What happens to your Facebook account after you pass away

Most of us probably have a good scroll through Facebook multiple times a day, checking to see what our friends and family have been up to or what news they have to share.

The social networking site is ideal for posting photos and memories, as well as sharing your interests and passions, and looking back on old posts can bring a real sense of warmth and nostalgia.

It's been around for over a decade, meaning plenty of us will have documented some part of our lives on it. And although it might be morbid to think about, it turns out you can keep your account and all your memories alive even when you pass away.
