Facebook Inc (FB)’s New Mind-Blowing Service: Is It at ‘Home’ With Your Privacy?

2. Is Facebook Keeping My Data Forever?

Facebook Inc (NASDAQ:FB) says that Facebook Home will collect information whenever the user interfaces with it, whether its liking a post or comment, sending a message or recording its own post. Facebook says this information, including the apps listed in the Home launcher, would be stored for 90 days. (How do we know that? That’s not covered here.) If a user buys the HTC First, Facebook will store information, including notifications (but not the info in the notification) for 90 days, then all identifying  markers in the data would be removed.
