In this case, FIFA licences the rights to show the games to individual broadcasters - they may well have stipulations in the contract as to what can be shown as overlaid graphics or in the surrounding programming.
Still trying to work out what happened with the bars on ITV earlier - at half time, Laura Woods blamed the world feed, though I can't find much mention of it on the twitter from other countries. The bars are definitely from IBC though.
Though I wasn't listening intently, the feed also appeared to go on Five Live if that's anything to go by.
