Another Places function may enable pals to share your area-- even if you are not presently there as well as if you have currently disabled self-check-in. Friends using Places can check you in or "tag" you at a particular location.

KEEP IN MIND # - If you're checked-in on your own or by a good friend, your presence at the location shows up to anyone that either you or your buddy permits, based on your pal's and your personal privacy settings.

Your name will appear on the area's Places page, if there is one, so everyone at the location can see that you exist. If you are tagged by a good friend, your presence at the area is seen by your good friends or whoever they permit to see their posts, subject to their (not your) privacy settings.

You must approve a check-in demand, but you are just given two options: "Yes" and "Not Now.".

Again, there is an easy way to disable this function:.

1. Go to your Facebook account's "Privacy Settings.".
2. Click "Tailor settings" in the "Sharing on Facebook" section.
3. Under "Things others share," find the alternative "Friends can check me into Places.".
4. Select "Disable" from the list of alternatives. You have now disabled this function.

The image below is exactly what your settings ought to look like once you have finished these steps.
