About Our Ads, Tracking and Your Choices
We conduct interest-based advertising. You may see Discover advertisements on other websites you visit from time to time. Some of these ads are based on your information we collect. This is called interest-based or online behavioral advertising. Discover uses interest-based advertising to target its advertising more effectively. These ads might be served on websites or on apps. They might also be served in emails. We might serve these ads, or third parties may serve ads.
How you can opt out of interest-based advertising. There are several ways you can opt-out of interest-based advertising.
- First, you can opt-out right from the ad itself. Ads served using interest-based advertising will have an Advertising Option icon in the ad. If you see that icon on Discover ads, you can click on it. You will then get an option to opt-out.
- Second, the Self-Regulatory Program for Online Behavioral Advertising program provides consumers with the ability to opt-out of having their online behavior recorded and used for advertising purposes generally.
If you opt out via methods above, your choice will be stored as a cookie. If you remove or delete cookies you will need to renew your preferences. Your choices are also device and browser-specific.
Tracking
We do not respond to browser-level "do not track" settings. However, your browser may give you the ability to control cookies. How you do so depends on the type of cookie. Certain browsers can be set to clear past and reject future cookies. If you block cookies on your browser, certain of our features may not work. Additionally, if you block or delete cookies, not all of the tracking activities we have described here will stop. Choices you make are both browser and device-specific.
