Under no circumstances can this be linked to a particular person.

4.0 Cookies

A ‘cookie’ is a small text file, which helps the server to identify your computer but not the individual. The cookies help us to make your visitor session more personal, and enriching experience. If you wish not to have this facility you are able to disable cookies using that option in your browser’s settings.

This provides amongst other things that the data we hold about you should be processed lawfully and fairly. It should be accurate, relevant and not excessive. The information should be kept up to date, where necessary, and not retained for longer than is necessary. It should be kept securely to prevent unauthorised access by other people.

If at any time our site contains subscription mailing lists there will always be the option to remove you from the aforementioned list. Normally this ‘unsubscribe’ option will appear at the bottom of most email communications.
