1. What Are Cookies
Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. They help the website remember your preferences and understand how you interact with the site. Some cookies are essential for the website to function, while others help us improve your experience.
2. Cookies We Use
2.1 Strictly Necessary Cookies
These cookies are essential for the operation of the Service. They enable core functionality such as authentication, session management, and security. These cookies do not require your consent under the Dutch Telecommunicatiewet.
- Session cookie — maintains your authenticated session (expires on browser close).
- Authentication token — keeps you logged in securely (expires after 24 hours or on logout).
- CSRF token — protects against cross-site request forgery attacks.
- Cookie consent preference — remembers your cookie choices.
2.2 Functional Cookies
These cookies remember your preferences to provide a more personalized experience. They require your consent.
- Language preference — remembers your chosen language (EN/NL).
- Theme preference — remembers your light/dark mode setting.
- Dashboard layout — remembers your preferred dashboard configuration.
2.3 Analytics Cookies
We may use analytics cookies to understand how visitors interact with the Service so we can improve it. These cookies require your explicit consent before being placed. If we use a privacy-friendly analytics solution with minimal data collection and no cross-site tracking, we may place these without consent in accordance with Dutch DPA guidance, provided that: the data is aggregated, the analytics provider has signed a data processing agreement with us, and we have conducted a privacy impact assessment.
3. Third-Party Cookies
We minimize the use of third-party cookies. Where third-party services are used (e.g., Stripe for payment processing), these services may set their own cookies. We recommend reviewing the privacy policies of these third parties:
- Stripe — processes payments securely. See: stripe.com/privacy
4. Legal Basis
Our use of cookies complies with Article 11.7a of the Dutch Telecommunicatiewet and the GDPR. Strictly necessary cookies are placed without consent as they are essential for the Service. All other cookies require your prior opt-in consent. We do not use cookie walls — you can use the Service even if you decline non-essential cookies.
5. Managing Your Cookie Preferences
You can manage your cookie preferences at any time:
- Cookie settings: Use the cookie consent banner or the "Cookie Settings" link in our footer to update your preferences.
- Browser settings: You can configure your browser to block or delete cookies. Note that blocking essential cookies may prevent the Service from functioning properly.
- Withdrawing consent: You can withdraw your consent for non-essential cookies at any time through the cookie settings. Withdrawal does not affect the lawfulness of processing based on consent before withdrawal.
