Web Site Cookies and Statistics

We ask for no personal details from users of these web pages. Our server registers the following information which is used for general statistical purpose only.

• Your server or ISP (not your computer)
• The number of pages visited
• Versions of browsers used (Netscape, Microsoft IE etc)
• The country of origin
• The referring web page (if any and if not blocked) 

We do not track individual readers or check to see when they revisit. 

Cookies are used to pass our ID to some of our affiliate links (eg hotels, shopping sites) so that pages will be displayed properly and we can be paid appropriate commissions on sales. We receive click-through figures but do not receive any personal information about the person who followed the link. 

We ask readers to allow these cookies to be set as the funding from this advertising makes it possible to provide this service free to readers and supports the free advertising for non-profit and community groups. 

We do not receive the names of people who book hotels or buy from online shops through our site. We receive names only for hostel bookings and some tour bookings but do not use, sell or share them.

Please contact the editor if you have any concerns about how we use your personal details.
