London, UK – Users accessing AMP pages on BBC’s website may need to manage their consent settings for data collection. These settings are specific to AMP pages and may need to be set again when visiting non-AMP BBC pages. AMP technology is used to create lightweight mobile pages for faster loading times.
Strictly necessary data collection is done to ensure the functionality of web pages, storing limited information on users’ devices without explicit consent. Local storage is utilized to store consent preferences on the device for future visits. Optional data collection allows for personalized ads to be displayed to users outside the UK when consent is given on AMP pages.
Users have the option to reject data collection for personalized ads while still seeing non-personalized advertising. Settings can be adjusted at any time by clicking on “Ad Choices / Do not sell my info” in the website footer. The BBC website provides more information on how data is used for advertising purposes with its partners.
Managing consent settings is crucial for users to control their online privacy and the type of ads they are exposed to. By understanding and adjusting these settings, users can have a more tailored and personalized browsing experience on AMP pages. It is important for websites to be transparent about their data collection practices and give users the ability to make informed decisions about their privacy.
