You are strongly encouraged to review such policies or notices.

If you enable a browser-based opt-out preference signal that complies with Oregon law, such as the Global Privacy Control (GPC), upon receipt or detection, we will by January 1, 2026 or before, treat the signal as a valid request to opt out of the sharing of personal data linked to that browser and any consumer profile we have associated with that browser.
