Depending on the services enabled on our store, these providers may use cookies, pixels, or similar technologies to collect information about interactions with our website.

This may include services offered by platforms such as Google, Meta, TikTok, or other advertising and analytics providers only where those services are actually used by TinyStride™.

Your ability to opt out or manage these technologies may depend on your location, browser settings, and the privacy controls provided on our website.

TinyStride™ may work with service providers located in countries different from your own.

As a result, personal information may be processed or stored outside your country of residence.
