"Cookies" are pieces of information that a web page can store on your viewing platform if you let it. Normally web browsers allow some cookies by default and may ask your permission to store other kinds of cookies. Settings or preferences for a browser may permit you to select the browser's cookie policies or prevent any use of cookies.
Some eightolives web pages use cookies to temporarily store data to improve the user's experience.
Eightolives Progressive Web Apps, such as eightolives Trains, Schematic Mobile etc, attempt to store two types of data on your platform.
- The first type is the program or web page itself. Allowing this lets you run the program with many but not all features when you are offline - not connected to the internet. When you allow the web page to be stored in cookies, updates will automatically be made when available when you are on-line.
- The second type is data unique to you. Usually this includes certain "Preferences" you may set. In Trains, for example, this would be your "Home" location, if you wish to set it, or any schedules, stops or itineraries you have marked as "Favorites".
Progressive Web Apps may operate with reduced functionality when off-line or when cookies are disabled.
