Website Terms and Conditions

This blog may include sarcastic or snide remarks as well as tirades on any number of subjects so if you’re easily offended bugger off somewhere else.

But you can’t say you weren’t warned. This blog is created solely to amuse its author and anyone else who might find this stuff entertaining.

Very little care has been taken in the preparation of any information on this site so the author makes no representation, warranty or guarantee in connection with any content or opinion herein and to the maximum extent permitted by law the author disclaims all liability in respect of such information.

In fact it’s probably fair to say the information included in this blog isn’t accurate, comprehensive, verified or complete or fit for any particular purpose which is why we accept no liability for any loss of whatsoever nature or howsoever caused, arising directly or indirectly from the use of or reliance upon anything you read here.

Nothing on this site constitutes medical advice. And if you think it does, step away from the computer and never use the internet again. If you want to win a Darwin award, go for it. It’s a free country. Live the dream. But don’t blame us if you’re a twat.

We do not monitor or edit content posted or by third parties and accordingly we do not accept any responsibility for any damage or loss any such content may cause.

There are a lot of twats on the Internet so – statistically speaking – there are bound to be some twats that post here, not least the author. We do reserve the right to ban anyone we feel like for arbitrary and capricious reasons. It’s our sandpit so it’s our rules and if you piss in teh corner we’ll send you home so don’t kvetch about it.

We will only collect personal information from you which you have voluntarily provided by leaving a comment on this website or via our social media channels, by completing an enquiry form on the website or by sending us an email. If you provide us with your contact details, we may contact you. Which is probably why you’re doing it.

If you do not want your personal data collected or used, please do not submit your data to us by any means whatosever.

You agree that we may obtain, hold and use the personal information you provide for the purposes of providing you with our services and ancillary services (the “Purposes”). The Purposes include, without limitation:

  • To respond to any enquiries you have made;

  • To gain irrevocable rights to your immortal soul;

  • To conduct surveys or promotions;

  • Contacting you if we feel like it or change our terms or if we need to give you notice of those terms;

  • To stalk you with tracking nanobots delivered via chemtrails;

  • For the purpose of sending random stuff to you (by post, telephone, fax, email or other available method) unless you indicate or subsequently notify us that you do not wish to receive such material;

  • For the prevention of fraud;

  • For any purpose required by law or regulatory authorities;

  • For our billing or accounting purposes.

Actually we use reputable hosting with servers based in the EU with proper security in place. It’s not like this is all hosted on some laptop in deepest Rumbabwe (formerly British Rumbabaland), honest.

We do not share, sell or distribute personal data to or with third parties unless:

  1. The transfer of your data to third parties is strictly necessary for the performance of the Purposes;

Cookies

A cookie is a small text file containing information that a website transfers to your computer’s hard disk. It does not contain chocolate chips, you cannot eat it and there is no special hidden jar.

When you first visit the site in a new browser window an annoying bar will pop up telling you that we (just like every other site in the bleedin’ world) uses cookies. They make the Internet work. They help make the site load faster but we can also use them for record-keeping purposes and to analyse our site traffic patterns if we can be arsed. Which we usually can’t.

If you’re super-anal you can change your settings here:
