DON’T WORRY OUR COOKIES ARE FAT-FREE.
You have nothing to fear from our cookies but we know some people are concerned about them so we wanted to tell you a little about what they are and what ours do. To improve your experience, we use cookies to keep from showing you the same thing so many times. For instance, once you click on certain popups (such as the email signup form) the site will send your internet browser a cookie (just a little line of text and numbers) that our site will read so it will know that after a few times, we can stop showing you that notice. Some cookies expire after a certain length of time or when you close our site, so if you visit after that you’ll see the notice again.
Cookies are important to the proper functioning of a site. They are a fact of life on the internet and you often receive them without even knowing. In this sin-saturated world, there are no guarantees, but as in most of life, if you are in a habit of visiting the dark and seedy back alleys of the internet, you might run into some cookies laced with digital poison that can be toxic to your computer’s system. However, if you stick to the web’s well-lit main streets, you will probably be safe most of the time.
We wanted to let you know about cookies not only to comply with various rules throughout the planet about giving notice, (you know how it is, lawyers rule the world) but we also wanted to be upfront about how things work. We will never use cookies to collect personal information about you without your permission or to deliberately cause you problems (unlike those world ruling lawyers). Some of the software used to create this site may also use some cookies so the pages work correctly. Go to the privacy policy page to learn more. You can always delete cookies through your browser. Below is an excerpt from our Privacy Policy page that explains how to deal with unwanted cookies. Remember if you delete cookies, this and other websites might not work the same.
