Cookies are small, simple text files that are placed on the hard drive of your computer when you visit a web page. These cookies can ensure that your website visit is optimized. For example, your preferences are remembered to only show you information that is of interest to you. Another advantage is that you do not have to log in or enter the same information every time you visit a particular website.
From May 2018, the new regulations from the EU came into effect: the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). Cookies may only be placed with the explicit permission of the internet user. That is why we let you know that our website uses cookies and the reason for this.
These are cookies that are necessary for the website to function. Without these cookies, certain parts cannot be used. By law, we may store cookies on your device if they are strictly necessary for the use of the site. We need your consent for all other types of cookies.
Preference cookies ensure that this site can remember information that affects the behavior and design of the website, such as your preferred language or the region where you live.
Visitor statistics can also be tracked using cookies. We use Google Analytics to gain insight into the behavior of visitors to our website. On the basis of this information, we gain insight into the surfing and visiting behavior of our visitors and we can optimize our website for you where possible. The information that Google collects is anonymised. No personal data is therefore stored, so that we can place these cookies without permission. We do not share this information with third parties.
With the help of tracking cookies we can, among other things, advertise more specifically and register which companies and organizations visit our website. In this way we can adjust offers and approach visitors with interesting proposals. These cookies are only placed if you give permission for this. We currently do not use tracking cookies.
