Do-Not-Track Signals

In most cases you will need to change your web browser’s settings or add an application to your web browser to enable your browser to send a GPC Signal. Our websites will recognize GPC Signals for website users differently, based on the location of the user when they access our websites. For users that access our websites from U.S. states that have laws requiring recognition of GPC Signals, we will recognize and apply the GPC Signal to inactivate all of the cookies for that website, except for cookies that are necessary for the website to operate (“Strictly Necessary Cookies”). Additionally, if you are accessing our websites from one of these states, you can determine if your browser GPC Signal has been recognized by clicking “Cookies Settings/Your Privacy Choices” at the bottom of our Sites. A short message will appear at the top of the “Privacy Preference Center” indicating that “Your Opt Out Preference Signal is Honored”, i.e., your GPC Signal has been received. For users from states not currently requiring recognition of the GPC Signal, our website servers may recognize and apply the GPC Signal for only “targeting cookies”, but will not apply the GPC Signal to functional, performance or social media cookies. Further, a specific GPC Signal acknowledgement notice will not be included in the privacy preference center, but you can always check and adjust your cookie settings by going to the “Cookies Settings/Your Privacy Choices” link or icon at the bottom of our Sites.
