What are cookies?
A cookie is a small text and number file that is stored in your browser or on the hard drive of your computer. That way we can remember your preferences when using our Website.
Hereby, use is made of so-called functional cookies, which makes the use of the website better for you as a visitor.
In addition, there are non-functional cookies for collecting the statistics of our visitors in order to improve our website in the future.
Another distinction is made between permanent and temporary cookies on the one hand and between direct and indirect cookies on the other.
Cookies are permanent when they remain on the user’s computer, even after the user has closed the browser; temporary cookies disappear as soon as the user has closed the browser.
Direct cookies are sent by the website itself; indirect cookies then come from third parties.
