This provision discloses the company's non-compliance with browser-level Do Not Track signals in the context of a platform that collects health, financial, and behavioral data. Several US state privacy laws, including California's, require disclosure of Do Not Track response practices, which this provision satisfies as a disclosure obligation. The Global Privacy Control signal, which some states require platforms to honor as an opt-out of sale or sharing mechanism, is not addressed in this provision.
Interpretive note: The applicability of Global Privacy Control signal response requirements to UnitedHealthcare's Online Services under CPRA depends on whether the company meets CPRA coverage thresholds, which is not established by the document.
This clause discloses that UnitedHealthcare does not respond to browser Do Not Track signals, meaning browser-level privacy settings using this mechanism will not affect data collection on the Online Services. Users seeking to limit behavioral tracking may use the opt-out mechanisms described in the Policy, including adjusting browser cookie settings or using the advertising network opt-out links provided.
