Effective Date: 6 October 2026
This Cookie Policy explains how Elaris Corporate Services (“Elaris”, “we”, “us”, or “our”) uses cookies and similar technologies on our website. It should be read alongside our Privacy Policy, which sets out how we handle personal data more broadly.
1. What Are Cookies
Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They allow the website to recognise your device and remember certain information about your visit — such as your preferences or whether you have visited before. Cookies do not typically contain information that personally identifies you, although personal data that we store about you may be linked to information stored in and obtained from cookies.
Similar technologies, such as pixel tags, web beacons, and local storage objects, serve comparable functions and are also covered by this policy.
2. Cookies We Use
We use only essential cookies necessary for our website to function correctly. We do not use advertising cookies, behavioural profiling cookies, or third-party tracking technologies.
2.1 Strictly Necessary Cookies
These cookies are required for the website to operate and cannot be switched off. They are typically set in response to actions you take, such as submitting an enquiry form. Without these cookies, certain services cannot be provided.
| Cookie Name | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|
wordpress_* |
WordPress authentication and session management (logged-in users only) | Session / 14 days |
wordpress_test_cookie |
Checks whether your browser accepts cookies | Session |
wp-settings-* |
Stores interface preferences for logged-in users | 1 year |
PHPSESSID |
Maintains your session across pages | Session |
2.2 Functional Cookies
These cookies enable enhanced functionality and personalisation. They may be set by us or by third-party providers whose services we use on our pages. If you disable these cookies, some or all of these services may not function correctly.
At present, we do not use functional cookies beyond those listed under strictly necessary above.
2.3 Analytics Cookies
We do not currently use analytics or performance cookies. Should we introduce website analytics in future, this policy will be updated before any such cookies are set, and appropriate consent mechanisms will be implemented.
2.4 Advertising and Targeting Cookies
We do not use advertising, targeting, or retargeting cookies of any kind. We do not share data with advertising networks or social media platforms for targeting purposes.
3. Third-Party Cookies
Our website does not load third-party advertising scripts or social media embeds that set cookies. We load fonts from Google Fonts and certain JavaScript libraries from content delivery networks; these requests may result in standard access log entries on those servers but do not set cookies on your device.
4. How to Control Cookies
You can control and manage cookies in the following ways:
4.1 Browser Settings
Most browsers allow you to view, manage, delete, and block cookies through their settings menu. Please be aware that blocking all cookies — including strictly necessary ones — may affect the functionality of our website and other websites you visit. Guidance for common browsers:
- Google Chrome: Settings → Privacy and security → Cookies and other site data
- Mozilla Firefox: Preferences → Privacy & Security → Cookies and Site Data
- Apple Safari: Preferences → Privacy → Manage Website Data
- Microsoft Edge: Settings → Privacy, search, and services → Cookies
4.2 Opt-Out Tools
As we do not use analytics or advertising cookies, there is no requirement to use opt-out tools for those categories at this time. If this changes, we will update this policy and provide appropriate mechanisms.
5. Do Not Track
Some browsers include a “Do Not Track” feature that signals to websites that you do not wish to be tracked. Our website respects privacy by design and does not engage in cross-site tracking, regardless of whether a Do Not Track signal is received.
6. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in the cookies we use or for other operational, legal, or regulatory reasons. Please revisit this page periodically to stay informed of any changes. The effective date at the top of this page indicates when it was last updated.
