Some third-party advertising and analytics providers offer their own opt-out tools. You may also be able to limit ad tracking through your browser, device settings, or industry opt-out tools.

Opting out of targeted advertising does not necessarily mean you will stop seeing ads. It may mean the ads are less personalized.

8. Do Not Track and Preference Signals

Some browsers allow you to send “Do Not Track” signals.

Because there is no consistent industry standard for responding to these signals, our website may not respond to all “Do Not Track” signals.

Where required by applicable law, we may recognize certain legally required opt-out preference signals.

9. Cookies and Personal Information

Cookies and similar technologies may collect information that is considered personal information under some privacy laws, such as IP address, device identifiers, online activity, or approximate location.

When we update it, we will revise the “Last Updated” date above. If changes are material, we may provide additional notice through our website, email, platform notice, or another appropriate method.
