A. A Universal Opt-Out Mechanism must allow for Consumers to automatically communicate their opt-out choice with multiple Controllers.

1. The Universal Opt-Out Mechanism may communicate a Consumer's opt-out choice by sending an opt-out signal. The signal must be in a format commonly used and recognized by Controllers. An example would be an HTTP header field or JavaScript object.

B. The Universal Opt-Out Mechanism must allow Consumers to clearly communicate one or more opt-out rights available under C.R.S. § 6-1-1306(1)(a)(IV).

1. The Universal Opt-Out Mechanism may allow for a Consumer to opt out of Processing for one or more of the Opt-Out Purposes.

C. The Universal Opt-Out Mechanism must store, Process, and transmit any Consumer Personal Data using reasonable data security measures, consistent with 4 CCR 904-3, Rule 6.09.

D. A Universal Opt-Out Mechanism must not prevent the Controller's ability to determine:

1. Whether a Consumer is a Resident of the State of Colorado; or

2. That the Universal Opt-Out Mechanism represents a legitimate request to opt out of the Processing of Personal Data.

E. A Universal Opt-Out Mechanism must not unfairly disadvantage any Controller. For example, a Universal Opt-Out Mechanism may not engage in self-dealing benefiting the creator of the Universal Opt-Out Mechanism over other Controllers.
