Like many websites, Midwifery With Altitude uses cookies in order to provide you with a more personalised web service.
A cookie is a text-only string of information that we pass to your computer's hard disk through your web-browser so that the website can remember who you are. Cookies cannot be used by themselves to identify you.
A cookie will typically contain the name of the domain from which the cookie has come, the "lifetime" of the cookie, and a value, usually a randomly generated unique number.
For more information about cookies, please see www.allaboutcookies.org.
We use two types of cookies on our website:
- Session cookies, which are temporary cookies that remain in the cookies file of your browser until you leave the site.
- Persistent cookies, which remain in the cookies file of your browser for longer (although how long will depend on the lifetime of the specific cookie). These cookies are used to store state information between visits to a site. We use persistent cookies to provide services so that you do not have to log-in repeatedly between visits.
If you do not wish to receive cookies you can easily modify your web browser to refuse cookies, or to notify you when you receive a new cookie. However, you may not be able to use all the interactive features of our site if cookies are disabled, and so in order to enjoy the Midwifery With Altitude site to the full, we recommend that you leave them switched on.

- What about children's privacy?
The safety of children is very important to us. Our education site does not collect personally identifiable from children. We do have a graffiti board on the site but this is moderated and does not display the full name of individual children nor their addresses. Children should always ask a parent for permission before sending personal information to anyone online.Top
- What security precautions are in place to protect the loss, misuse, or alteration of my information?
When you give Midwifery With Altitude personal information that information may be stored and processed outside of the UK and we take steps to ensure that your information is treated securely.
Unfortunately, no data transmission over the Internet can be guaranteed to be 100% secure. As a result, while we strive to protect your personal information, Midwifery With Altitude cannot ensure or warrant the security of any information you transmit to us, and you do so at your own risk. Once we receive your transmission, we make our best effort to ensure its security on our systems.Top
