Data analytics firm CubeYou, which collected information about users through personality quizzes, was suspended Sunday for misleadingly labeling its product as "for non-profit academic research" and then sharing the information with marketers, Facebook said, confirming a report by CNBC.
"These are serious claims and we have suspended CubeYou from Facebook while we investigate them. If they refuse or fail our audit, their apps will be banned from Facebook," Ime Archibong, Facebook vice president of product partnerships, said in a statement that thanked CNBC for bringing the matter to the social networking giant's attention.
