SPONSORED LINKS, AFFILIATE TRACKING &
COMMISSIONS
Our website may contain adverts, sponsored and affiliate links on some
pages. These are typically served through our advertising partners such as;
Google Adsense, eBay Partner Network, Amazon Affiliates, or are self served
through our own means. We only use trusted advertising partners who each have
high standards of user privacy and security. However, we do not control the
actual adverts seen / displayed by our advertising partners. Our ad partners
may collect data and use cookies for ad personalisation and measurement. Where
ad preferences are requested as ‘non-personalised’ cookies may still be used
for frequency capping, aggregated ad reporting and to combat fraud and abuse.
Clicking on any adverts, sponsored or affiliate links may track your
actions by using a cookie saved to your device. You can read more about cookies

website by this cookie. In most cases we earn a very small commission from the
advertiser or advertising partner, at no cost to you, whether you make a
purchase on their website or not.
We use advertising partners in these ways to help generate an income
from the website, which allows us to continue our work and provide you with the
