7. Third-Party Links
Our Site may contain links to third-party websites. We are not responsible for the privacy practices or content of these external sites. We encourage you to review their privacy policies when visiting third-party sites.

10. Do Not Track (DNT) Disclosure
Our Site does not currently respond to Do Not Track (DNT) signals or similar mechanisms that may be transmitted by web browsers. DNT is a privacy preference that users can set in certain web browsers to inform websites that they do not want their online activity tracked.
Because there is no standard for how DNT signals should be interpreted or responded to, we are unable to honor DNT requests at this time. However, we may revisit this policy if an industry standard on DNT handling emerges and is accepted.
To limit tracking on our Site, you may:
Adjust your browser settings to refuse cookies or notify you when cookies are being used.
Use tools provided by your browser or third-party browser extensions to manage tracking technologies on the websites you visit.
