Cookie policy

As you may already know, cookies are small text files downloaded to your computer when you visit a website. This website, like almost every other, uses cookies to give you a better online experience.

We’ve changed the way our website works so that we can keep up to date with recent developments in the law relating to cookies. This means that we need your consent to use cookies when you are browsing our site. To help you understand the types of cookies we use (or those which may be used by third parties on our site), we have categorised the cookies in relation to their functionality. These four categories are:

  1. Strictly Necessary Cookies
  2. Performance Cookies
  3. Functionality Cookies
  4. Targeting Cookies

A detailed description for each of the different cookies is set out below.

Consent

We have created a cookie tool so that you can easily choose which cookies you are happy for us to use, and the level of consent you want to give.

If you enter esarisk.com but choose not to alter the cookie settings, we will take this to mean that you are happy with the default settings (which allow all types of cookies to be used).

However, if you prefer not to allow the use of cookies altogether, you can change the configuration of your browser to either warn you when you receive a cookie, or to automatically reject them.

You may find that disabling cookies means certain areas of the site do not function correctly and we cannot guarantee access to all the services we provide through our website. Also, if you delete all of your cookies, or use a different device to access our website, you may have to choose your preferences again.
