Cookies
The website can automatically place so-called ‘cookies’ on the hard drive of your computer. Cookies are small files with text strings that are sent to your computer when you visit a website.

This allows it to remember user preferences and other information (e.g. your language choice for the website). However, they do not store any personal information, except in some cases the IP address of the user of the website.
The use of cookies allows our website to function better and makes it possible to better tailor it to your needs and preferences.
