9. Do Not Track & Global Privacy Control
Some browsers provide a “Do Not Track” (DNT) signal. Currently, there is no uniform industry standard for responding to DNT signals.
Where required under applicable U.S. state privacy laws (e.g., CPRA), we recognize and respond to valid Global Privacy Control (GPC) signals as an opt-out of the sale or sharing of personal data, where applicable.

Withdrawal of consent does not affect the lawfulness of processing carried out before such withdrawal.
11. Right to Opt-Out of Sale or Sharing (California Residents)
If you are a California resident, you have the right under the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA), as amended by the California Privacy Rights Act (CPRA), to opt out of the “sale” or “sharing” of your Personal Information, as those terms are defined under applicable law.
We do not sell Personal Information in exchange for monetary consideration.
However, depending on how certain cookies or tracking technologies are configured, some disclosures to third-party advertising or analytics providers may be considered a “sale” or “sharing” under applicable U.S. state privacy laws. Where required by law, we provide users with the ability to opt out of such processing, including through our “Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information” link and recognition of Global Privacy Control (GPC) signals.
You may exercise your opt-out rights by:
- Using the “Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information” link available here and in the footer of our Website;
- Adjusting your preferences and cookie settings through our Cookie Preferences tool available; or
- Enabling the Global Privacy Control (GPC) signal in a supported browser or device.
Where a valid Global Privacy Control (GPC) signal is detected, we will treat it as a request to opt out of the sale or sharing of Personal Information for the browser and device from which the signal is sent, in accordance with applicable law.
Please note that opt-out preferences are website-, browser-, and device-specific. You may need to update your preferences on each browser or device you use to access our Website.
For more information about how we collect, use, and disclose Personal Information, please refer to our Privacy Policy.
