9. Do Not Track Signals
Some browsers include a "Do Not Track" (DNT) feature that lets you tell websites that you do not want to have your online activities tracked. Currently, there is no standard way for websites to respond to DNT signals, as the internet industry is still working on defining what DNT means, what it includes, and how to best honor these requests.
At this time, Anthony's coal fired pizza does not respond to DNT signals. However, you can manage your cookie preferences through our cookie consent tool and your browser settings as described above.
