Some browsers have incorporated "Do Not Track" (DNT) features that can send a signal to the websites you visit indicating you do not wish to be tracked. Because there is not yet a common understanding of how to interpret the DNT signal, our Services do not currently respond to browser DNT signals. Instead, you can use the range of other tools we provide to control data collection and use, including the cookie consent tool and browser settings as described above.
