• Opt-Out Links: You may opt out of personalized advertising via industry-standard platforms: Your Online Choices (EU/UK) or Network Advertising Initiative (US).
• Do Not Track (DNT): We currently do not automatically respond to DNT signals due to the lack of a universal standard, but you may contact our DPO to request tracking limitations.
