Breakeryard.com uses a feature of your browser (“cookies”) to assign a unique user
ID. Cookies by themselves cannot be used to identify you – they only identify your
computer to our server when you visit the Breakeryard.com website.
When you visit certain areas of our website we will try to ease your use of Breakeryard.com,
this will be by persisting information about your membership (i.e Username, password)
to a cookie. This has been requested by many members and breakers to save them logging
in to the site every 20 mins. This cookie is set to expire within 1 day and hold
no other information than is needed to provide you with a safe hassle free experience.
What is a cookie?
When you log in as a Member or breaker your computer will automatically be issued
with a cookie. Cookies are text files that identify your computer to our server.
Cookies in themselves do not identify the individual user, just the computer used.
Many sites do this whenever a user visits their site in order to track traffic flows.
Cookies themselves only record those areas of the site that have been visited by
the computer in question, and for how long. Users have the opportunity to set their
computers to accept all cookies, to notify them when a cookie is issued, or not
to receive cookies at any time. The last of these, of course, means that certain
personalised services cannot then be provided to that user.
NB: Even if you haven't set your computer to reject cookies you can still browse
our site anonymously until such time as you log in to Breakeryard.com.
Access to your personal information
You have the right to request a copy of the personal information Breakeryard.com
holds about you and to have any inaccuracies corrected. (We charge £10 for information
requests.) Please address requests to Data Protection, Breakeryard.com, Breaker
