- If you do not want to block all the detected services at once, you can specify whether the
service should be allowed or blocked individually. You may allow running of some of the detected
systems (e.g. Web Analytics): these systems use the collected data for their own website
optimization, and this way they help to improve the common Internet environment for all users.
However, at the same time you may block the data collection activities of all processes classified as
Ad Networks. Just click the icon next to the respective service to block the data collection (the
process name will appear as crossed out), or to allow the data collection again.
8.4. AVG Do Not Track settings
The Do Not Track Options dialog offers the following configuration options:
Do Not Track is enabled - By default, the DNT service is active (switch ON). To disable the service,
move the switch to the OFF position.
In the central section of the dialog you can see a box with a list of known data collection services that
can be classified as Ad Networks. By default, Do Not Track blocks some of Ad Networks
automatically and it remains up to your decision whether the rest should be blocked as well, or left
allowed. To do so, just click the Block All button under the list. Or, you may use the Default button
to cancel all performed settings changes, and to return to the original configuration.
Notify web sites ... - In this section you can switch on/off the Notify web sites that I do not want to
be tracked option (on by default). Keep this option marked to confirm that you want Do Not Track to
inform the provider of a detected data collection service that you do not want to be tracked.
