A cookie is a small file which asks permission to be placed on your computer’s hard drive. Once you agree, the file is saved; the cookie then helps analyze web traffic or lets you know when you visit a particular website. Cookies allow web applications to be customized to you as an individual. The web application can adapt to your needs, likes and dislikes by gathering and storing information about those preferences.
We use necessary, functional cookies. These are necessary for the website to function. Without these cookies, certain features cannot be used.
We also use cookies to determine which pages are visited. This helps us analyze data about website traffic and improve our website to tailor it to the needs of our visitors. We only use this information for statistical analysis purposes. The data is then deleted from the system.
Cookies also help us to provide you with a better website by enabling us to keep track of which pages are useful to you and which are not. A cookie in no way gives us access to your computer or any information about you, other than the data you choose to provide us.
You can accept or decline cookies. Most web browsers automatically accept cookies. However, you can usually modify your browser settings to decline cookies if you prefer. This may prevent you from taking full advantage of the website.
Third party cookies
Social media share-buttons
On this site, share buttons are included under blogs and stories for sharing on social media platforms such as Facebook, Twitter, Instagram and LinkedIn. These buttons are pieces of code from the social media itself and use a cookie. This cookie remembers that a visitor is logged in, so you don’t have to log into Facebook, Twitter or LinkedIn again when you want to share something.
To see what these third parties do with personal data they receive with this code, you can read their privacy statements on their own websites:
Facebook: https://facebook.com/policies/cookies
Twitter: https://twitter.com/privacy
Linkedin: https://linkedin.com/legal/cookie-table
These statements and links may change. We do our best to keep these links up to date.
Embedded content such as video’s
Content hosted on other sites and accessed on this website may be used. Such as our YouTube or Vimeo videos. In a similar way to social buttons, these codes often use cookies. What they do with the cookies and personal data can be found in the privacy policy of the relevant service. We have no control over this.
