Why aren't the table parameters not being sent?

When I debug the code behind, I'm finding that the AJAX is not sending the appropriate query data like iDisplayLenght, iDisplayStart, iSortCol_O etc.

function CreateUserTabe() {
    $('#UserTable').dataTable({
        processing: true,
        serverSide: true,
        ajax: {
            url: "../UsersDataHandler.ashx",
            type: 'POST',
            contentType: 'application/json',
            data: function (d) { return JSON.stringify(d); }
        },
        language: {
            processing: '<i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin fa-3x fa-fw"></i><span class="sr-only">Loading...</span>'
        },
        columns: [
            { 'data': 'FirstName' },
            { 'data': 'LastName' },
            { 'data': 'Active' },
            { 'defaultContent': '<button type="button" class="btn btn-primary" onclick="ManageUser(this)">Manage</button>' }
        ],
        //ajaxSource: 'UsersDataHandler.ashx',
        rowId: 'UserId',
        select: true,
        deferRender: true
    });
}
