How to use this feature

  1. Open privacy settings to review who can see profile data, records, and account-level visibility choices.
  2. Open security settings to review password, device activity, and connected-account controls.
  3. Use notification settings to reduce noise or increase alerts for posts, chat, jobs, and community activity.
  4. Use account-management actions like download data, deactivate account, or submit a deletion request only after reviewing the consequences.
