Cookies
This site makes use of cookies. Cookies are messages given to a web browser (e.g. Internet Explorer) by a web site, which are then stored on your computer. A cookie's main objective is to identify users and personalise their visit by customising web pages. Web sites can only read cookies that have been deposited by that website. They cannot read cookies left by other websites nor can they read other personal information stored on your computer.

If you do not wish to receive emails or SMS messages from My Cultural Life, then please tell us at the time of making your enquiry or contact us to let us know.
Photos
We may publish photographs we have received from members on our website. As many photographs will be group shots it is almost impossible to ask permission of everyone shown in each photograph and indeed it is difficult to keep track of who sends photos to us of themselves and of other individuals on events that they have attended. It is, however, important to share the photos with other members who have attended the events and with new enquirers who want to know a little more about My Cultural Life and what we do. We will, therefore, aim to ensure that all photos used are in good taste and unlikely to cause offence. If, however, you see a photograph you would not like to be used please contact us with details and in the case of web photos we will remove them ASAP.
Info You Can Access
When a member logs onto the online booking system, it will display details of the members' current bookings as well as allowing members to change their password. This information can be accessed at any time whilst logged in by clicking the "My Details" button.
