Below, you will find the legal “small print” with which I am required to supply you, first of all in accordance with Swedish law (my pages are on Swedish servers), and secondly because Google requires me to do it in order to use their Analytics service.
Apart from the Google Analytics cookie, some of the plugins I use (this site is built on WordPress) will put cookies on your computer as well. In particular, WP-SpamFree, a plugin for stopping comment spam (of which I have had a lot in the past) uses cookies to weed out comments posted by automatic so-called ‘bots’, so if you have cookies switched-off in your browser, commenting might not work as expected. Unless you plan to post comments, however, my site works fine with cookies disabled.
