Functional cookies

We always place functional cookies and they are necessary for the website to work properly. These cookies have little impact on your privacy and are used anonymously.

Marketing cookies

Only when you agree to set cookies, we also set a number of other non-functional cookies. These all have different purposes and allow us to improve our services. For example, we use cookies to test for improvements on our website, display social media buttons or to display relevant ads for our services on other websites.

Statistics cookies

Statistics cookies allow us to measure website traffic: for example, how often our site is visited and what information visitors search for. This allows us to know which parts of the site are popular and how we can improve our website. The statistics we collect cannot be traced back to individuals. This data is made anonymous after collection. Google Analytics allows us to better understand the data. We always place the analytical cookies when visiting our website.
