Downloading a back up of facebook profile

Asked By Keith D Williams 10 points N/A Posted on - 02/28/2015

I recently wanted to stop using facebook for some personal reason. The only thing has been stopping me up till now is the fact that I have a lot of personal information posted throughout the years. I heard that most sites have a backup that can be downloaded and kept? Is this applicable for facebook and how to do that?
