What does the GDPR say?
Under the GDPR (in force since 25 May 2018), we may store cookies on your device without your consent if they are strictly necessary for the functioning of the website. In addition, we may use analytical cookies provided that the data is processed anonymously. For all other types of cookies, we require your consent.
Which cookies do we use and what are they used for?
Thanks to cookies, you do not have to repeatedly enter the same information when visiting our website. Cookies also give us insight into how visitors use our website, allowing us to improve its usability and performance. Cookies can be divided into three different categories, each with its own rules.
Functional cookies
Functional cookies are necessary for the website to function properly. For example, they remember which products you have placed in a shopping cart, store your preferences, or keep you logged in so you do not have to sign in again during your next visit. We do not require your consent for functional cookies, as they do not compromise your privacy.
Analytical cookies
Analytical cookies help us understand how our website is used and how visitors interact with it. This information allows us to improve the user experience. We do not require your consent for analytical cookies, but we do inform visitors about their use. All analytical data is sent to the analytics software in an anonymised form. These providers therefore receive no personal data, only anonymous information.
Tracking cookies (not used on kinderdijk.nl)
Tracking cookies (also known as marketing cookies) are used to track visitors’ browsing behaviour. Based on this behaviour, visitors may be shown targeted advertisements or offers. Common examples include Google AdWords, Facebook Pixel and affiliate networks. The use of tracking cookies requires explicit consent. Users must be informed about their use and given the option to disable them. Kinderdijk.nl does not use tracking cookies.
