7. Do Not Track

Some browsers include a "Do Not Track" (DNT) feature that signals to websites that you do not want your online activity tracked. Our website does not currently respond to DNT signals, as there is no industry-wide standard for how to interpret them. We will update this policy if a standard is established.
