In addition, your browser settings may allow you to transmit a “do not track” signal, “opt-out preference” signal, or other mechanism for exercising your choice regarding the collection of your information when you visit various websites. Our website recognizes the Global Privacy Control (GPC) signal, which enables you to opt-out of certain uses or disclosures of your information. If you notify us of your preference through GPC, we will honor your request only for the browser or device that sends the GPC signal. When you log into your account, the opt-out will extent to your account as well. If you do not have an account or are not logged into your account, your request to opt out through the GPC will not apply to any account information.] To learn more about “do not track” signals, you can visit http://www.allaboutdnt.com/. To learn more about Global Privacy Control, you can visit https://globalprivacycontrol.org/. In addition to the GPC signal, our website supports certain opt-out preference signals managed through third-party services. This opt-out is specific to the browser or device where the choice was made, disabling personalized advertising and tracking on that device. Your opt-out preferences are also communicated to integrated third-party advertising networks and partners. Please note that this opt-out signal may not affect offline sales or data processing unless specifically integrated to do so. For more information on managing your privacy preferences, please contact us directly.
