Here are some precautions one can take to safeguard their social media account without deleting it:
1. Turn off your location access
Turn off your location access. With your location data, Facebook has access to your location all the time. If you have installed apps on your phone which use Facebook API, then it is likely that such third-party services are using that data. You can change the location permissions in the Settings option in your phone. On Facebook, you can open the Account Settings, tap Location in the drop down and then change access from on to off.

2. Remove suspicious apps using Facebook API
third-party apps access our Facebook data. Just like Cambridge Analytica.
To check how many such apps are hoarding your data, you can click on the inverted triangle button when you open Facebook on your desktop. Then click on settings. On the left hand side, you will find Apps. Click through to find out which apps have access to your Facebook data. Here, you can remove the apps which you think are questionable.

3. Check your Share Settings
Facebook lets you choose who can view your posts on the social networking site. You can choose to limit the audience for the posts you share. The feature also allows you to limit the reach of posts that you have already shared in the past.
Besides managing who can send you friend requests on Facebook, you can also see whether your personal details like email address and mobile numbers are being used to find you on Facebook. This option lets you control whether strangers or people you've shared your phone number with can find you.
In a section called 'How people can find and contact you', Facebook lets you choose whether you want to make your friend list public or not.

4. Remove targeted Ads
Advertisers have access to the trail of data that you leave behind when you like pages, travel to places or attend events, participate in activities or eat in restaurants. Your Facebook ads are targetted using such information like your relationship status, job title, education, etc.
Luckily, you have an option to disable these preference for ads.


In the 'About Me' section of Facebook, it's probably safer to divulge as little information as you can. If you don't remember which parts of your profile details are public. You can go through Facebook's Privacy Check-up by clicking on the question mark icon on the top right corner.
This feature lets you edit/delete everything you have shared on Facebook. It includes the basic information like the city you live in, your birthday, email address and phone numbers.
