I don't have that problem on GR, but otherwise it's an annoyance at the start of each use of most websites.

Websites have to have your permission to use your data.
I wish I knew if it's possible to tell each site only once.

However, if you mean it's continually popping up while you're using GR, and not just once at the start of each session, try emailing:
[email protected] uk

But I don't know if that's something they would be able to help with.
They take about 3-5 working days to reply under non-Covid circumstances.

Old genealogists never die.....they just lose their census.

The reference to 01.41 am is to her original post on the General Chat board where she had a response around the time she reposted on here. LondonBelle posted a link to a thread about removing the cookies.
