4    What exactly are Cookies?

When you visit our website, we may process personal data using online technologies such as trackers, cookies, scripts, and similar technologies (hereinafter referred to as ‘cookies’). cookies are small information files that a website asks your browser to store on your device when you visit a website or certain pages of that specific website.

5    Which Cookies do we use?

We distinguish between our own cookies (‘first party cookies’) and cookies processed by third parties (’third-party cookies’). Our website places cookies on its own initiative but has also third parties that can place cookies (through integrations). More specifically:

  • Proprietary cookies (“first party cookies”): these are cookies placed on our initiative. Only we have access to the information contained in the cookie.
  • Third-party cookies: cookies that are set by a third party, other than our own. With these cookies the third-party has access to the data collected in the cookie.

A further distinction can be made based on the specific purpose of the cookie (see below). For each of these categories, we will always request your prior consent, unless these cookies are essential (to provide you with a service you have explicitly requested or for the proper technical functioning of a website).
