What's the difference between an HTML or JSON copy of my data?
When you request a copy of your information on Facebook, you can choose to receive it in an HTML or JSON format:
HTML: An easy to view format of your data on Facebook. You'll receive a ZIP file that, once opened and extracted, will contain an HTML file named index that you can open like a web page on your web browser. The ZIP file will contain folders with files, including any images and videos you've requested.
JSON: A machine readable format of your data that could allow you to transfer your information more easily when uploading it to another service.
You can also choose the quality of your media files (photos, videos) when you request a copy of your information. If you choose a higher quality version of your media, your download will be larger and take up more space.

To help protect your account, your download request will expire after a few days, and you can always request a new one.
Our security systems are always running to help mitigate threats before they reach you and your friends on Facebook, and we offer tools like Security Checkup and two-factor authentication as additional ways to improve the security of your account. Learn more about keeping your account secure.
Note: Keep in mind that your data request may contain private information. You should keep it secure and take precautions when storing or sending it, or uploading it to another service. You can always select specific sections when requesting a copy of your information.

What is public information on Facebook?

What is public information on Facebook?
Something that’s public can be seen by anyone. That includes people who aren’t your friends, people off of Facebook and people who use different media such as print, broadcast (example: television) and other sites on the Internet. For example, if you use our services to provide a real-time public comment to a television show, that may appear on the show or elsewhere on Facebook.
What information is public?
Information you share that is always public: Some of the information you give us when you fill out your profile is public, such as your age range, language and country. We also use a part of your profile, called your Public Profile, to help connect you with friends and family. Your Public Profile includes your name, gender, username and user ID (account number), profile picture, cover photo and networks. This info is also public. Some of the ways this helps us connect you are:

Your name, profile picture and cover photo help people recognize you.

Gender helps us describe you (example: "Add her as a friend").

Listing your networks (example: school, workplace) allows others to find you more easily.

Username and user ID (example: your account number) are in the URL of your profile.

Age range helps provide you with age-appropriate content.

Language and country help us provide appropriate content and experiences.
Information you share publicly: When you choose to share something with Public (example: when you select Public from the audience selector), it’s considered public information. If you share something and you don’t see an audience selector or another privacy setting, that information is also public. Learn more about using the audience selector to control who you share with when you post to Facebook.
Stuff other people share: If other people share info about you, even if it’s something you shared with them but did not make public, they can choose to make it public. Also when you comment on other people’s public posts, your comment is public as well.
Posts on Facebook Pages or public groups: Facebook Pages and public groups are public spaces. Anyone who can see the Page or group can see your post or comment. Generally, when you post or comment on a Page or to a public group, a story can be published in News Feed as well as other places on or off Facebook.
Remember that public information can:

Be associated with you, even off Facebook.

Show up when someone does a search on Facebook or on another search engine.

Be accessible to Facebook-integrated games, applications and websites you and your friends use.

Be accessible to anyone who uses our APIs, such as our Graph API.

What happens to content (posts, pictures) that I delete from Facebook?

What happens to content (posts, pictures) that I delete from Facebook?
When you choose to delete something you shared on Facebook, we remove it from the site. Some of this information is permanently deleted from our servers; however, some things can only be deleted when you permanently delete your account.

What categories of my Facebook data are available to me?

What categories of my Facebook data are available to me?
Tip: Learn how to download a copy of your Facebook information using the Download Your Information tool.
These are the categories of Facebook data that are available to you from your account [Table 1] as well as the Download Your Information tool [Table 2].
We store different categories of data for different time periods, so you may not find all data from the time you joined Facebook. You won't find information or content that you deleted because we delete that content from our servers.
Remember, you can access most of the content you post to Facebook by logging into your account. Also note the categories of data we receive, collect, and save may change over time. Learn more about your Facebook data in our Data Policy.

May I obtain any account information or account contents using a subpoena?

May I obtain any account information or account contents using a subpoena?
Account Contents
Federal law does not allow private parties to obtain the content of communications (example: messages, timeline posts, photos) using subpoenas. See the Stored Communications Act, 18 U.S.C. § 2701 et seq.
Parties to litigation may satisfy party and non-party discovery requirements relating to their Facebook accounts by producing and authenticating the content of communications from their accounts and by using Facebook’s "Download Your Information" tool, which is accessible through the Settings drop down menu.
If a person cannot access their content, Facebook may, to the extent possible, attempt to restore access to deactivated accounts to allow the person to collect and produce their content. However, Facebook cannot restore account content that had been deleted. Facebook preserves account content only in response to a valid government requests.
Account Information
Facebook may provide the available basic subscriber information (not content) where the requested information is indispensable to the case, and not within a party’s possession upon personal service of a valid subpoena or court order and after notice to affected account holders.
If you are domiciled within the U.S. or Canada, the subpoena must be a valid federal, California or California domesticated subpoena, addressed to and served on Facebook, Inc. If you are domiciled outside the U.S. or Canada, the subpoena or court order must be addressed to and served on Facebook Ireland Limited.
Any such subpoena or court order should be limited in scope to seek basic subscriber information only, and set out the specific accounts at issue by identifying them by URL or Facebook user ID (UID). Names, birthdays, locations, and other information are insufficient.
