Romans in Britain Privacy Policy
Okay, first realize that I/we don't give a tinker's damn about your information and although we might joke about wanting to sell it, if such a thing would buy me a house or new car or something, we won't. The idea of this kind of invasion of privacy is kind of repugnant...
Wanna know why we even HAVE a "privacy policy"? Originally, it was because Google and Amazon.com MADE US do this to have their ads and the Bookstore. Again, WE do not collect your information, we do not give a damn what you do. Google however, does set a cookie... if this causes your panties to get all balled up, read what they have to say here below... and remember, again, WE DON'T COLLECT YOUR INFO. Google does a little. We all have to deal with things in life. Breathe, relax, worry about real stuff.
We also have Google Analytics — you can read about it below and set it so that it makes you anonomous... Sadly, the European Union has gotten all draconian and East German-like in this and we might have to actually block visitors from the EU. We're not quite there yet, but if we have to, we will. We also might have to make a "pay wall" for those folks in the EU who don't feel they want to to allow cookies. Please understand, it COSTS money to host the site and do the things we do. Costs. Nothing is free — please remember that. We pay for this with advertising and book sales.
