+          <h4>Potential Consent (P)</h4>
+          <p>
+            A tracking status value of <dfn>P</dfn> means that the origin
+            server does not know, in real-time, whether it has received prior
+            consent for tracking this user, user agent, or device, but
+            promises not to use any <code>DNT:1</code> data until such consent
+            has been determined, and further promises to de-identify within
+            forty-eight hours any <code>DNT:1</code> data received for which
+            such consent has not been received.
+          </p>
+          <p>
+            Since this status value does not itself indicate whether a
+            specific request is tracked, an origin server that sends a
+            <code>P</code> tracking status value MUST provide an
+            <code><a>edit</a></code> member in the corresponding tracking
+            status representation that links to a resource for obtaining
+            consent status.
+          </p>
+          <p>
+            The <code>P</code> tracking status value is specifically meant to
+            address audience survey systems for which determining consent at
+            the time of a request is either impractical, due to legacy systems
+            not being able to keep up with Web traffic, or potentially "gamed"
+            by first party sites if they can determine which of their users
+            have consented. It cannot be used for the sake of personalization
+            unless consent is determined at the time of a request, in which
+            case the <code><a>C</a></code> tracking status is preferred.

+            <b>[OPEN]</b> The <code><a>P</a></code> tracking status
+            value indicates a special case of general data collection which
+            is then trimmed to exclude those without out of band consent.
