I have blocked our DEV and QA sites in the privacy and security so that we are not getting metrics on those sites but I am still seeing those pages linked and being reported on. Why?

Hi Julia! Thanks for responding! The chart I am showing is looking at the initial landing pages someone comes to on the site. My assumption would be that if those websites are actually blocked it should not be showing any data from those websites and I should not see information from those websites. I am asking it to block that information and not include it in any reporting. I am just wondering how/why that information is shown if the information is truly being blocked.
Hi
Also, note that the privacy settings do not retroactively block or modify data that has already been collected, it only impacts data collection going forward. For example, if you look right now at chart data from the last 7 days, you might still see improper data.
It does seem like in the last 7 days those websites have been removed from that chart. Thanks so much.
