Task requires verifying that opt-out links are active and privacy policy excerpts remain accurate for 9 listings beginning with "A" (AAA, Ace Hardware, Adobe, Ally, Amazon.com, American Express, Ancestry.com, Apple, AT&T).

Status

No changes made. Network access to external domains is blocked, preventing verification of:

  • Link availability (404 checks)
  • Privacy policy excerpt accuracy
  • Current opt-out page locations

Blocking Issue

Cannot complete verification step required before updating "As of:" dates. Updating dates without verification would misrepresent the information as current when it may be outdated or incorrect.

Next Steps

Task requires either:

  • Network access to external websites for verification
  • Manual verification provided by maintainer
  • Alternative verification approach

<issue_title>Update data sharing "opt-out" links and excerpts based on current privacy policy</issue_title>
<issue_description>Background: This repository contains a Markdown document that makes it easy to opt-out of data sharing and other privacy options that most people would prefer to opt out of (such as data sharing with unaffiliated third parties). The Markdown document lists many Web sites, retailers, and organizations and, for each of them, contains a Markdown table with 1 or more rows.

Each row contains 3 columns:

  • "What?" column: Type(s) of data sharing or privacy preference that users might want to disable.
  • "Opt-out" column: Direct links ("deep links") to the page where an opt-out request may be made or a privacy preference may be changed. If Web-based opt-out is not available, links to the email address or phone number where an opt-out request may be made.
  • "Details" column: A link to their current privacy policy and, when it is relevant to explain the policy, a short excerpt of their data sharing practice.

This task: For each of the 9 listings that begin with the letter "A," update their entry in this Markdown document. Here is an example workflow for one listing:

  1. Visit any pages linked to in the listing. Do they still exist? If the document has an excerpt in the "Details" section, is that excerpt still present in the document?

If all linked-to pages still exist and all excerpts are still present, update the "As of:" date in the "Details" column to today's date and move on to the next listing.

  1. If one or more links is not found or seems to have been recently updated, try to find the company's current opt-out page and current privacy policy. Update the "Opt-out" and "Details" columns in the Markdown document, ensuring that the information is correct. If you are not sure, note it in the pull request.</issue_description>

<agent_instructions>If you aren't confident in a change, do not make it. Double-check that your work is correct. Double-check that any information you quote from a Web page is actually present on that Web page.</agent_instructions>
