Use of cookies

We use cookies and allow certain third parties to place cookies on our website. We do this to provide the website and our services, to ensure that the website functions properly and efficiently, to remember your preferences and settings, to improve your personal user experience, and to gain insight into the use of the website in order to further improve our website and services. The following types of cookies are used on our website.

Functional & technical cookies: These cookies are essential for the operation of the website. These cookies are always used and cannot be declined, as they are necessary for the website to function properly.

Analytical cookies and comparable technologies: These cookies collect information about how the website is used. They are used to improve the performance and user-friendliness of the website. They also allow us to remember preferences and settings, such as language choice and login details.

Other analytical technologies used by Privacy Company

For our website analytics we use Matomo, a privacy-friendly analytics tool. This tool will collect some data from your browser. This includes your IP address, your browser version and the screen resolution settings of your computer. Please see our privacy statement for a detailed list of collected data. Collecting these details allows us to make sure that our website is displayed properly to all our visitors.

We take various measures to minimise the impact of these analytics on your privacy. We have configured both Matomo and HelpDocs in such a way that they anonymise the IP address information from your requests. We have also disabled ‘live features’ in Matomo as recommended by privacy authorities and have disabled the use of cookies by Matomo. Due to these measures, the impact of our analytics on your privacy is very limited and you do not need to give consent for them.

Marketing cookies: Marketing cookies collect information about browsing behavior, such as which pages are visited. These cookies are used to show relevant advertisements. Marketing cookies require your explicit consent due to their impact on your privacy. We do not use marketing cookies.
