2. What are cookies and similar technologies?
Cookies are small text files that are placed on your device (computer, tablet, or mobile phone) when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work more efficiently, to provide information to the site owner, and to improve user experience. Cookies can be "first-party" (set by us) or "third-party" (set by a different domain, e.g. an analytics provider).
Similar technologies include local storage, session storage, pixel tags, and other identifiers that can store or access information on your device. In this policy, when we refer to "cookies" we include these technologies where they are used for similar purposes.
3. Legal basis for use of cookies
Under the ePrivacy Directive (as implemented in Dutch law) and the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), we are required to inform you about the use of cookies and, where cookies are not strictly necessary, to obtain your consent before placing them.
- Strictly necessary cookies: These are essential for the operation of the Website (e.g. security, load balancing, remembering your cookie preferences). They do not require your consent under applicable law.
- Analytics and functional cookies: These help us understand how visitors use the Website and improve its performance. They are not strictly necessary and require your consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR).
- Marketing cookies: These may be used to deliver relevant advertisements or to track the effectiveness of campaigns. They require your consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR).
4. Types of cookies we use
4.1 Strictly necessary cookies
These cookies are always active and cannot be disabled. They are necessary for the Website to function and for us to remember your cookie choices.
- Cookie consent: Stores your cookie preferences (e.g. accepted, rejected, or custom settings including analytics and marketing) so we do not ask you again on every visit. Retention: as long as needed to apply your choice (e.g. 12 months).
- Security and session: Any cookies used for security, preventing abuse, or maintaining your session. Retention: session or short-term as needed.
4.2 Analytics cookies
These cookies are only placed if you give your consent via our cookie banner or cookie settings. They help us understand how many people visit the Website, which pages are viewed, and how users navigate. This allows us to improve the Website and user experience. The data is generally aggregated and may be shared with our analytics service providers under data processing agreements.
- Purpose: Statistics, performance measurement, improvement of the Website.
- Legal basis: Your consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR).
- Retention: As defined by the relevant provider or by us (typically up to 24 months), unless you withdraw consent earlier.

These cookies are only placed if you give your consent. They may be used to show you relevant advertisements, to measure the effectiveness of advertising, or to build audiences for marketing purposes. They may involve third-party providers (e.g. advertising networks).
- Purpose: Marketing, advertising, retargeting (where applicable).
- Legal basis: Your consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR).
- Retention: As defined by the relevant provider or by us, unless you withdraw consent earlier.
5. How to manage your cookie preferences
You can manage your cookie preferences in the following ways:
- Cookie banner and settings: When you first visit the Website, you will see a cookie banner. You can choose "Accept all", "Reject" (only strictly necessary cookies will be used), or "Cookie settings" to enable or disable analytics and marketing cookies individually. Your choice is stored so we can respect it on future visits.
- Browser settings: Most browsers allow you to block or delete cookies via their settings. You can usually find these under "Privacy", "Security" or "Cookies". Blocking all cookies may affect the functionality of the Website and your experience.
- Withdrawing consent: If you have previously accepted analytics or marketing cookies, you can withdraw your consent at any time by clearing cookies for this Website in your browser or by contacting us. We will then stop placing non-essential cookies on your next visit after we have updated your preference.
6. Third-party cookies
Where we use third-party services (e.g. analytics or advertising), those providers may set their own cookies. Their use is governed by their respective privacy and cookie policies. We select partners that comply with applicable data protection law and, where required, we have data processing agreements in place. We do not control the duration or exact use of third-party cookies; please refer to the providers’ policies for details.
7. Your rights
Where cookies process personal data, you have the same rights as set out in our Privacy Policy, including the right to access, rectify, erase, restrict processing, object, and to data portability where applicable. You also have the right to withdraw consent at any time and to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority (e.g. the Dutch Autoriteit Persoonsgegevens). To exercise your rights or to update your cookie preferences, contact us using the details in section 1.
8. Updates to this Cookie Policy
We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices, in the cookies we use, or in the law. The "Last updated" date at the top will be revised when changes are made. We encourage you to review this page periodically. Where changes are material, we may notify you via the Website or by other appropriate means.
