Do-Not-Track Signals and Similar Mechanisms

Some web browsers transmit “do-not-track” signals to the websites and online services with which a user interacts. While there is no comprehensive industry standard for such signals, certain M23 websites attempt to recognize and honor these signals by limiting the use of cookies and similar tracking technologies. However, due to variations in browser capabilities and the absence of universally accepted standards, we cannot guarantee that transmitting a “do-not-track” signal will result in the disabling of all cookies and tracking technologies. We recommend using the cookie management tools available on our websites to control the use of such technologies.
