3 findings, in full

The first 3 of this report’s 15 key findings, complete — claim, reasoning, and the policy’s own wording.

Advertising & Profiling No direct setting Tubi may add publicly available information about your online and offline activity from other sources

What this means

Tubi says it may supplement what it collects with information from other sources, such as publicly available information about your online and offline activity from social media services, ad tech companies, advertisers, commercially available sources, Tubi's affiliates or business partners.

Tubi may add to the information it collects with information from other sources, such as publicly available information about your online and offline activity from social media services, ad tech companies, advertisers, commercially available sources, Tubi's affiliates or business partners.

Why this matters

What Tubi holds about you may include activity it learned from outside sources, not only what you did on Tubi.

What the policy says

We may supplement the information we collect with information from other sources, such as publicly available information about your online and offline activity from social media services, advertising technology companies, advertisers, commercially available sources, and information from our Tubi Affiliates or business partners.

What you can do

No setting found that directly changes this practice.

In the Tubi documents we searched for this finding, we did not verify a setting that changes this specific practice.

A broader option is available

Depending on your state, the access, deletion and correction requests Tubi’s state notices list; anyone may also ask, through the request pages in the policy’s account section, to access information Tubi holds about them, and to delete or correct information they provided directly to Tubi.

That is a wider action rather than a privacy setting for this practice — it changes more than this, and it is not the same as turning this off.

Sharing Tubi's California notice lists age or gender among data "sold" or "shared" for targeted ads

What this means

In its California notice, Tubi lists characteristics of protected classifications, such as age or gender, among the categories it has collected and "sold" or "shared" with ad tech companies and advertisers for targeted advertising in the last 12 months. Tubi notes that whether it did so depends on a resident's interactions with it.

Ad tech companies and advertisers may use cookies and similar technologies to collect demographic information, inferred interests, and information about your devices and browsers and your activity on them, to deliver ads more relevant to your interests.

Why this matters

What the policy says

As noted above, advertising technology companies and advertisers may use cookies and similar technologies to collect information such as demographic information, inferred interests, aggregated information, and information about the different devices and/or browsers you use and your activity on such devices and browsers, to assist them in delivering advertising that is more relevant to your interests. Such information may also be used to deliver more relevant advertising to you across marketing channels, including email.
