1. About This Policy
This policy explains what cookies are, how EBA Group Limited (“we”, “us”) uses them on eba-group.co.uk, and how you can control them.
This policy should be read alongside our Privacy Policy, which explains how we handle personal data more broadly.
Last updated: April 2026.
2. What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They help the site remember your preferences and understand how you use it. Some cookies are essential for the site to work; others help us improve our service or show relevant content.
Under the Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations 2003 (PECR) and UK GDPR, we must get your consent before setting any cookies that are not strictly necessary for the site to function.
3. Cookies We Use
3.1 Strictly Necessary Cookies
These cookies are essential for the website to function. They do not collect personal data and cannot be switched off. You do not need to consent to these.

| cookie_consent | eba-group.co.uk | Records your cookie preferences | 12 months |
3.2 Analytics Cookies (Require Consent)
These cookies help us understand how visitors use the site. All data is aggregated and anonymous. We use Google Analytics 4, which processes data under Google’s data processing terms. Analytics data may be transferred to the US under Google’s approved transfer mechanisms.

We do not use Google Analytics data for advertising or share it with other Google products. If you have concerns about data transfers, you can withdraw consent at any time (see Section 5).
3.3 Marketing Cookies (Require Consent)
We may use marketing cookies to measure the effectiveness of our campaigns. These are only set if you give consent. If you later withdraw consent, these cookies will be deleted and no further tracking will occur from our site. However, third-party platforms may retain data collected before withdrawal under their own privacy policies.
We do not currently set any marketing cookies. If this changes, we will update this policy and seek fresh consent before setting them.
4. Third-Party Content
Our website may embed content from third parties (for example, videos or maps). These embedded elements may set their own cookies. We do not control these cookies and recommend reviewing the relevant third party’s cookie policy. Where possible, we use privacy-enhanced modes to limit data collection.
5. How to Control Cookies
5.1 On Our Website
When you first visit our site, a cookie banner will ask for your consent to non-essential cookies. You can accept or decline. To change your preferences later, look for the cookie settings link in our website footer, or clear your browser cookies and the banner will reappear on your next visit.
Consent lasts for 12 months, after which we will ask again.
5.2 In Your Browser

5.3 Withdrawing Consent
You can withdraw your consent to analytics or marketing cookies at any time by using the cookie settings link in our footer, or by clearing cookies in your browser. Withdrawal does not affect the lawfulness of processing carried out before you withdrew.
