Privacy Principles
We collect data directly from individuals who have opted to participate in our panels and surveys. We also collect data from our customers and partners.
Transparency – We seek to create trust in our processes for data collection, and our privacy policies provide clear notice regarding the data we collect and how we use it.
Control - We recognize that individuals should have the ability to make informed decisions regarding how their personal information is used/processed. We provide individuals with the mechanisms to make informed choices, understanding that the collection, use and/or processing of personal information is necessary to deliver our products and services.
Security – We use technical, physical, and organizational controls as part of a multilayered approach to data security. These controls provide data protection that is regularly reviewed by internal and external auditors to ensure the company gathers and processes data in ways that are consistent with its privacy policies, industry best practices, and applicable laws and regulations.

Comscore engages with several major privacy organizations, including the Future of Privacy Forum and the Interactive Advertising Bureau – Europe, to participate in the continued evolution of privacy practices of responsible public companies.
Privacy Trust Seals
Strong privacy practices are at the core of Comscore’s operations. We are proud to have developed clear disclosures to help our panelists understand their role in contributing to the data that Comscore’s clients use to improve their products. Comscore encourages all individuals who consider joining our research panels to read through the wealth of information that is provided on the panel’s websites. One thing that you will notice as you look through panel websites, is that there are several seals typically posted along the bottom or right edge of the home page. These seals demonstrate how outside organizations have certified or otherwise approved Comscore’s practices. Learn More
