Priston Parish Council has adopted the Priston Organisations Privacy Policy.
A cookie is a small file of letters and numbers that is downloaded on to your computer when you visit a website. Cookies are used by many websites and can do a number of things eg remembering your preferences, recording what you have put in your shopping basket, and counting the number of people looking at a website.
We use a tool called Google Analytics to collect information on how visitors to the Priston Web use the website. In order to do this Google Analytics uses cookies to store information on your computer. The information we collect includes whether you have previously visited the Priston Web, the timing and numbers of visits made, pages visited, referring websites, information on the computer being used eg. operating system and screen size, and other similar items.
All the information collected is anonymous and aggregated. The information on web usage is purely restricted to your use of the Priston Web. It is collected in order to improve the website and make it more useful to visitors.
By continuing to use the Priston Web you are considered to have given implied consent to the Priston Web's use of cookies for the purposes explained above.
If you wish to disable cookies in your browser software, you can find further information on the Information Commisioner's Office website, but do bear in mind that disabling cookies will impair your experience of some websites. Alternatively, you can download and install the Google Analytics Opt-Out Browser Add-on. The Add-on communicates with the websites running Google Analytics to indicate that information about the website visit should not be sent to Google Analytics. The Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on is available for Internet Explorer 11, Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Apple Safari and Opera. This should not affect the functionality of websites you visit but it will mean that anonymous usage information is not made available to website managers to enable them to improve their websites.
