What are cookies?
A cookie is a small file of letters and numbers that is downloaded on to your computer when you visit a website. Cookies are used by many websites and can do a number of things, e.g. remembering your preferences, recording what you have put in your shopping basket, and counting the number of people looking at a website.
New EU Regulations, effective from 26th May 2011, require websites to give users an informed choice about how to handle cookies.
Collection
of data
This website does not collect or store any personal information,
except where anybody may fill in any contact form, or use in-built features such
as Comment boxes or Like and Share buttons, to communicate with the website owner.
Data supplied on any contact form is not stored in any other retrieval system
and will never be sold or passed to third parties or used for marketing purposes,

Analytical
data
This website is linked to Google
Analytics, which provides summary data about visitors. This data is presented
as statistics and no individual can be identified, nor can data be analysed to
create profiles of individuals. Google Analytics uses three cookies to track which

This data is very useful for establishing the volume of people using the site and the type of content people are most interested in. It allows us to tailor website content to best serve our clients' customers. You can, however, download a browser add-on from Google which will prevent Google Analytics from collecting data about the websites and pages you visit.
