Show more MARKETING We deliver marketing and event communications to you across various platforms such as email, telephone, text messaging, direct mail and online. Where required by law, we will ask you to explicitly opt in to receive marketing from us. If we send you a marketing communication, it will include instructions on how to opt out of receiving these communications in the future. Honouring your marketing preferences is important to us. You have the right to opt out of receiving direct marketing and targeted online advertising. We use tools and technologies to deliver or display targeted marketing and advertising content on or through our Services, which may involve the use of cookies and related technologies, the tracking of IP addresses and/or assigning and tracking unique identification numbers. We also may engage in marketing and advertising activities through chat or messenger functionality available through our Services. We use email tracking technology including, without limitation, dynamic links and image files, when we send you marketing communications to review your engagement and the effectiveness and relevance of the communications. We use tools and technologies to distinguish known and unknown users of our Services and to record, review, track and analyse engagement and use of our Services (e.g. recording or tracking hovers, clicks, key word searches, personal information entered into forms, etc.). We may also engage in marketing activities on third-party platforms, including, without limitation, social media platforms; however, such activities are subject to the privacy statements and terms and conditions applicable to such third-party platforms. How to opt out of marketing Where we engage in direct marketing activities, including, without limitation, direct marketing via email, post, and telephone/mobile phone, we provide individuals the ability to opt-out or unsubscribe from such marketing activities. You can use the “Contact Us” feature of a particular Service, you can use the specific opt-out or unsubscribe mechanisms made available to you in connection with a specific type of marketing communication, you can discuss with your LSEG contact, or by contacting the Privacy Office. As an example, for email marketing activities, we provide several opt-out or unsubscribe options including, without limitation, via the opt-out/unsubscribe options in emails, through our email marketing preference centre, or through contacting the Privacy Office. Even if you opt out of receiving marketing communications, we may still send you service communications or important transactional information related to your accounts, subscriptions and applicable products (for purposes such as providing customer support). Interest-based advertising Interest-based advertising (“IBA”) allows us to deliver targeted advertising to users of our Services. IBA works by showing you advertisements, or sending you marketing emails, that are based on the type of content you access or read. For example, as you browse our Services, one of the cookies placed on your device will be an advertising cookie so we can better understand what sort of pages or content you are interested in. The information collected about your device enables us to group you with other devices that have shown similar interests. We can then display advertising to categories of users that is based on common interests. For more information about IBA, you can visit the Internet Advertising Bureau here. Opting out of IBA If you want to opt out of receiving interest-based advertising, it does not mean that you will no longer receive advertising when you are using our Services. It just means that we will not use your personal information for IBA and that any advertising you see will not be customised to you. You can exercise your online advertising choices here or by clicking the AdChoices icon in an ad and following the instructions. You may also opt out of receiving interest-based ads from many sites through the Network Advertising Initiative’s (NAI) Opt Out Tool and in the EU. You may also go to the Digital Advertising Alliance ("DAA") Consumer Choice Page for information about opting out of interest-based advertising and their choices regarding having information used by DAA companies. If you delete cookies, use a different device, or change web browsers, you may need to opt out again. Advertising on mobile devices Mobile devices have an identifier that gives companies the ability to serve targeted ads to a specific mobile device. In many cases, you can turn off mobile device ad tracking or you can reset the advertising identifier at any time within your mobile device privacy settings. Another tool you can use to control advertising on your mobile device is the AppChoices App. You may also choose to turn off location tracking on your mobile device. If you turn off ad tracking or location tracking, we will no longer use information collected from your device’s advertising identifier for the purposes of advertising. You may still see the same number of ads but they may be less relevant because they will not be based on your interests. Where we need your consent to gather information about your location we will obtain this from you.
