You can opt-out for web browsers, mobile apps, and mobile devices. Some mobile devices may not support the use of cookies. If you clear your cookies from your browser, or use a different browser, you may need to renew your opt-out choice. These opt-out choices only stop you from receiving tailored ads from the selected source. Even after opting out, you will continue to receive generic ads and you may continue to receive tailored ads from other advertisers and services (if you have not opted out from their services explicitly). We do not link web browsers and mobile devices, however, in some cases, we may partner with a company that does cross-device linking for personalized advertising purposes (in which case you would need to perform an opt-out for each browser and mobile device you don’t want linked and/or used for these purposes).
If you want to limit or prevent location data from your device from being collected, you can adjust this capability through your mobile device settings. See instructions on how to manage your location settings for your Apple and Android devices.
