Analytical cookies
Analytical cookies define how our visitors use the Website. This information can be used for analysing the Website and generating reports and statistics.

The above-mentioned cookies may be permanent or may be valid for a single session.

Permanent cookies
Using a permanent cookie lets us recognise you when you visit the Website again. This makes it possible to set up the Website to suit your preferences so that you don't have to keep setting your preferences again, saving time and making using the Website more pleasant.

Session cookies
A session cookie lets us see which parts of the Website you have viewed during this visit. This lets us adjust our services as much as possible to suit the browsing behaviour of our visitors. These cookies are deleted automatically as soon as you close the web browser.

In addition, the Website uses Google Analytics.

Google Analytics
Cookies are stored via the Website by the American company Google, as part of their Analytics service. We use this service to keep track of how visitors use the website and to generate reports about that usage. Google will only provide that information to third parties if legally required to do so, or insofar as third parties process that information on behalf of Google. We have no control over this.

We have not given Google permission to use the Analytics information obtained for other Google services. The information gathered by Google will be made anonymous as far as possible. Your IP address will be passed through but masked by removing the last three digits. To make sure that Google exercises appropriate care with your personal data, we have signed a processing agreement with Google. Google passes the information through to servers in the United States on which it is also stored.
