This model has a built-in far-field microphone, which is the hardware hands-free voice control uses.

Automatic content recognition (ACR), including over HDMI

Has ACR

This model has Samsung's ACR feature (branded "Viewing Information Services"), which analyzes on-screen content — including over HDMI — to identify what's playing.

What ACR is and how to turn it off →

Samsung's US support article says ACR is optional and only runs if you opted in to the Viewing Information Services notice at setup or later in Settings, and that this applies to all Samsung smart TVs. `true` means the feature exists, not that it is on by default.

The Privacy Choices item in the Smart Hub menu leads to the same consents. Samsung's notices name the checkbox; the manual gives the menu path. Samsung's UK notice says it covers broadcast TV, apps and connected devices such as set-top boxes and consoles.

Interest-Based AdvertisingAds continue, less personalised

Untick it to stop ads being personalised. The number of ads stays the same.

In the UK the checkbox reads "I consent to Interest-Based Advertising". The Privacy Choices item in the Smart Hub menu leads to the same consents. To fully stop personalisation, also turn off "Improved personalized ads with Samsung account data" in your Samsung account (US). Samsung's notices give the checkbox name; the manual gives the menu path.

No setting to turn them off is documented. Samsung's UK notice says that withdrawing consent to Interest-Based Advertisements "will not reduce or prevent the delivery of generic or contextual advertisements", and that not opting in means you "will not reduce the number of ads you see".

These settings cover ads in the TV's own menus, not ads inside individual apps. Menus can change with software updates, so check again after your TV updates.
