What we collect

When you go to a website, the pages you see, along with a short text file called a 'cookie', are downloaded to your computer. This is done on a repeat visit by checking to see, and finding, the cookie left there from the last visit. This data, known as anonymous aggregated data is information that relates simply to you as a generic person and not an individual and is used for statistical purposes.

What we do with the information we gather

We require this information to understand your needs and provide you with a better service, and in particular for the following reasons:

General

Internal record keeping, information to improve our products and services and we may periodically display promotional material about new books, special features on authors or other information which we think you may find interesting when you visit our site.  Information supplied by cookies helps us to provide all users of our websites with a better experience. It also assists us to analyse the profile and frequency of our visitors.

Feedback

In a future release of this website we are planning to create a book review feedback mechanism. When you contribute a review on our website, or give us feedback on a title, you are thereby granting us non-exclusive, royalty-free, unrestricted worldwide licence to use any content you submit free of charge. Cillian Press reserves the right to edit or delete any submissions if they express unlawful opinions or if we deem them to be offensive.

More on cookies?

A cookie is a small file which asks permission to be placed on your computer's hard drive. Once you agree, the file is added and the cookie helps analyse web traffic or lets you know when you visit a particular site. Cookies allow web applications to respond to you as an individual. The web application can tailor its operations to your needs, likes and dislikes by gathering and remembering information about your preferences.

We use traffic log cookies to identify which pages are being used. This helps us analyse data about web page traffic and improve our website in order to tailor it to customer needs. We only use this information for statistical analysis purposes and then the data is removed from the system.

Overall, cookies help us provide you with a better website, by enabling us to monitor which pages you find useful and which you do not. A cookie in no way gives us access to your computer or any information about you, other than the data you choose to share with us.

You can choose to accept or decline cookies. Most web browsers automatically accept cookies, but you can usually modify your browser setting to decline cookies if you prefer. This may prevent you from taking full advantage of the website.
