Facebook has begun implementing a draft of its sorts of its privacy policy with a Facebook-like design aesthetic.
The content of the revised privacy policy mirrors that of Facebook's official privacy policy, although it's written in a far more appealing way.
The draft policy contains the disclaimer: "We're working on communicating about privacy in a simpler, more interactive way. Let us know what you think by commenting here. This isn't our official privacy policy, which can be found here," with a link to the old policy.
"At Facebook, we are constantly developing new experiences and features to help you control your information," Facebook said in a blog post. "Some of our recent work includes simplified privacy settings and publisher privacy controls that let you select your audience every time you post something on Facebook. We plan a lot more innovations in the months ahead so check back from time to time.
"However, there is more to controlling your information than just settings," the site added. "It's also important that you understand how information is used and what your choices are. That's why the privacy team took on a new project and applied Facebook's unconventional, innovative spirit to develop a new privacy policy written for regular people."
The new policy is designed to be easy to understand, visual and interactive, and focus on the questions people are most likely to ask, it said.
