Accounts Center is a place to manage connected experiences (such as logging in across your accounts) across your Facebook, Instagram and Meta accounts.

You can choose to add or remove accounts from an Accounts Center at any time. If an account is removed from an Accounts Center, that account will live in its own Accounts Center where you can manage settings.

Settings you’ll be able to manage in Accounts Center

Some of the settings you currently manage for your Meta account are moving to Accounts Center, including the following:

• Personal details: Update your contact information, birthday, manage your identity confirmation, adjust your memorialization preferences, delete or deactivate your account.
• Password and security: Manage your password, two-factor authentication, login alerts, login activity, and where you’re logged in.
• Your information and permissions: Adjust how you upload contacts, manage your search history and browser or cookies preferences. You can also download, access, transfer or manage your information, and manage your activity off-Meta technologies.
• Ad preferences: Adjust your preferences for the ad topics you see, advertisers you’ve recently seen, and your ad settings. You can also see your recent ad activity or advertisers you’ve recently seen on your Instagram and Facebook accounts you’ve added to the same Accounts Center.
• Payments: Manage settings for Meta Pay.

To make it easier to control your preferences across your accounts in one place, there are some settings that will need to be the same across all accounts in the same Accounts Center. These settings include some ad preferences including your ad topic preferences and activity information from ad partners.

When needed, we’ll adjust these settings to match across your accounts, if you add accounts to the same Accounts Center that previously had different setting selections (for example, your Facebook and Instagram accounts have different ad topic preferences). You can change these settings in Accounts Center, under Account settings, at any time.

You can remove accounts from an Accounts Center at any time if you’d like to manage these settings differently for each account in their own Accounts Center. Once you remove accounts from an Accounts Center, any changes that were made to these settings while the accounts were in that Accounts Center, including the settings we adjusted for you, will still apply to these accounts until you change them. The settings will not revert to the selection made before adding the account to an Accounts Center.

Settings that are not moving to Accounts Center:

You’ll still manage settings that only affect your experience on a single app within the settings menu on that specific app. These settings include:

• Preferences that are specific to that experience (for example, Activity Log for Facebook, Notifications for Instagram, language settings for Meta Quest)
• Device settings for a specific app (for example, Dark mode, Media Settings - Video and Photos, Cellular data usage)
• Who can see and interact with you and your posts in a specific app (Profile Locking, Profile and Tagging)
