How this Website Uses Cookies

Privacy statements

On 26th May 2012 the UK's Information Commissioner's Office (ICO) imposed an EU directive designed to protect internet users' privacy.

The law says that sites must provide "clear and comprehensive" information about the use of cookies.

In computing, cookies are small text files that help organise and store browsing information.

The Countess of Chester Hospital NHS Foundation Trust website does not store or capture personal information, but merely logs the user's IP address that is automatically recognised by the web server.

We do not use cookies for collecting user information and we will not collect any information about you except that required for system administration of our web server.

This system will record your email address and other information if volunteered to us by you. This shall be treated as proprietary and confidential.

It is assumed that by accessing this website you accept the way that we use cookies. However if you have any objections to the way this website functions in terms of its use of cookies, please contact 01244 366381 or email andrew.duggan@nhs.net to register your concerns.
