What are cookies?

A cookie is a simple, small file that is sent with the pages of a website and stored by the browser (Internet Explorer, Chrome, Safari, Etc.) on your computer's hard drive. These files store information that is sent back to the server the next time you visit the website. Cookies do not damage your computer in any way.

Cookies can have different functions. For example, certain cookies are essential for the operation of our website. Based on the different functions, cookies can be divided into four categories: functional cookies, analytical cookies, performance cookies and advertising cookies.

Functional cookies

These are cookies that are required for the proper functioning of the digi-steel.com website. Functional cookies remember your preferences. These include the storage of a website language marker _icl_current_language, the session cookie devicePixelRatio, CraftSessionId and vuid. Please note: that all these cookies are used to make the website function properly and to enhance user experience. Without these cookies, the website will not work or could work poorly.

Performance Cookies

These cookies keep track of whether or not user goals are achieved on the digi-steel.com website. This data is combined with data from a page you visited earlier. These cookies occur very rarely.

Analytical cookies

These are cookies that are used to improve the website by looking at visitor statistics. Think, for example, of the duration of use. Based on this information, we can evaluate whether the website meets the expectations of the visitor.

Through our website digi-steel.com, a cookie is placed by the company Google, as part of the "Analytics" service provided by Google. Google may provide this information to third parties if Google is legally required to do so, or insofar as third parties process the information on Google's behalf. We have no influence over this.

We have not authorized Google to use the Analytics information obtained for other Google services. The information collected by Google is anonymized as much as possible. The information is transferred to and stored by Google on servers in the United States. Google claims to adhere to the Privacy Shield principles, and they are certified under the Privacy Shield program of the U.S. Department of Commerce. This means that they have an adequate level of protection for the processing of any personal data.

Advertising cookies

Advertising cookies are used to show visitors relevant ads on (social) platforms and other sites. The aim is to display adverts that are individual and as relevant as possible. This way we can design our advertising and marketing as efficiently as possible and provide the best experience for users.

In addition to the different types of cookies, cookies may be placed by different parties.

In order to be transparent about who places the cookies, this has been given a name. They are called first-party, second-party and third-party cookies.

First-party
First-party cookies are cookies placed by the owner of this website.

Second-party
Second-party cookies are the same as first-party cookies, but the data is shared with a second party with whom a processing agreement has been signed.

Third-party
Third-party cookies are cookies that are placed by a company that is not directly involved with the website. For example, Facebook makes it possible for you to easily share articles.

What cookies are used?

Now that you know what cookies are, why cookies are important for your internet experience and what types of cookies exist, you can find out what cookies are used on this website. We try to be as transparent as possible about what the cookie does, why the cookie was placed and what happens with the collected data.
