio button for “Custom” in the Control Your Default Privacy section. The
Custom Privacy dialog box opens. Select “Specific People or Lists” or “Only Me” to limit access to your profile. Click “Save Settings.”

5
Click the “Edit Settings” link in the How You Connect section. The How You Connect dialog box opens.

Click to select the level of privacy for each category. For example, the category “Who can look up your profile by name or contact info?” includes the “Custom” option. The Custom Privacy dialog box includes limits such as “Specific People or Lists” and “Only Me.” Select your preferred option. Click “Save Changes.”

7
Continue selecting the privacy levels in the How You Connect dialog box. For example, select “Only Me” for the category “Who can see Wall posts by others on your profile?” to prevent anyone else from viewing your wall.

8
Click “Done.” The dialog box closes.

9
Click the "Edit Settings" link next to How Tags Work to open its dialog box. Set this section's Profile Review and Tag Review sections to "On." Turn off the feature that allows friends to check you into locations. For the Tags section's Maximum Profile Visibility category, click the "Custom" option and select the "Only Me" option from the Custom Privacy dialog box. Click "Save Changes."

Open the "Apps and Websites" section, turn off all platform apps and clear the check box for "Enable Public Search." Save these changes.

Click your profile name on the header to bring up your personal profile. Click the “Edit Profile” button near the header. The Basic Information page displays. Erase the “Current Location” and “Hometown” text boxes. Click the “Don’t show my birthday in my profile” option in the Birthday section. Hiding your birthday from your profile may deter identity theft. Click the “Contact Information” link in the side panel. Delete all information from this form. Click “Save Changes.”
