What are our policies to manage cookies, “Do Not Track” signals and interest-based advertising?
Cookie Policy; Controlling Our Tracking Tools.
You do not need to have cookies turned on to visit our Sites, although active participation in certain areas of our Sites may require cookies. You can set your browser to refuse or delete cookies. Please consult the corresponding instructions of the manufacturer for more detailed information on the actual procedure. If you configure your computer or device to block all cookies, you may disrupt certain features of our sites and limit the functionality we can provide when you visit or use our Sites. If you block or delete cookies, not all of the tracking that we have described in this Privacy Policy will stop.
Responding to “Do Not Track.” Some browsers have a “Do Not Track” (DNT) feature that lets you tell websites that you do not want to have your online activities tracked. These browser features are still not uniform, so we are not currently set up to respond to those signals. However, if you are a resident of a Covered State (defined below) that requires honoring certain opt-out preference signals, we will treat such opt-out preference signals as a means of opting out of the sale or sharing of personal information, or of opting out of the processing of personal information for targeted advertising, as applicable.
Controlling Online Interest-Based Ads. We sometimes work with online advertising vendors to provide you with relevant and useful ads, including ads served on or through our Sites or on other companies’ websites. These ads may be based on information collected by us or third parties on our Sites and through third party websites. For example, your postal code may be used to target an ad for people in your area. These ads may also be based on your activities on our Sites or on third party websites.
You may prevent Google’s collection of data generated by your use of the Sites (including your IP address) by downloading and installing a Browser Plugin available at https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=en.
To exercise certain opt-out choices you may have regarding Cookies from certain providers, please visit the consumer opt-out pages at the Digital Advertising Alliance and Network Advertising Initiative.
Cookie-based opt-outs are not effective on some mobile devices. Users may opt out of certain ads on mobile applications or reset advertising identifiers via their device settings.
