Are you tired of Facebook but not ready to say goodbye forever?
Wait to hit delete! Facebook can hide your page through "unpublishing."
Most people think deleting is the only way to vanish on Facebook, but unpublishing lets you take a break without losing everything.
You can bring your page back anytime you're ready to rejoin.
Let’s discuss what you could do to unpublish a Facebook page easily.
How to Unpublish a Facebook Page
Instead of deleting your page, make it invisible to Facebook users. It could be recovered during the 14-day deletion wait period.
On Desktop Computers
You can unpublish your Facebook page using your desktop or PC by following these steps:
Step 1: Go to your Facebook page and select "Settings and Privacy" in the upper right corner of your screen.
Step 2: Select “Settings” again from the drop-down menu.
Step 3: To access the visibility options, choose "Page Visibility".
Step 4: A dot will appear in the box next to "Page Published." Click "Page unpublished" to pick that option, then "Save Changes."
Step 5: Facebook will ask why you are making your page invisible. Select your answer and then click "Next."
Step 6: Respond to the question relevant to your first answer and click "Unpublish" to finish the procedure. You can return at any moment and "Publish" your page again.
On Android and iOS Devices
If you don't have access to a PC and need to unpublish a Facebook page, you can use the Facebook Business Suite app on your mobile device. Here's how.
Step 1: From your Facebook main page, click the three lines in the upper right corner of your screen.
Step 2: Scroll down and tap "Settings and Privacy."
Step 3: Select “Settings” again from the drop-down menu.
Step 4: In the Account Center, tap See More.
Step 5: Then tap the Personal Details.
Step 6: Tap Account ownership and control.
Step 7: Select your Facebook account or page under the notification to proceed.
Step 8: Then select Deactivation or deletion.
Step 9: Then tap Continue and follow the instructions to confirm.

Unpublishing your Facebook page removes it from the public eye, but it does not mean you are entirely tracking-free. Even unpublished pages may contain data that Facebook or third-party trackers can gather.
These trackers can operate in the background, collecting data on your internet activity while you are not actively using the page. If this data is unsafe, it may be compromised or sold for advertising. Use PurePrivacy to recover complete control over your privacy and prevent data theft.
