What does the notification that says that I share information from Facebook mean

Facebook is one of those platforms that in terms of data use needs to improve a lot. The latest scandals and the fact that he has come under the most critical eye has motivated Zuckerberg employees to look for a way to cleanse his image with good practices In what When it comes to privacy, Facebook offers a lot of control, but it remains unclear whether or not they respect all of our preferences.

The latest feature that Facebook has added to their ranks is an example of this, because now they will notify us with a new notification that warns us that we have logged in with our Facebook account and that we are sharing our profile information.As you can imagine, this notification will be very useful to know which services are using our account to log in, but it will not be the only advantage that this provides us.

The "Login with Facebook" notification will allow us greater control over our data

This notification, as we can read in the Facebook developer center, will be shown to us in two different cases:

• When we use our Facebook account to log in for the first time in a third-party service.
• When we log in with our Facebook account in any service after the previous credentials have expired.

This new notification will reach us, mainly, via mail although it is also possible that we will see it in the notifications of our main Facebook profile through the application installed on our mobile. It will allow us to know which applications use our login and when they do so. In this way we can prevent if an application is using our login without us having requested it.

In addition to controlling which applications log in, we can also see what type of data they have access to. Through the "Edit Settings" button we can choose what information we are sharing with these applications, easily cutting off any extraneous data that we do not want to share. It seems to us a great success that Facebook continues to work hard to improve its privacy options and we hope that in the future little or nothing remains of that Facebook in which data is leaked.
