    GLOBAL PRIVACY CONTROL (GPC)

    7.1 Do Not Track (DNT)

    Some browsers and devices allow you to enable a "Do Not Track" (DNT) signal, which requests that websites do not track your online activity. Currently, there is no industry-wide standard for responding to DNT signals, and Mesa Group Consulting does not currently respond to DNT signals.

    7.2 Global Privacy Control (GPC)

    The Global Privacy Control (GPC) is a browser-level signal that communicates a consumer's request to opt out of the sale or sharing of personal information, as recognized under the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) and California Privacy Rights Act (CPRA).

    Mesa Group Consulting honors GPC signals. When we detect a GPC signal from your browser:

    • We treat it as a valid opt-out request to the sale or sharing of personal information for purposes of CCPA/CPRA
    • We will not load non-essential marketing or advertising cookies that involve "sale" or "sharing" of personal information as those terms are defined under California law
    • The opt-out applies to that browser/device for the duration of the GPC signal

    To enable GPC, use a browser or extension that supports the standard, such as:

    • Mozilla Firefox (with privacy settings enabled)
    • Brave Browser
    • DuckDuckGo Privacy Browser
    • Privacy Badger (browser extension)

    For more information about GPC, visit https://globalprivacycontrol.org.

    Your Privacy Rights

    For details on your broader privacy rights, including how we collect, use, and share information beyond cookies, please review:

    California residents may also submit a "Do Not Sell or Share" request through our dedicated page or by contacting our Compliance Department directly (see Section 11).
