1037+
1038+ This spec introduces no new security considerations.
1039+
1040+ Various features in this specification,
1041+ associated mainly with the ''@media'' rule
1042+ but also to some degree with the ''@supports'' rule,
1043+ provide information to Web content about
1044+ the user's hardware and software and their configuration and state.
1045+ Most of the information is provided through the features in [[MEDIAQ]]
1046+ rather than through the features in this specification.
1047+ However, the ''@supports'' rule may provide some additional details about the user's software
1048+ and whether it is running with non-default settings that may enable or disable certain features.
1049+
1050+ Most of this information can also be determined through other APIs.
1051+ However, the features in this specification are one of the ways this information
1052+ is exposed on the Web.
1053+
1054+ This information can also, in aggregate, be used to improve the accuracy of
1055+ <a href="https://www.w3.org/2001/tag/doc/unsanctioned-tracking/">fingerprinting</a> of the user.

1089- While this spec does modify the definition of the ''@media'' rule,
1090- which does have some privacy considerations,
1091- the modifications defined here do not have any effect on the privacy considerations for ''@media'' .
1092- No other feature in this spec has any privacy considerations.
