Additional Disclosures

A. Do-Not-Track Disclosure

“Do Not Track” (“DNT”) is the concept that has been promoted by regulatory authorities for the internet industry to develop and implement a mechanism for allowing internet users to control the tracking of their online activities across websites.

Currently, various web browsers (Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Internet Explorer, Microsoft Edge) offer a DNT option that sends a signal to websites visited by the browser user about the user’s DNT preference. We do not recognize or respond to browser initiated Do Not Track (DNT) signals as a DNT standard has not been adopted to this day.

Our third-party partners, such as web analytics companies and third-party ad networks, may collect information about you and your online activities over time and across our Services and our Site. These third parties may not change their tracking practices in response to DNT settings in your web browser and we do not obligate these parties to honor DNT settings.
