Stevie C's Disclaimer

Stevie C's Cookies & Privacy Policy

Cookies are yummy, there's no denying that.
However, due to me being all independent, I have ditched the external counter & programmed my own in ASP.
As such, my counter uses a cookie to tell whether you've been to my site before. That is the only thing stored in the cookie (NO personally identifiable stuff for instance). The counter is written & hosted by me - no third parties are involved.
On a related note, you'll be able to see your IP address in the bottom of my menu bar - this is purely because it looks cool and is not harvesting your IP address. If you're a geek, you'll understand. If not, it's just another number.

A note from Stevie C:

Although a lot of people are spoken about on the site - particularly on the writing page, it should be noted that any similarities, without fictitious/humorous/satirical intent, to copyrighted characters/material or individuals living or dead, are purely co-incidental. No connection should be inferred.

I really hate: adware, spyware, malware, viruses, trojan horses, spam (both electronic and meat), junk email, prank email, malicious code... I could go on forever. Suffice it to say that I hate evil computer code. I only like nice computer code. Only code you would want to hug & stuff.
All content on this site is thoroughly scanned for viruses etc before being uploaded to the web. None of my own software intentionally contains any of said junk.

If you are silly enough to go to the web addresses displayed on the virus awareness page, then I can't be held responsible for your actions or for anything that occurs as a direct or indirect result of anything linked to on that page.

It should be noted that some of the sites from the links page may be ad-supported - so graphic adverts, banners and pop-ups may be present.

Another note from Stevie C:

I cannot be held responsible for any loss or damage (to property, hardware, software, etc) incurring from viewing and/or using any material on this site. The site is suitable for most audiences, although there are some big words I got from a dictionary which even I don't understand. A warning will be given about any content that is thought to be unsuitable for younger audiences.

Everything on the site is my own work (or otherwise i have permission to use the material). You may not re-distribute material from this site in any way, means or form without explicit permission from myself unless you clearly state this website as the original source and myself as the original author. The material on this site must not be used for commercial purposes.
The audio page's content may be shared as long as the work is credited to me and/or this website and the original copyright is left intact.
Personal use of my audio is free-of-charge, for commercial use, please contact me.

A note to parents:

I do not want to receive angry letters and/or e-mails from you - although I will probably delete them right away if I do. There are various warnings placed around the site for maturer content. This type of content can only be visited if you agree that you are of age to access it. All parents should (but often don't) check the sites being visited in their home; if you think that this website is unsuitable for your child(ren), then I suggest that you slump them in front of the TV with a big bag of junk food. Watching pro-wrestling, gang-land shootouts and pointless mind-numbing-spirit-crushing game shows (where plebs will do anything to get their hands on the 5K jackpot and their mugs on telly) while eating their way to a slow death will be much better for them.

A note to teachers:

If your students are accessing this website from a school computer (aka a really slow one) when they are supposed to be working on school stuff, then you must be a pretty pathetic and/or useless teacher. Its up to you to stop them, not me.

Microsoft Visual Basic Projects:

The compiled exe's are provided "as is" and are used entirely at the user’s own risk. Currently They only run on Microsoft Windows XP and similar. It is likely they run on Windows 98 upwards. I couldn't care less if they run under Vista or not.
While the code and programs do not deliberately contain any malicious code or viruses etc, I can't say that they are 100% free from the afore mentioned (or similar) crap. To ensure the highest level of protection, I use a spyware scanner and an antivirus application on the files before uploading them. Even though the files are simple visual basic files, If you have any worries that they are infected, I encourage you to use a your own virus scanner on them.
As of 2009, I will be ceasing development of VB projects as I no longer use Windows.

Harry Potter Fanfiction Disclaimer & Use of Potterverse Data:

Fanfiction & application software written by Stevie C. Based on/around characters created by JK Rowling & Warner Brothers. No copyright infringement is intended. Fan-work is for creative purposes only.
