what is a cookie?
When you enter a site your computer will automatically be issued with
a cookie. Cookies are text files that identify your computer to our server.

used. Cookies themselves only record those areas of the site that have
been visited by the computer in question, and for how long. Users have
the opportunity to set their computers to accept all cookies, to notify
them when a cookie is issued, or not to receive cookies at any time. The

then be provided to that user. Even if you haven't set your computer to
reject cookies you can still browse our site anonymously. No material
requiring the explicit use of cookies is served by Skirrid Computers.

the notices on particular webpages that let you know why we are requesting
the information) and tell you if we want to pass the information on to
anyone else. In general, any information you provide to Skirrid Computers will
only be used within Skirrid Computers. It will never be supplied to anyone outside
Skirrid Computers without first obtaining your consent, unless we are obliged
by law to disclose it. We will ensure that all personal information supplied
is held securely, in accordance with the Data Protection Act 1998.
