To make your visit to our website even easier and more personal, we use cookies (and similar techniques).

What is a cookie
We use cookies on this website. A cookie is a simple small file that is sent with pages of this website and is stored by your browser on the hard drive of your computer. The information stored in it can be sent back to our servers on a subsequent visit.

Permanent cookies
With the help of a permanent cookie, we can recognize you when you visit our website again. The website can therefore be specially set to your preferences. Even if you have given permission for the placement of cookies, we can remember this by means of a cookie. This means that you do not have to repeat your preferences every time, which saves you time and makes our website more pleasant to use.

With the help of a session cookie, we can see which parts of the website you have viewed during this visit. This allows us to adapt our service as much as possible to the surfing behaviour of our visitors. These cookies are automatically deleted as soon as you close your web browser.

Tracking cookies
How does this work? For example, a website (A) can give an advertiser permission to place a cookie. That advertiser then also knows that you have visited the website or page. The real advantage for that third party (the advertiser) arises if the user also visits another site (B) that has also given permission to the advertiser to place cookies. The advertiser can then read the cookie from site A, and in this way the advertiser knows that this user has visited both sites A and B. And he has more information about the user than website A or B have separately. Cookies that make it possible to 'follow' people are called tracking cookies.
No tracking cookies are placed on our website.

Google Analytics
A cookie from the American company Google may be placed via our website as part of the “Analytics” service. We then use this service to track and receive reports on how visitors use the website. Google may provide this information to third parties if Google is legally required to do so, or if third parties process the information on behalf of Google. We have no influence on this. We have not allowed Google to use the obtained analytics information for other Google services.

The information is transferred to and stored by Google on servers in the United States.

This means that there is an appropriate level of protection for the processing of any personal data.”
