We are committed to protecting and safeguarding your privacy.  We will only use the information that we collect about you lawfully (in accordance with the Data Protection Act 2018 and the General Data Protection Regulations (GDPR)).  This policy sets out how we will treat your personal information.

How we use cookies

Cookies are small files stored on your computer.  This is a WordPress website.  WordPress doesn’t use first party cookies (this website doesn’t directly use cookies).  However, cookies are used to verify who you are if you register to the website and are logging in.  Such cookies also exist for commenters so they don’t have to re-type their details.  The actual cookies contain hashed data, so you don’t have to worry about someone gleaning your username and password by reading the cookie data.

The banner at the bottom of the website gives you options regarding permission for cookies to be placed on your computer’s hard drive.  For the website to function, the WordPress cookies (if applicable) and cookies detailed from the “Cookie Settings” button will be stored to help us comply with GDPR.  We do not currently customise the website content apart from this.  We do not currently analyse web traffic or customise web applications to respond to you as an individual.  Therefore no cookies are stored relating to the aforementioned functionality.

However, third party cookies may be used by the providers of the video content seen on our Posts page and/or third party cookies may be used by the end content of links from this website.  We accept no responsibility for you accepting these cookies as we cannot control them.

You can choose to accept or decline cookies from this website’s cookie banner or within your web browser.  Most web browsers automatically accept cookies but you can usually modify your browser setting to decline cookies if you prefer.  This may prevent you from taking full advantage of the website.

Links to other websites

This website contains links to other websites of interest.  However, once you have used these links to leave our site, or to play a video from a website page or Blog Post (we do not host video content ourselves), you should note that we do not have any control over that other website.  Therefore, we cannot be responsible for the protection and privacy of any information which you provide whilst visiting such sites and such sites are not governed by this privacy statement.  You should exercise caution and look at the privacy statement applicable to the website in question.  Also bear in mind security and virus protection when clicking on any link on any website – links provided in good faith can be hacked at their end point, completely separately from the website showing those links.
