Terms of Use & Privacy
By using this site you indicate that you agree to the terms and conditions of use as outlined below.
Copyright & Linking to us
We hope you enjoy reading this website. We are happy for you to copy, reproduce, and link to the information that is hosted on these pages, with no requirement to seek our permission first, as long as it is for personal, non-commercial use only and that you give due credit to CyclingTheUK.com with a prominent link to this website.
Third party links
Throughout this website are numerous links to 3rd party websites. These links are provided for your convenience only and you must acknowledge that they are not under our control. Whilst we've checked all of the links before publishing them, the nature of the internet means that their content may change over time and clicking them is entirely at your own risk - we cannot be held responsible for the content of any 3rd party website.
The provision of a link also does not imply endorsement of that website on our part.
Measuring our visitors
We measure visitors to our website using Google Analytics. This records what pages you view within our site, how you arrived at our site and some basic information about your computer. All of that information is anonymous – so we don't know who you are; just that somebody visited our site.
The information we collect from analytics helps us understand what parts of our sites are doing well, how people arrive at our site and so on. Like most websites, we use this information to make the website better.
You can learn more about Google Analytics or opt out globally here if you wish.

Facebook, Twitter and other social networks
These services provide social buttons and similar features which we use on our website – such as the "Like" and "Tweet" buttons.
To do so we embed code that they provide and we do not control ourselves. To function their buttons generally know if you’re logged in; for example Facebook use this to say “x of your friends like this”. We do not have any access to that information, nor can we control how those networks use it.
Social networks therefore could know that you’re viewing this website, if you use their services (that isn’t to say they do, but their policies may change). As our website is remarkably inoffensive we imagine this is not a concern for most users.
Cookies
Cookies are small text files that are stored by your web browser and allow websites to function. CyclingTheUK.com uses cookies only as part of Google Analytics (see above) and, ironically, to keep track when you've clicked to acknowledge the use of cookies (yes we hate those pointless cookie warning banners too!). CyclingTheUK.com does not itself place any other cookies on your browser.
Our sister website (ie, I wrote both websites!), BeCyberSafe.com, has lots of useful information on it on internet privacy, including what cookies are and how to block them.
