I think that the term to be used should be “conformant”, not “compliant”. I assume you all mean conformant to W3C specifications.

A Implementation Under Test (IUT) is conformant to a standard and compliant to a regulation.

To be clear, “environments controlled by a single user” are not the only case where installation of a DNT-setting router would be compliant IMO. More generally a DNT setting in the configuration of a private network by the owning entity would be compliant.
