When you visit our website, we may process personal data using online technologies such as trackers, cookies, scripts, and similar technologies (hereinafter referred to as 'cookies'). cookies are small information files that a website asks your browser to store on your device when you visit a website or certain pages of that specific website. The cookie enables the website to "remember" your actions or preferences over time and apply them on subsequent visits. Examples include your preferred language or details of the pages you have visited.
Cookies contain at least a unique identification of a visitor and some information about this user. Furthermore, it usually includes the name of the website the cookie came from, how long the cookie remains on your device (the expiry date).
We distinguish between our own cookies ('first party cookies') and cookies processed by third parties ('third-party cookies'). Our website places cookies on its own initiative but has also third parties that can place cookies (through integrations). More specifically:
A further distinction can be made based on the specific purpose of the cookie (see below). For each of these categories, we will always request your prior consent, unless these cookies are essential (to provide you with a service you have explicitly requested or for the proper technical functioning of a website).
Essential cookies are necessary to improve and ensure the proper functioning of a website such as the security and accessibility. Pursuant to applicable legislation and due to technical necessity, only an information obligation applies, and we are not obliged to request your consent for the use of such cookies. These cookies are set as soon as you visit the website.
When a page loads, our website connects to HubSpot, because our forms and our contact management run on HubSpot. At that moment HubSpot receives the address and title of the page, your screen size and your IP address, also before you have made a cookie choice. HubSpot places no tracking cookie until you accept marketing cookies.
Pages with a HubSpot form, such as our newsletter page, use Google reCAPTCHA to protect the form against spam and abuse. When such a page loads, your browser connects to Google, which receives your IP address and technical information about your browser and device, also before you have made a cookie choice. We consider this strictly necessary to keep our forms secure. More information: https://policies.google.com/privacy
These cookies ensure your optimal use of our website by remembering choices, such as your preferred language or your location. We currently do not place functional cookies on this website, so there is nothing to accept or refuse in this category.
These cookies track your use of our website and allow us to further improve your experience. They show us which pages are most and least popular and how visitors move around the website. We only place them if you accept the analytical cookies (by giving your consent). We use Google Analytics for this. We have switched off the advertising features of Google Analytics. Our Google tag is also connected to a Google Ads account. We have set advertising storage, advertising user data and ad personalisation to ‘denied’ in the tag, and no Google advertising cookies are placed.
These cookies enable marketing activities, including measuring the effect of our campaigns and showing advertisements on other platforms (‘retargeting’). We only place them if you accept the marketing cookies (by giving your consent). We use HubSpot and the LinkedIn Insight Tag for this.
Some content on our website comes from third parties, such as our podcast player and embedded videos. These third parties can place cookies themselves. These cookies are not placed by us, but by the third party. We only load this content after you have given your consent for marketing cookies, or after you click to load it. Each of these third parties has its own privacy and cookie policy, which we refer you to:
