Facebook has released a list of 52 companies which were provided with deep user data access even beyond 2015. Notably, while Facebook had tightened rules on its platform to prevent abuse in 2014, select partners received exemptions to use user data even beyond 2015. “At that time we made clear that existing apps would have a year to transition at which point they would be forced to migrate to the more restricted API and be subject to Facebook’s new review and approval protocols. The vast majority of companies were required to make the changes by May 2015,” Facebook said.
