A cookie is a small file which asks permission to be placed on your computer's hard drive. Once you agree, the file is added and the cookie helps analyse web traffic or lets you know when you visit a particular site. Cookies allow web applications to respond to you as an individual. The web application can tailor its operations to your needs, likes and dislikes by gathering and remembering information about your preferences.
We use cookies to remember your login details and to tailor content to you as an individual. A cookie in no way gives us access to your computer. You can choose to accept or decline cookies. Most web browsers automatically accept cookies, but you can usually modify your browser setting to decline cookies if you prefer.
You can control and manage your cookie preferences at any time through the Cookie Consent banner provided by CookieScript. The banner appears when you first visit the site and can also be accessed again by clicking the link available in the banner on any page.
Please note that if you disable or refuse cookies, some features of our website may not function as intended.
Our website may use the following types of cookies:
Strictly necessary cookies – Required for the website to function (e.g., login and session cookies).
Performance cookies – Collect information on how visitors use the website, such as pages visited and error messages.
Functionality cookies – Remember your preferences and choices to enhance your experience.
Targeting/advertising cookies – May be used to deliver relevant advertising based on your browsing activity.
Some cookies may be set by trusted third-party services we use for analytics, advertising, or embedded content (e.g., videos). These third parties may collect data about your browsing activity across our website and other sites.
Additionally, we operate a subdomain jobs.isc.co.uk that is managed by Press Burst. While this subdomain is operated separately, it shares the same CookieScript banner as our main site. This ensures that the cookie preferences you set through CookieScript apply consistently across both the main domain and the subdomain.
We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in technology, law, or our business practices. Any updates will be posted on this page with the revised date.
