Cookie Statement
Cookies are small files that your computer stores when you visit a website.
The website can extract information from these cookies to, for example, remember your website settings, analyze your visitor behavior, or display relevant content.
LocalStorage is a similar technique to cookies; for convenience, we use the term “cookies” for that as well.
This page lists the cookies we use on this website.
This information may change regularly, for example because our website has been modified or because the regulations concerning cookies have changed.
Of course we do our best to keep this information as up-to-date as possible, so we recommend that you check this page regularly.
Then you can always decide if you want to change the cookie settings.
We distinguish between the following types of cookies:
- Functional Cookies
- Analytical Cookies
- Marketing Cookies
Functional (necessary) Cookies
These are necessary for the website to function properly.
The functional cookies are used, for example, to remember your website preferences.
As a result, you only have to indicate your preferences once in terms of accepting or rejecting cookies.
Analytical Cookies
Analytical cookies allow us to analyze the use of the website.
This allows us to continuously improve functionalities and content of the website.
We use Google Analytics for this purpose.
To be GDPR-compliant, we do not share data with Google and have a (sub)processor agreement with Google through Contentleaders.
Marketing Cookies
Marketing cookies are used to identify visitors after interacting with the website.
By interaction we mean, for example, filling out a contact form, downloading a brochure or clicking on a link after an email you received from us.
