Privacy Policy
Here’s what we do with your information:
• We use cookies to make our website more comfortable for you to use

• We use cookies to monitor website usage
• We DO NOT use cookies to identify individuals
• We DO NOT store personal information in cookies
The use of cookies is necessary for the smooth functioning of the website. We consider that they DO NOT pose a threat to your privacy or online security and we recommend that you “allow” cookies. If you “disable” cookies many features of this website wont work fully.
What happens if you OPT-OUT?
If you decide to disable cookies, we record this, so you don’t get asked the question again. You will find that most of the website works as expected although functions that rely on cookies are disabled. We use a cookie to remember your cookie preferences, which has a couple of consequences:
• If you delete all your cookies, you will have to tell us your choice again
• If you use a different device, computer profile or browser, you will have to tell us your preference again
What are cookies?
A cookie is used by a website to send ‘state information’ to a users’ browser and for the browser to return the state information to the website. The state information can be used for authentication, identification of a user session, user preferences, shopping cart contents, or anything else that can be accomplished through storing text data on the user’s computer.
Cookies cannot be programmed, cannot carry viruses, and cannot install malware on the host computer. However, they can be used to track users browsing activities which were a major privacy concern that prompted European and US lawmakers to take action.
Most websites use cookies for a variety of reasons – often convenient reasons to do with the operation of the website. However, they are also used to monitor how people are using the website (which pages are visited and how long is spent on each page). Each “visitor session” is tracked even though no effort is made to try to identify the user in person.
The new legislation now states that you must be able to opt-out from having cookies stored on their computer.
Cookies that we use on this website.
These are cookies that are set by this website directly.
Google Analytics: We use Google Analytics to collect information about visitor behaviour on our website. Google Analytics stores information about what pages you visit, how long you are on the site, how you got here and what you click on. This Analytics data is not tied to personally identifiable information. We, therefore, do not collect or store your personal information (e.g. your name or address) so this information cannot be used to identify who you are.
WordPress: Our websites runs on WordPress and cookies are used to store basic data on your interactions with WordPress.
