Please take a close look at the cookie banner that loads on the page you linked. It says:
> This site uses cookies. Visit our cookies policy page or click the link in any footer for more information and to change your preferences.
And then there are two buttons: "Accept all cookies" and "Accept only essential cookies".
The banner is doing two things. 1) It is notifying you that the site uses cookies. 2) It is requesting your consent for non-essential cookies.
Think about this for a moment, why is it doing both things? Why doesn't it just say "Do you consent to non-essential cookies? Yes | No"? Do you think this website added an extra sentence to their banner just for fun?
If you want to use essential cookies, you don't need to ask for consent. That is true. But you do still need to inform the visitor that you are setting cookies. Just as this banner does in its first sentence.
