Groups are used for collaboration and allow discussions, events, and numerous other activities. They are a way of enabling a number of people to come together online to share information and discuss specific subjects. They are increasingly used by clubs, companies and public sector organizations to engage with stakeholders, be they members of the public, employees, members, service users, shareholders or customers. Groups can have three different levels of privacy settings:
* "Open" means both the group, its members and their comments are visible to the public (which includes non-members) but they cannot interact without joining.
* "Secret" means that nothing can be viewed by the public unless a member termin
specifically invites another user to join the group.<ref>{{cite web|url = https://www.facebook.com/help/220336891328465|title = What are the privacy options for groups?|date = |accessdate = |website = Facebook Help Center|publisher = |last = |first = }}</ref> Previously, in October 2010, there were version 0 (legacy) and version 1 (current) groups.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.facebook.com/blog.php?post=434700832130 |title=New Groups: Stay Closer to Groups of People in Your Life |publisher=Facebook |accessdate=2013-06-14}}</ref> Version 1 or "new" groups can contain the name of the group in their URL if the email-address of the group is set. Groups do not have a RSS feed to export the wall or the member list, such as Pages or Events have, but third parties provide such service if the group is set to an "open" privacy setting. All groups have since been migrated to a single design.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://developers.facebook.com/docs/apps/migrations/completed-changes#july_2013 |title=Facebook Migrations: Removing 'version' field for Groups |publisher=Facebook |accessdate=2016-02-09}}</ref>
