Im Kontext von Revisionssicherheit gehe ich davon aus, dass tatsaechlich Einschaltung von Werbung, und nicht Einschaltung von Fernseh- oder Radiogeraeten gemeint ist.

agree  Annett S. Brown, MBA: I mostly hear people say "ratings".

neutral  ArnoTranslates: ratings indicate size of audience, not insertions. Viewing is reflected in the ratings and doesn't indicate airing data. Audience data are independent of airings.

agree  Peter Sass (M.A.): This is probably meant here, but you'd better check the context, as 'Einschaltdaten' in general could also refer to viewer ratings (not in conjunction with controlling etc. though). Cf. http://www.wortwarte.de/Archiv/Datum/d010512.html#w7).

  -> Thank you, Peter. See my added note above.

agree  Goldcoaster: I would prefer "air data" or "airing data"/Das ist natürlich was anderes.

  -> Danke, Goldcoaster. M.E. bedeutet "Daten" in diesem Zusammenhang plural von Datum.
