Global Privacy Control (GPC) Support Statement

We recognize and honor Global Privacy Control (GPC) signals.

The Global Privacy Control is a browser-based mechanism that allows users to communicate their privacy preferences automatically.

When we detect a valid GPC signal, we treat that signal as:

A request to opt out of the sale or sharing of personal information
A request to disable optional cookies and similar tracking technologies where required by law

This signal applies only to the browser or device from which it is transmitted.

Users may also exercise their privacy rights using the methods described in Highlight’s Privacy Policy.
