Right from the very start I did not give personal information to Facebook or any other commercial sites I am a member of. My actual birthdate is only given to Government bodies, banks that have a need for that. Facebook does not really need your birthdate so any date that you can remember will do. It does not need to know details about your schools, location (apart from rough location area eg Australia NSW. It does not need to know if I am married or to whom.
Many of the applications on smart phones seem to want to know more about you than facebook just to play a silly game.
