"The FTC takes very seriously recent press reports raising substantial concerns about the privacy practices of Facebook. Today, the FTC is confirming that it has an open non-public investigation into these practices," the agency said in a statement.
The FTC declined to confirm last week that it was investigating Facebook and whether it violated a consent decree the tech company signed with the agency in 2011.
The consent decree required that Facebook notify users and receive explicit permission before sharing personal data beyond their specified privacy settings.
A violation of the consent decree could carry a penalty of $40,000 per violation.
