Besides, there are a number of ways you can opt-out of certain interest-based advertising and other online tracking activities, which we have summarized below.

• Blocking Cookies in your web browser. Most web browsers let you remove or reject Cookies, including Cookies used for interest-based advertising. Many web browsers accept Cookies by default until you change your settings. Please note that changing your cookie preferences in or for one web browser does not change your cookie preferences for all web browsers.
• Blocking advertising identifier use in your device settings. Your device may offer settings that enable you to make choices about the collection, use, or transfer of an advertising identifier associated with your device for interest-based advertising purposes.
• Using privacy plug-ins or browsers. You can block our Services from setting Cookies used for interest-based advertising by using a browser with privacy features or installing browser plugins and configuring them to block Cookies/trackers. 
• Platform opt out. Some third-party ad networks, including third-party advertisement agencies, advertisement technology vendors, and research firms, allow you to opt-out directly by using their opt-out tools. Some of these providers, and links to their opt-out tools, are:
  • Google (AdWords): adsettings.google.com;
  • Microsoft (Bing): about.ads.microsoft.com/en-us/resources/policies/personalized-ads; and

Some of these opt-out features are Cookie-based, meaning that when you use these opt-out features, an “opt-out” Cookie will be placed on your device indicating that you do not want to receive interest-based advertising from certain companies.
