Policy on Cookies and Digital Tracking Technologies

What are cookies and why do we use them?

The technical nature of cookies

Cookies are small text files or data fragments sent by a web server to your browser and stored on the hard drive or in the memory of your end device (computer, smartphone, or tablet). When you consult our interface, these files act as a technical memory for the platform. They allow our system to recognize your device on a subsequent visit, retaining certain information about your interactions and preferences without you having to repeat it manually.

Functional necessity

The primary purpose of using these technologies is to ensure operational stability. Cookies are essential for managing user sessions, securing login credentials, and optimizing the loading speed of graphical elements. Without these technical tools, the website would be unable to remember your preferences or identify technical errors in real-time, significantly reducing the quality of service.

Cookie categories on our website

Strictly necessary cookies

These cookies are fundamental to the website's operation and cannot be disabled in our internal systems. They manage essential functions such as secure logins, account management, and overall session integrity while navigating between different pages. As these cookies are necessary for the technical delivery of the requested service, no prior consent is required for their placement under current Dutch regulations.

Performance and analytics cookies

These tools collect anonymous statistical information about how visitors use our website. We use this to monitor which sections are most popular, where users might encounter technical obstacles, and how effectively our server architecture performs. The collected data is aggregated and used solely to improve the technical structure and usability of the interface for the Dutch market.

Functional cookies

Functional cookies allow the website to remember choices you make, such as your preferred language or regional settings. The goal is to provide a more consistent experience. While these cookies facilitate navigation, they are not strictly necessary for the site's functioning. Disabling this category may result in the loss of interface personalization.

Advertising and marketing technologies

In specific cases, we may use cookies to manage the relevance of informational messages. These cookies track which sections are technically interesting to you based on your browsing behavior within the site. They also help limit the frequency of certain notifications and evaluate the effectiveness of our communication. These cookies are only placed after your explicit consent via the cookie banner.

Manage your preferences and consent

Upon your first interaction with our platform, you will be asked to indicate your preferences. You have the right to decide which non-essential cookies you wish to allow. You can review or change your settings at any time via the privacy dashboard at the bottom of the website. Your choice will be digitally stored to respect your privacy choices in future sessions, as we strive for a balance between personalization and data minimization.

Browser settings and manual management

In addition to the tools on our website, most modern web browsers offer the ability to manage cookies directly through their own settings. Users can typically:

  • Block third-party cookies in the settings.
  • Manually delete cookie history when closing the browser.
  • Receive a warning before a website attempts to place a cookie. Please note: completely disabling cookies through the browser may reduce the technical quality of our services and limit access to advanced security features on our platform.

Cookies from external partners

We sometimes use services from trusted third parties for traffic analysis or to integrate external features. These partners may place their own cookies on your device when you interact with their content through our site. We have no direct control over the technical implementation of these external cookies and recommend that you consult the policies of these partners for more information on their specific data processing.

Updates to this policy

We reserve the right to update this Cookie Policy periodically to reflect changes in technology or legislation. Any update will be published on this page with a revised date. We advise users to read this document regularly to stay informed about how we use these technologies for your protection.
