Options

DefaultGeolocationSetting enum
  • Allow sites to track the users' physical location -> 1
  • Do not allow any site to track the users' physical location -> 2
  • Ask whenever a site wants to track the users' physical location -> 3

Description

Setting the policy to 1 lets sites track the users' physical location as the default state. Setting the policy to 2 denies this tracking by default. You can set the policy to ask whenever a site wants to track the users' physical location. Leaving the policy unset means the AskGeolocation policy applies, but users can change this setting.
