Please read this post... it's important law stuff!

I've just spotted a notice on the account bit of my blog saying that I need to let you know about the cookies that Blogger and Google use on my blog.

Literally all I know about cookies on computers as opposed to the American word for biscuits is that it's a tiny text file that gets put on your computer to let the site know that you've been to the site and which pages you've seen on the site.

That's literally the extent of my knowledge though... have a word with a friendly computer expert if you want to know more!

This is what prompted this post:

"European Union laws require you to give European Union visitors information about cookies used on your blog. In many cases, these laws also require you to obtain consent.

As a courtesy, we have added a notice on your blog to explain Google's use of certain Blogger and Google cookies, including use of Google Analytics and AdSense cookies.

You are responsible for confirming that this notice actually works for your blog and that it is displayed. If you employ other cookies, for example by adding third-party features, this notice may not work for you. Learn more about this notice and your responsibilities.
