Prior to receiving a DNT:1 header the ad network collects data 
normally and can provide proof as usual. After having received a 
DNT:1 header, the ad network can provide proof that it has received 
a DNT:1 header and cannot provide proof as usual. 

Now if you want to continue to do re-targeting and provide proof 
that you have successfully re-targeted this individual, I would 
guess that the required data collection and use goes a fair amount 
beyond what the user expects when sending you DNT:1 . Maybe you can 
also understand this DNT:1 as an opt out of the user of the 
targeting. Should permitted uses be stronger than such an opt out?
