Facebook is Watch Hana ni Keda Mono: Second Season Onlineopen to increased oversight from the U.S. government as part of a settlement over its privacy practices.

According to the Washington Post, the social networking company would be required to submit new products and services to the Federal Trade Commission for review.

Facebook founder and CEO Mark Zuckerberg and other top company executives would also be required to “assess the company’s privacy safeguards and sign off on them” every quarter as part of the deal. This report would be provided to independent members of a committee on Facebook’s board tasked with overseeing the company’s data collection practices.

In addition to the committee, Facebook would need to “swiftly” report data privacy issues to the FTC as well as provide a more rigorous review of third-party app developers in order to avoid such privacy mishaps in the first place.
