privacy policy...
We take issues of privacy and security very seriously. We believe
that internet users should be able to surf websites comfortable in
the knowledge that...
a. Their privacy is assured and their browsing habits are not being
monitored for nefarious purposes, and
b. The integrity of their computer will not be jeopardised by malicious
scripts embedded in the webpages they visit.
If you have reason to believe that any feature or element of this site is being mis-used by a third party, or that we have not adhered to our stated privacy policy, or you have any concerns whatsoever about the privacy policy of this site, you may contact us at abuse(at) this domain - tiltingatwindmills.org.uk.
Tracking
Site visits are tracked by entry/exit page, referrer, IP address, and
browser-type. This is to enable us to monitor site usage for statistical
analysis and devise and implement site improvements to enhance the
user-experience.
Data generated by such tracking is not shared with third parties.
Our interactive section (tawnews.org.uk) logs registered user activity
for purposes of site maintenance, tracking posts, and security. These
logs are not shared with third parties.
Cookies
Session cookies are used in password-protected areas of the site. These
are not related to behaviour-tracking for advertisement-placing or
any other commercial activity.
Certain offsite-hosted services offered by this site (such as our
customised Google-hosted searchbox, and our affiliate links etc) may
use cookies. We are not responsible for such third-party cookies or
any use to which they may be put; the user should refer to the relevant
third-party privacy policies in each such case.
User-submitted information
Personal information submitted to us by users (via, for example, email)
will only be used for the purpose(s) for which it has been submitted,
and is not shared with or sold to any third parties whatsoever.
Registered users of our interactive section (tawnews.org.uk) should
be aware that certain items of personal information they submit will
be visible on their individual profile page to other registered users:
this information will include username, website address (if submitted),

Mailing list
Email confirmation is required for users registering for our mailing list to prevent persons being subscribed without their knowledge. We do not share or sell our mailing list to any third parties whatsoever. We do not approve of, or practice, "spamming".
JavaScript etc
This site uses JavaScript for navigation, feeds from external sources, and to provide content that we believe enhances the user-experience.
MySpace
Be aware that visitors to our MySpace page (www.myspace.com/tawnews) should be particularly vigilant when following links on other MySpace users' pages as they may not always be as they appear. We endeavour not to link to pages on MySpace that we suspect may contain malicious scripts or other malware but we have no control over the content of other pages hosted by MySpace.
