Set max privacy

When you pair Webcaster X2 with your Facebook account, you tell Facebook who can see posts made by Webcaster X2. This value is effectively a ceiling on the privacy level Webcaster X2 can set for your live streams.

For example:

This table shows you the available privacy settings (when streaming to your Timeline) based on the authorization level you gave Webcaster X2. You can change this authorization level by following the steps below the table.

Facebook authorization given	Webcaster X2 can set privacy to	What happens if...
 Public	Public, Friends of Friends, Friends, or Only Me	No restrictions.
 Friends of Friends	Friends of Friends, Friends, or Only Me	If you pick Public, Webcaster X2 actually sets the privacy to Friends of Friends.
 Friends	Friends or Only Me	If you pick Public or Friends of Friends Webcaster X2 actually sets the privacy to Friends.
 Only Me	Only Me	No matter what you pick, Webcaster X2 sets the privacy to Only Me.

Facebook sets these limitations to protect you from applications and streaming encoders you authorize. However if you made a mistake when you initially authorized Webcaster X2, or you want to change the authorization level, you can do so through Facebook.
