This MASSIVE list of things that Facebook knows about you can be a tad scary but for those of you interested you can amend these ‘preferences’, ideal if you’re sick of seeing adverts for exercise classes when all you want to do is sit in the lounge eating ice-cream, watching Saturday night TV and already planning to repeat the process tomorrow night as well.
First of all remember Facebook is free because YOU are the product they’re selling to advertisers!
