Cookies Policy
Cookies are small text files that help organise and store browsing information when people visit a website. They are not programmes, and cannot damage your computer or any files you have on it, nor can they transmit viruses. Find out more about cookies in general here.
The cookies I have on my site don't collect any personal information or anything which can identify you as an individual. They don't add you to a mailing list, nor do they enable me to contact you after your visit. They do help the site work properly, especially interactive parts of it, like the site search and menus.
I use cookies from StatCounter which tell me how many people visit the site, which pages they go onto, and whether they are first-time or returning visitors. Knowing how people use the site helps me to provide more of the content you want to see.
I also embed some links or content from other websites such as PayPal, Facebook, or Google. These are clearly identified, but if you click on them you may be presented with cookies from these other sites. I cannot control the dissemination or operation of these cookies and you should check with the websites they come from for more information about them.

If you prefer not to deal with cookies on a 'site by site' basis you can use your browser to automatically control which cookies you accept from any site you visit. http://www.aboutcookies.org will advise you if you do not know how to do this.
If you want to ask any questions about my use of cookies, please contact me.
