Any suggestions? On the Google Nexus S, it reads like this:

Portrait mode:
"Website mitteilen, dass ic.."
If you try to create something shorter, I guess at least "Nicht verfolgen" has to be in the string, the only one I can think of is "Mich nicht verfolgen" which has a different meaning (that the website will follow the Do-Not-Track rule)

Landscape mode:
"Website mitteilen, dass ich nicht verfolgt werden .."
"Website soll mich nicht verfolgen" would work here.

Issue is gone in Firefox Mobile Aurora 29.0a2 because it has been replaced with a header and a wrapping the label.
