This page explains how this website uses cookies and about the information we gather.

WHAT ARE COOKIES?

Cookies are small pieces of text information that a website or advertiser asks your web browser to store on your own computer. Nearly all sites store cookies in this way.

If you leave a comment under an article, the details that you entered into the form for nickname, email and website will be stored in a cookie on your own computer. This saves you from having to enter the data again in future.

We also use cookies to improve your experience as you browse the website.

By asking your browser to store a cookie that records where on the web you found g7uk.com, or which sections of the site you have already viewed, we can show you content that is fresh and more relevant.

In the past we have used a cookie to reduce the number of ads that are shown to returning visitors.

Cookies can't carry viruses or install malware.

THIRD PARTY ADVERTISEMENTS

Ads on this website are provided by Google and you can find their privacy policy on their own site.

SERVER LOGS

Nearly all websites store data about visitors in server logs.

This data includes an IP address — a unique number that is linked with an internet connection. Other details may include: the website a visitor came from (eg. Google), the pages they viewed, how long they spent on the site, which country they're in and the size of their screen.

This helps us to improve the content on our site. For example, if we see that a sizeable percentage view the site on a small mobile phone screen, we may decide to introduce pages that work better for them.

You are not personally identifiable to us purely from the data that is stored in the server logs.

PRIVACY OF THE ABOVE DATA

The only people with access to this data are the webmaster of the site and the technical staff of the web hosting company.

Ordinarily, no details that might help identify a visitor would ever be shared with a third party. An exception could be if a person was involved in posting abuse, attacking the hosting server or other illegal activities.

The logs are stored in a part of the web server that is password-protected. Currently the server is located in the USA.
