What cookies are?
On this website we use so-called “cookies”. Cookies are small text files that are stored in the memory of your device via your browser. Cookies store certain information (e.g., your preferred language or page settings) which can be sent back to us by your browser when you visit the website again (depending on the lifetime of the cookie).

Which cookies do we use?
We distinguish between two categories of cookies:

Essential Cookies. These cookies are essential or necessary to ensure that a website works properly and is secure so that you can navigate a website and use its features. Without these cookies, certain features of a website would not function, and thus you would not be able to use certain services.

Non-Essential Cookies. These cookies are non-essential for the website to function and require your consent. When it comes to non-essential cookies the following distinctions are made:

● Functional Cookies or sometimes called Convenience Cookies. These cookies allow a website to remember the options a user has made (including user ID`s stored, consents given, or languages selected) and other personalization options you have selected when browsing.

● Analysis and Performance Cookies, which are used to monitor and improve the function and service of a website. Those can track down problems when using a website, facilitate online surveys, record visitor numbers, and provide analytics metrics.

● Advertising Cookies or Targeting Cookies. They are used to deliver customized advertising to the user. This can be very convenient, but also very irritating.

The NODP, TA and PECD, require us to ask for your consent when using specific cookies (in particular any cookie that is Non-Essential Cookies for the operation of the website.

 Further and as the NODP, the Dutch GDPR Implementation Act (Uitvoeringswet Algemene Verordening gegevensbescherming) (“UAVG”) and the EU’s General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”) also require a legal basis for the use of personal data in relation to cookies, the use of cookies would then be your consent as well as our legitimate interest.

However, we want to make true on our promise to take the protection of your Personal Data very seriously and as such do not place non-essential cookies on our website. This means we still need to have a Cookie Policy, but are not required to obtain any consents or to have one of those annoying pop up tools
