Using "Cookies"
"Cookies" are small pieces of information that are stored by your browser on your computer's hard drive. Our cookies do not contain any personally identifying information. Most Web browsers automatically accept cookies, but you can usually change your browser to prevent that. Even without a cookie, you can still use most of the features on our site.

Google Analytics
We are using a tool called “Google Analytics” to collect basic information about use of this site. It collects information such as how often users visit this site, what pages they visit when they do so, and what links from other sites brought you to ours. Google Analytics collects only the IP address assigned to you on the date you visit this site, not your name or any other identifying information. We do not combine the information collected through the use of Google Analytics with personally identifiable information. Although Google Analytics plants a permanent cookie on your web browser to identify you as a unique user the next time you visit this site, the cookie cannot be used by anyone but Google. Google’s ability to use and share information collected by Google Analytics about your visits to this site is restricted by the Google Analytics Terms of Use and the Google Privacy Policy. You can prevent Google Analytics from recognizing you on return visits to this site by disabling cookies on your browser, or using the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on available directly from Google.

However, you can prevent us from doing so by sending an e-mail message with the text "Do not distribute my personal information to others" to info@martastales.com.
