In an effort to provide transparency and empower their viewers, NBCUniversal has introduced opt-out options for the sale and sharing of personal information, as well as targeted advertising activities. The broadcasting company is giving residents of specific states listed in their Privacy Policy the opportunity to exercise their privacy rights and have control over their data.

The opt-out options allow users to choose whether their personal information, such as names and email addresses, can be sold or shared for targeted advertising purposes. By toggling off the "Allow Sale of My Personal Info or Sharing/Processing for Targeted Ads" button, users can ensure that their data is not used for these activities.

It's important to note that these choices are specific to the brand's website or app on the browser or device where the selection is made. Users must make the Manage Preference choices on each site/app and browser/device they use to access NBCUniversal's services. Clearing cookies will also require users to renew their opt-out choices.

Residents of the states listed in NBCUniversal's Privacy Policy have the additional option to opt out of the sale or sharing/processing of information such as cookies and device identifiers. By switching the toggle off, users can prevent their data from being used for targeted ads on the site/app they are currently using.

However, it's worth mentioning that if a user is not detected to be in one of the states listed in NBCUniversal's Privacy Policy, the opt-out choices will not apply, even if the toggle is switched off.

While opting out of targeted advertising may result in seeing ads that are less relevant or solely based on first-party information, NBCUniversal values their viewers' privacy and wants to ensure they have control over their data.

To further exercise their privacy rights, users who wish to opt out of the use of their email and other personal information for targeted advertising activities can complete the Opt-Out Form provided by NBCUniversal.

NBCUniversal emphasizes the importance of these opt-out options by assuring their viewers that certain Cookies are required for service functionality, including security and fraud prevention, as well as enabling purchasing capabilities. Blocking these Cookies may result in certain parts of the site not functioning properly.

Viewers are encouraged to stay informed and take control of their privacy preferences online. NBCUniversal's commitment to transparency and user choices is a reflection of the company's dedication to providing a more relevant online experience for their viewers while respecting their privacy rights.

As entertainment enthusiasts continue to enjoy the latest news, gossip, and celebrity updates, NBCUniversal takes a step further in valuing their viewers' privacy by offering these opt-out options for personal information sharing and targeted advertising activities.
