Privacy Policy
I should follow best practice, and post an explicit privacy policy, so here goes.
When you browse this site, the following information is recorded and made available to me:
The pages you browse on my site
The referring page or link you came from
The search engine query you used to find the blog
Your web browser version
The e-mail address you used to register
Your user name if registered
I reserve the right to use or publicise any of the above information. However, unless there is good reason, I intend to only publish information in summarised form (44% of browsers used are Firefox). The most common information published will be amusing search engine queries.
I retain this information for at least a year and will in all circumstances release it to authorities if presented with a warrant. I may hand it over without a warrant also, if I think a comment broke the law or was defamatory. I reserve all rights to do what I see fit with this information, as it is my site.
I have given information to the Police on two occasions. Once in relation to threats made by a user against an MP, and once in relation to a murder investigation.
However those who know me will testify that I only try to screw someone over, if they have done something particularly nasty aimed at me. I’ve only twice needed to retalitate in the last ten years, so it is very hard to get onto my revenge list. The bad news is that there is no known method to get off the list, once on it
So the bottom line in terms of privacy in browsing or commenting on this site, is that in 99.99% of all cases I will keep your personal information strictly confidential to me. However if you break the law, defame someone, or really piss me off, then you have been warned!
