Meta collects almost everything: what you post, what you look at and for how long, device and location data, and data from other people and advertisers. They infer sensitive traits and use Meta AI conversations for ad targeting. Data is shared across all Meta products and with advertisers. You can adjust ad preferences and download your data, but you can't stop collection itself.

They don't run an ad business and explicitly prohibit staff from viewing your code except to fix support issues. The main caveats are AI product data collection, third-party marketing partners, and a California-specific admission that they may 'share' data for cross-contextual advertising for their own marketing.
