OK so apparently I need to do this for the blog so here goes. Obviously any enquiries etc. you can leave a comment or e-mail me via davehone.co.uk. Specifically, if you want your messages / data deleted then contact me directly. There should be nothing gathered be my or any widget on WordPress that should go beyond that covered below.

Dave Hone's Archosaur Musings 
Heh, I doubt this is actually needed, but you can better get it over with :).
I’d hope so, yes. But mostly don’t want any issues arising later with having not done it. I don’t collect any data, I don’t have any extra add ons or uploads and I assume people known enough about cookies and advertising to know what is going on and it’s not me, but I’d rather not come back one day to find this shut down by wordpress becuase I didn’t jump through the hoops.
Thanks, David! I wouldn’t want any government or corporation to learn of my interest in Archosaurs. That could be catastrophic to my plans for world domination through dinosaur DNA. Sorry the regulations needed for massive data corporations are ensnaring real people with no economic conflict of interest.
