Cookies are small text files that are placed on your computer by the websites that you visit. They help a website distinguish you from other users.
Some cookies are Essential, as they are needed for features such as adding items to shopping baskets or to allow the website to load promptly. Some cookies aren’t Essential but are useful; for example they may provide information on how people are using the website so the website can be improved (Analytics cookies). Some cookies are used to allow a website to target advertisements, so that you only see relevant adverts (Advertising cookies) – however we do not use any Advertising cookies on this website.
EU Privacy laws require us to seek your consent if we wish to place any non-essential cookies on your computer. The table below explains the cookies used on this website [www.escode.com] and what we use them for, so you can make an informed choice on whether to consent to them.
If you have consented to Analytics cookies (using our cookies preference tool), this cookie stores a Google Analytics ID which is created when you agree to cookies.
The ID consists of the version of the cookie, what page you first visited (i.e. when the cookie was created), a random number generated by Google and a timestamp of when the cookie was created.
These cookies are used to collect statistics on how and when visitors use our website. We use this information to compile reports which help us improve the website, and to help us to measure the success of advertising and marketing campaigns.
