users to inform and services that they do not want certain information
about their webpage visits collected over time and across online
services. We are committed to providing you with meaningful choices about the
information we collect and that is why we provide the opt-out links above.
However, we do not recognize or respond to any DNT signals, as the Internet
industry works toward defining exactly what DNT means, what it means to comply
with DNT, and a common approach to responding to DNT.

information, including personal information, from you and, in some instances,
