I'm a Star member, but I'm getting pop-ups about linking to DU partners all of a sudden.

3. Information on this

The pop up is from DU's ad provider. I asked them about this, and it turns out that if you are in California it will appear even if you are a Star Member. They said:

"Even if paying members don’t see ads, receive cookies related to ads, or get tracked for advertising purposes, CCPA compliance still requires that they be informed of their rights regarding data privacy. This applies to all users in California, regardless of membership or login status."

I've been informed that it can be completely turned off globally for the entire site, but unfortunately there's no fine-tuning that would allow it to be disabled for Star Members only. I can't turn it of globally because that would put DU in violation of Californa's privacy laws for people who are seeing ads. So unfortunately I can't get rid of it for Star Members at this time.

If you click either button on the banner it should just go away and hopefully you won't see it again.
