What effect if any did turning on the Do Not Track option have?
Do Not Track is a web browser setting that adds a signal to your browser's header, telling other websites that you don't want their tracking cookies. By 2011, DNT had been adopted by all the major browsers, but it's not enforceable and many websites have refused to honor it.
What does this mean send a Do Not Track request with your browsing traffic?
When you browse the web on computers or Android devices, you can send a request to websites not to collect or track your browsing data. It's turned off by default. However, what happens to your data depends on how a website responds to the request.
What is the Do Not Track clause in privacy policy?
A Do Not Track disclosure is a paragraph included in a website's privacy policy that notifies users whether or not the website complies with Do Not Track requests. Under current state legislation, websites do not need to comply with a users' Do Not Track requests.
What is the main reason the Do Not Track DNT header is Not acknowledged by more companies?
DNT is not widely adopted by the industry, with companies citing the lack of legal mandates for its use, as well as unclear standards and guidelines for how websites are to interpret the header.
