How to Delete A Facebook Account Completely

We live in an age of overexposure where users are not careful about what they put online and companies collect data and use them in their business strategies. One of the most contentious issues in the Internet was, is and always will be the privacy. The debate about privacy on the Web and the protection of personal data used here will always continue.
Facebook is a typical example of the privacy issues, as their policies in this area have always been far from clear. Of course, after a few lawsuits and complaints, the company has finally made some decisions that seek transparency issue. One of them is related to completely eliminate the possibility of social network, a feature that was included a couple of months ago.
It happens that before the appearance of this option, leaving Facebook was close to impossible, since many residual data left in the hands of the company and who knows who else. All this was courtesy of “deactivation” of the profile; a kind of freezing it actually did not remove anything.
That is why we decided to compile this tutorial on how to delete a Facebook account and to ensure that there is no data stored in there minimize your amount. So if you want to increase your privacy on the Internet, do not hesitate to use the step by step method that we show below.
The cumbersome process of elimination trail
The first thing to do in this process is the removal of each of the labels in pictures that are in Facebook. This manual process is really tedious, especially for those who have had a very active life within the social network. However it is a necessary step to erase your tracks from the popular platform.
Once you’ve finished with this heavy tread, it’s time to make a complete copy of all your profile. Why would you want to do this? Because in the future may want to go back to Facebook and I think you can imagine how laborious it can be redone digital life you created on the site. To perform this copy you should go to your Account Settings and click on Download a copy of your information. This will download a file with your profile data, photos and publications, so it is recommended that you save it in a safe place.
After you’ve secured your data, it’s time to proceed with the deletion. To do this go to the following link and click where it says delete my account. Moreover, you must also make the process of removing all data that Facebook may have stored in their databases. To do it, you need to click on this link and choose the option I have a Facebook account you want to permanently delete. Failure to do this last step, there will still be a portion of your information on servers in the company, so your privacy will not be total.
Doing all this will make the amount of data left in the hands of Facebook is minimized. It happens that the company is committed to delete your profile if you indicate so at some point but if you agreed to give that information to third parties (such as when using certain applications that “need” to access information from your profile) then your data should be in the hands of other companies and the removal process will be complicated.
In this sense, then, the privacy debate continues in force and will surely be much longer. However, it is good to see that Facebook offers this possibility at least for those who want to cease to exist in one of the places where users are more likely to show their privacy.
