Advertising
Only in connected mode, by default your TV uses an advertising
identifier to track your TV usage. You can change the privacy
settings on your TV in two ways: resetting the advertising identifier
and limiting ad tracking.
Reset the advertising identifier
Resetting the advertising identifier clears the prior usage history
that your TV stores, and then begins tracking again. From that
point forward, your new usage patterns affect the advertisements
you see on your TV.
1
From the Home screen menu, navigate to Settings > Privacy
> Advertising.
2
Highlight Reset advertising identifier. Press A to view more
information about this option. When you finishing reading the
information, press OK to close the More Information window.
3
Press OK to reset the advertising identifier, and then press
OK again to dismiss the verification message.
Limit ad tracking
You can limit Roku's tracking of your usage behavior by limiting ad
tracking. When you do, your TV will display ads that are not
personalized based on your TV's advertising identifier.
1
From the Home screen menu, navigate to Settings > Privacy
> Advertising.
2
Highlight Limit ad tracking. Press A to view more information
about this option. When you finish reading the information,
press OK to close the More Information window.
3
Press OK to select the Limit ad tracking check box.
Note(s)
If you perform a factory reset and then reconnect your TV, ad tracking is
●
restored until you repeat these steps.
Microphone
Your Roku TV does not have a built-in microphone. However
streaming channel providers can use the microphone on the Roku
voice remotes (only on select models) or on your mobile device
when the Roku mobile app is running. You can control whether
streaming channels have permission to use the microphone.
Note(s)
These settings affect only streaming channel access to the microphone.
●
They do not affect your Roku TV's Voice Search feature.
Channel microphone access
You can control which streaming channels have permission to use
the microphone, giving you control over how the microphone is
used by each streaming channel. The default setting is Prompt,
so no channel will be able to turn on the microphone without your
permission.

From the Home screen menu, navigate to Settings > Privacy
> Microphone.

●
streaming channel to use the microphone.
Never allow – Do not prompt, but never allow any streaming
●
channel to use the microphone.

basis, you can reset channel permissions to enable them to follow
the system-wide setting you specify under Channel microphone
access.
