7. Do Not Track and Global Privacy Control

Where required by applicable state law, we honor opt-out preference signals such as the Global Privacy Control (GPC) for opt-outs of sale/sharing of personal information. Because we do not sell personal information, GPC signals are acknowledged but have no additional effect beyond our standard cookie controls.
