Smart TV Privacy and Security: Essential Settings to Review
This guide is for lawful, licensed streaming services and apps.
Smart TVs are connected computers. A few routine habits make them safer for everyone in the household.
Keep software current
Enable automatic updates for the TV and apps. Security fixes are most useful when installed promptly.
Use a secure network
Set a strong Wi-Fi password, use WPA2 or WPA3 where available, and keep the router firmware updated. Guest networks can be useful for visitors and smart-home devices.
Review data controls
Open the TV privacy menu and choose the data-sharing and advertising settings you are comfortable with. Remove apps you no longer use and sign out before selling or giving away a device.
For service-specific help, always use the official documentation and support channel for the provider you use.
