Browser-Specific Instructions

Do Not Track Signals

Some browsers include a "Do Not Track" (DNT) feature that signals to websites you visit that you do not want to have your online activity tracked. Currently, there is no standard for how DNT signals should be interpreted. As a result, we do not currently respond to DNT browser signals or mechanisms.
