Removal and reappearance limits

Cookie/device opt-outs are device/browser-specific and lost when cookies cleared/device IDs reset — repeat on each. DataSource is built from data supplied by other companies, so suppression decays. Merkle is a 'service provider' for client data (won't sell) but a 'business' for its own products. Does not currently accept universal opt-out mechanisms for IBA.

Where Delist fits

Review the current supported removal work and any steps that require you. Submission, a provider response and direct visibility establish different things; blocked access is inconclusive.
