## Description

The YourOnlineChoices Plugin is a Chrome extension designed to help users safeguard their preferences for online behavioral advertising (OBA) from companies participating in the European OBA Self-Regulatory Programme. This plugin prevents accidental deletion of cookies that store your advertising choices, ensuring your preferences are maintained while browsing.

As more companies join the European OBA program, they are automatically added to the plugin without requiring action from users. While the extension helps maintain your OBA choices, it doesn't block ads or data collection from non-participating entities. Note that preferences set with this plugin apply to the Chrome browser and should be set separately on other browsers or devices. Stay in control of your ad choices with this easy-to-use extension.
