your Web browser to enable our systems to recognize your browser and tell us how
and when pages in our website are visited and by how many people. PenguinPoop
cookies do not collect personal information, and we do not combine information
collected through cookies with other personal information to tell us who you are
or what your screen name or e-mail address is.

"help" portion of the toolbar on the majority of browsers will direct
you on how to prevent your browser from accepting new cookies, how to command
the browser to tell you when you receive a new cookie, or how to fully disable
cookies. We recommend that you leave the cookies activated because cookies allow
you to use some of PenguinPoop's coolest features.
