Login, Right Top “Account”,
Scroll down “Application Setting”
Right at the “Show” menu/word
scroll down to “Allowed to Post” & “Granted Addition Permission” click at the “X” at the right site……

This is just deny to access the application, but the Games/Application data still there, other friends who add you before still can see your data/info in the games, when they post some things/info, you still can receive.

some one please advise…

Hi – nice try. But the applications are not REALLY removed. They are just hidden and de-activated.
Try to go back into one of them and they sure has saved your old data.
Besides… you can still find them attached to your account deep down in facebook.

I did all the steps to go to the page to delete applications from Facebook. At the top of the page and to the right there is a drop down menu where I clicked on ‘Authorized’ it shows the applications but no remove button, it just has ‘Edit Settings & ‘Profile’ Help

I can’t send update, confirm friends, or open the drop down box to edit applications. Any idea?

I’m trying to find out if the access to personal information that many if not all applications seem to need to work ceases once they are removed.

I couldn’t find anything to that nature on the Facebook site and there isn’t a contact form or email address to ask just the following info that only makes reference to ‘certain information’ not being held for more than 24 hours…what is that certain information and what can they hold??

“The Facebook Platform Developer Terms of Service prohibit third party applications from storing certain information for longer than 24 hours, and Facebook takes action on developers who are found to be violating this. If you think an application is storing your information improperly, please let us know by reporting the application on its “About” page. You can also control what information applications can access from the “Applications” section on the Privacy page.”
