Checked: 04 Sept 2026
Position: Paragraph 346 of 523

We work with our retail partners and selected brands to find potential customers who "look like" our existing customers on platforms such as Meta and Google for advertising purposes ('platform').

To do this, we use information about your general shopping habits (and those of similar households) to create large groups of customers that may be interested in seeing different advertisements of retail partners or selected brands. If you're within one of these groups for a given campaign, we may share some basic data about you (and the other customers in the group) with the platform. This is so that the platform can find and show adverts to other users of its platform who have similar interests to you.

The data we share for these purposes is always obscured to protect your identity and is promptly deleted.

You can stop our use of your data in this way by opting out of all marketing from Tesco via your tesco.com account or unsubscribing from our marketing emails. You can also opt out of being included in a platform's lookalike audiences directly via them.

What about other companies in the Tesco Group?

Tesco Personal Finance Plc is part of our Tesco Group and works with us to serve Tesco's shoppers by bringing them insurance and money services products. They use information we hold at Tesco to prepopulate application forms to make the process easier for you. You'll always have the chance to update your information.

The highlighted sentence is what the verdict quotes. The paragraphs above and below are shown so you can see it wasn't lifted out of a qualifying passage. They aren't part of the quotation.
