"Learning about privacy, playfully."

Interactive mini-game for Facebook educating users about privacy settings through a house metaphor. Launched in Asia-Pacific in 2021, expanded globally thereafter.

An engaging interactive experience to educate users about privacy settings on the Facebook platform. The core metaphor: your Facebook profile as a house, a personal space handled differently by everyone.

Three chapters walk users through controlling their audience, managing advertiser access, and securing their account. Each chapter contains actionable information about the corresponding Facebook settings.

01 — Concept

Privacy visualised as architecture.

A range of house models representing the introverted-to-extroverted spectrum of privacy. Early prototyping in Spline led to a full 3D experience running directly in the browser, with custom 3D icons tying the UI together.

Chapters with a clear purpose.

Each chapter presents easily accessible information with links to live Facebook settings, turning the experience into a usable resource, not just an explainer.
