Default sensors setting

Set whether websites can access and use sensors such as motion and light sensors. You can completely block or allow websites to get access to sensors.

Setting the policy to 1 lets websites access and use sensors. Setting the policy to 2 denies acess to sensors.

You can override this policy for specific URL patterns by using the 'SensorsAllowedForUrls' (Allow access to sensors on specific sites) and 'SensorsBlockedForUrls' (Block access to sensors on specific sites) policies.

If you don't configure this policy, websites can access and use sensors, and users can change this setting. This is the global default for 'SensorsAllowedForUrls' and 'SensorsBlockedForUrls'.

Policy options mapping:

* AllowSensors (1) = Allow sites to access sensors

* BlockSensors (2) = Do not allow any site to access sensors

Use the preceding information when configuring this policy.
