Do Not Track Features Some web browsers and devices offer a "Do Not Track" (DNT) feature that allows users to signal a preference to not have their online activities tracked.


At this time, Sophisticated Soiree does not respond to DNT signals because there is no consistent industry standard for how DNT requests should be handled.

However, you can still manage your privacy preferences by:

  • Adjusting Browser Settings: You can disable or limit cookies and tracking technologies through your browser’s privacy settings.
  • Using Opt-Out Mechanisms: You can opt out of personalized advertising through available      tools, such as the Google Ads opt-out or other cookie preference controls provided by our platform.

We are committed to protecting your privacy and will monitor developments around DNT technology. If a standardized protocol emerges, we will revisit this approach and update our practices accordingly.

You can manage cookie preferences through your browser settings. See our full Cookie Policy for more details.
