You can request updates or corrections to your personal data to ensure it remains accurate, up-to-date, and complete by contacting us here.
Opting Out of Marketing Emails
You can unsubscribe from marketing communications by using the opt-out or unsubscribe link included in any email we send. However, even if you opt out of marketing messages, you may still receive non-promotional updates, such as account-related or policy communications.
Managing Online Tracking
You have options to control online tracking and reduce personalized advertising. We may collaborate with third-party providers to run promotional campaigns and ensure they reach users who could benefit from our Services. To achieve this, we only share the minimum necessary data to measure and improve campaign performance.
While responsibly managed advertising supports small and independent businesses by leveling the playing field with larger companies, we understand some users prefer to limit online tracking. Below are ways you can take control:
Adjust your browser or device settings to block cookies or tracking technologies.
Opt out of interest-based advertising directly via the tools provided by service providers.
Keep in mind, even after opting out, you may still see advertisements, but they will be less tailored to your interests. Additionally, limiting personalized advertising could impact the ability of smaller businesses to compete effectively.
Managing Cookies and Online Tracking
Here are steps you can take to limit cookies and online tracking, including options for personalized advertising:
Block Cookies
Most browsers allow you to manage cookies, including those used for interest-based advertising or online tracking (commonly called third-party cookies). By default, many browsers accept cookies, but you can change this in your settings.
Opt Out of Online Tracking
You can limit interest-based advertising as explained in our Cookie Policy. This includes opting out of personalized ad services provided by third parties.
Control Advertising IDs on Mobile Devices
Both Android and iOS devices allow you to reduce or disable interest-based advertising through device settings:
-
Android: Use "Opt Out of Interest-Based Ads" or "Opt Out of Ads Personalization."
-
iOS: Enable "Limit Ad Tracking."
Use Privacy-Focused Browsers or Plug-Ins
To block cookies and trackers used for targeted advertising, consider using privacy-enhanced browsers (e.g., Brave) or installing plug-ins like Privacy Badger or DuckDuckGo. These tools can block third-party cookies and trackers. You can also use browser add-ons to opt out of services like Google Analytics.
Platform-Specific Opt-Outs
Several platforms like Google, Apple, Instagram, TikTok and FaceBook provide their own tools to manage ad preferences. You can often control personalized ads on these platforms through their settings pages.
Important Notes
Device/Browser Specific
Many opt-out mechanisms are specific to the browser or device you are using. You’ll need to repeat the opt-out process on each browser or device you use.
Impact on Advertising
While opting out reduces personalized advertising, you will still see ads. However, these ads may be less relevant to your interests.
Why It Matters
Personalized advertising helps sustain many small and medium-sized businesses, enabling them to compete with larger companies and reach relevant audiences. While concerns about misuse exist, many third-party services aim to strike a balance between respecting privacy and providing meaningful ad personalization. The choice to opt out is yours, and we provide these tools to help you make informed decisions.
