What it requires

Under the frictionless processing path, a business is prohibited from displaying any notification, pop-up, text, graphic, animation, sound, video, or interstitial content in response to an opt-out preference signal. Two exceptions apply: the business may show opt-out status (e.g., "you are opted out"), and may provide a link to a privacy settings page through which the consumer can consent to the business ignoring the signal.
