Understanding 'Public' Content

Content is considered public if it can be viewed without logging in or being connected to you.

  • Even 'friends only' posts may be visible through reshares
  • Tagged content on others' public profiles can reveal information
  • Search engine caching may expose previously public content

Privacy Setting Changes

Be aware that changing privacy settings after submission may be noticed.

  • Officers may have already viewed your profile before changes
  • Sudden privacy changes after application may raise questions
