CONTROLS FOR DISPLAY-ONLY FEATURES

Most web browsers, as well as some mobile operating systems and mobile applications, contain a Do-Not-Track ("DNT") function or setting that you may enable to indicate your privacy desire not to have your online browsing activity recorded and collected. There is currently no consistent technical standard for identifying and executing DNT signals.
