About your personalisation settings
We can give you more of what you want when we know you better. To make sure our messages and website are relevant to you, we create a user profile with the information we know about you and how you use our services.
How to turn off personalisation
Simply turn off âAllow personalisationâ in your account settings. Weâll stop any personalisation and only use your data for essential services, such as screening for fraud. If you do not have an account, you can contact us to turn this off.
What happens if you turn off personalisation?
We will no longer use your data to determine what you might be interested in. This means you wonât get any personal recommendations and any newsletters youâve subscribed to will be generic (although if youâve asked to receive alerts about specific artists or venues, youâll still receive these). We will still perform profiling activities where we need to do so to deliver our services to you, for example for fraud screening purposes.
Is turning off personalisation the same as turning off cookies?
No, theyâre separate. To control your cookies settings, you can use our cookies consent tool. See our Cookies Policy for more information.
