You control your Messenger experience.
Protecting your privacy
Who you talk to and what you share should be up to you. We’re dedicated to making sure Messenger is a safe, private, and secure place for you to connect with the people who matter. To do this, we’ve built tools that allow you to stay in control, secure your account, and stay safe on the platform.
KEEPING YOUR INFORMATION SAFE
Your messages are your messages.
We want you to know what information we collect and how we use it. We don’t use the content of your messages with other people for ad targeting. Ads are shown to you based on your activity across Facebook companies and products, your activity with other businesses, your activity on other websites and apps, and your location.
