Title: Forum Rules and Privacy & Cookie Policies
Post by: Simon on October 05, 2011, 23:45

In order to comply with various EU regulations, we have implemented an additional function on the forum which displays our forum rules, a privacy policy and statement regarding cookies. These can all be accessed from the new 'Forum Policies' tab on the forum main navigation bar.

We suggest that you read through these, as the privacy and cookie policies are new, and the rules have been updated.  These policies are all subject to change. It remains to be seen if our cookie policy will fulfil the requirements being laid down by the EU that come into effect next year.

I've just checked to make sure it isn't 1 April.  It isn't.

I just haven't got a spare half a million to pay the fine if we don't comply with the upcoming EU regulations.  Regular members don't need to worry about a thing.  :)

It does have its uses - like watching clips on Youtube of the leader of UKIP, Nigel Farage, rip into and insult the Commission when there's nothing to watch on the telly.  ;D

Gosh people do like to blame things don't they. I think the EU is great and the UK and Europe are in a much stronger position together. I wish people would just embrace it and not just use it as a scapegoat by listening to politicians who have no clue or concern above their own agenda.
