What is a cookie?

We make use of cookies on this website. A cookie is a simple small file that is sent along with pages from this website and/or Flash applications and is stored by your browser on your computer’s hard drive. The information stored therein can be sent back to our servers on a subsequent visit. These cookies do not damage your computer.

  • First party cookies are cookies set by the website you’re visiting. Only that website can read them. In addition, a website might potentially use external services, which also set their own cookies, known as third-party cookies.
  • Persistent cookies are cookies saved on your computer and that are not deleted automatically when you quit your browser, unlike a session cookie, which is deleted when you quit your browser.

Every time you visit our Website, you will be prompted to accept or refuse cookies.

The purpose is to enable the site to remember your preferences (such as user name, language, etc.) for a certain period of time.

That way, you don’t have to re-enter them when browsing around the site during the same visit.

Cookies can also be used to establish anonymised statistics about the browsing experience on our sites.

  1. First Party Cookies

1.1 Google Analytics (analytical cookies)

Through our Website, a cookie is placed from the company Google, as part of the “Analytics” service. We use this service to keep track of and to get reports on how visitors use the website. Google may provide this information to third parties if Google is legally obliged to do so, or insofar as third parties process the information on behalf of Google. We have no influence on this.

The information that Google collects is anonymized as much as possible. Your IP address is emphatically not given. The information is transferred to and stored by Google on servers in the United States. Google claims to adhere to the Safe Harbor principles and is affiliated with the Safe Harbor program of the US Department of Commerce. This means that there is an appropriate level of protection for the processing of any personal data.

  • Functional and technical cookies (necessary cookies)

Technical cookies are cookies that are necessary for the evanwijk.ro website to function, to create an account, to be able to log in and to detect fraud with your account. Functional cookies remember your preferences. At E van Wijk, this concerns, among other things, personal data entered on the personal profile page and remain logged in during a session.

1.2.1 Use of session cookies

Many of the cookies E van Wijk uses are session cookies. Using a session, we store status data and preferences during a particular session. We can therefore adapt our service as much as possible to the surfing behavior of our visitors and increase the ease of use of the website during the session. These cookies are automatically deleted when you close your web browser.

Please note: we use all these cookies for proper functionality of the website and guarantee increased ease of use.

1.2.2 Use of permanent cookies

With the help of a permanent cookie we recognize you when you visit our website again. The website can therefore be specially set to your preferences. Even if you have given permission for the placement of cookies, we can remember this by means of a cookie (for example a cookie tool). This means that you do not have to repeat your preferences every time, which saves you time and allows you to use our website more pleasantly. You can delete permanent cookies via the settings of your browser.

         1.2.3 Other: cookie control cookies

These cookies are placed to remember your preferences regarding cookies. These are of course necessary to know whether or not you consent to the storage of the following cookies on your equipment:

  • Google Analytics (statistics)
  • Cookies from advertising programs
  • Social Media cookies

 

  1. Third Party Cookies

Some of our pages display content from external providers, e.g. YouTube, Facebook and Twitter.

To view this third-party content, you first have to accept their specific terms and conditions. This includes their cookie policies, which we have no control over.

But if you do not view this content, no third-party cookies are installed on your device.

 

2.1 Tracking cookies to better tailor advertisements to your preferences

With your permission, other parties place “tracking cookies” on your equipment to better tailor advertisements to your preferences. They use these cookies to keep track of which pages you visit outside their network, in order to build a profile of your online surfing behaviour. This profile is partly built on the basis of comparable information that they receive from your visit to other websites in their network. This profile is not linked to your name, address, e-mail address and the like, as known to us, but only serves to match advertisements to your profile so that they are as relevant to you as possible.

2.2 Social Media

Buttons are included on our website to promote (“like”) or share (“tweet”) web pages on social networks such as Facebook and Twitter. These buttons work by means of pieces of code that come from Facebook or Twitter itself. Cookies are placed through this code. We have no influence on that. Read the privacy statement of Facebook or Twitter (which can change regularly) to read what they do with your (personal) data that they process via these cookies.

The information they collect is anonymized as much as possible. The information is transferred to and stored by Twitter, Facebook, Google+ and LinkedIn on servers in the United States. LinkedIn, Twitter, Facebook and Google+ adhere to the Safe Harbor principles and are affiliated with the Safe Harbor program of the US Department of Commerce. This means that there is an appropriate level of protection for the processing of any personal data.
