By using Tiny Trainset, you acknowledge that you have read and understood this Privacy Policy and agree to its terms.

Measurement cookies, which count visits so we can see which pages are worth keeping, are only set if you agree to them. When you first visit you are asked, and nothing is stored until you answer. Declining is a single click on the same footing as accepting.

Advertising cookies are a separate question, asked separately by Google's own certified notice rather than by us. Google is the advertising partner, the cookies are set by Google, and only its notice is certified to record that choice and pass it on, so we do not ask on its behalf.

You can change your mind at any time using the Cookie settings link in the footer of any page. Your measurement choice is kept in your browser's own local storage, on your device: it is never sent to us and is not used to identify you.

Cookies already set by an earlier choice can be cleared through your browser settings.
