A note about Cookies
Like most websites, this one uses cookies. Cookies are small text files stored on your computer by your browser. They’re used for many things, such as remembering whether you’ve visited the site before, but it my case the only cookies that are used are by Google Analytics. This help me work out how many new website visitors I get each month. The cookies contain information about what sort of computer you’re using but don’t include personal information about you (they don’t store your name or email for example). Ultimately it helps me see what pages are popular, what pages you visit, and allow me to make decisions about what information to provide.
You can of course turn cookies off. The websites below provide guidance how to do this, however remember that if you turn off cookies in your browser then these settings apply to all websites not just this one:
