Access logs
Like most other web sites, we keep access logs that contain information about each request. We use this information to help us operate the site and manage its performance, for error reporting and investigation, and in aggregate for statistics about visitors and site usage.
These log files contain the IP address of the viewer that made the request to the site (usually the IP address of your computer). For detailed technical information about the format and contents of the log files, you can consult the service documentation.
The log files are created at various locations (“Edge Locations”) across the world and ultimately processed and stored at (potentially other) global locations (current list). Actual locations used vary from time to time according to operational needs.
Affiliate links
This website contains a small number of affiliate links, mainly to Amazon. You don’t pay any extra, but we get a small commission if you use the links we have provided.
We believe we have removed all the explicit trackers from the Amazon affiliates programme links, so there should be no cookies on our site. The product images are still loaded from Amazon so may set cookies for that site (but they do not do so at the time of writing in 2023-10-22).
