For residents of specific states mentioned in the 'Your Rights' section of our Privacy Policy, we acknowledge the receipt of your Global Privacy Control signal or your decision to opt out via the toggle provided. However, it is important to understand that there is an additional step required. To completely opt out of the "sale" or "sharing" of your personal contact information, including your name, email address, and other related personal details, or to stop processing this information for targeted advertising, you must fill out the form provided below. For individuals located in other areas, please be aware that if our system does not recognize your location as one of those specified in the 'Your Rights' section of our Privacy Policy, we cannot guarantee that your preferences will be respected by all third parties, even if you choose to disable this option.
Your Privacy Options: How to Opt-Out of Information Sharing and Targeted Advertising
When you engage with our services, it may be necessary to disclose personal information to third parties, partners, and NBCUniversal’s Related Businesses as outlined in our Privacy Policy. Under applicable laws, some of these interactions may be classified as a "sale" or "sharing" of your information. Residents of relevant states can find more details here. To opt out of such practices, please adhere to the following steps. By opting out, you will also prevent the processing of your personal information for targeted advertisements.
Initially, to protect direct contact information such as your name and email address, you are required to complete the form provided. Subsequently, for cookies and device identifiers, you need to disable the "Allow Sale/Share/Targeted Ads" toggle under Manage Preferences by moving it to the OFF position (indicated by a grey color) and confirming your choice. Keep in mind that you must log in to your account to ensure that your choice carries over across different browsers and devices you access through your account. **Be advised that this action will close this dialogue box; therefore, it is imperative to open the Opt-Out Form before proceeding.**
Important Note: By opting out, you will also eliminate the possibility of your personal information being disclosed to our Related Businesses, except when necessary for service provision or with your consent for such disclosures. Although you will continue to see advertisements, they may not be as relevant and will be based solely on the first-party information we have about you.
Your choices regarding cookies and device identifiers will apply to any devices you access while logged into your account if you make an opt-out or opt-in decision while logged in. If you are not logged in, your selection will only apply to the current browser, necessitating a renewal of your choice on each browser or device where you want it to take effect, particularly if you clear your browser cookies.
