This page is a translation from Dutch using an online translation service. Language errors may therefore occur, and sentences or words may be interpreted differently in English. This is therefore an informative page without any responsibility for language errors.

This website uses “cookies” (text files placed on your computer) to enable the website to function, to help analyze the website in order to improve our services, or for marketing purposes.

During a visit to our website, cookies may be placed on your computer's hard drive.

The Belgian Electronic Communications Act of June 13, 2005, contains several provisions regarding cookies and their use on websites. The Act is a transposition of the European e-Privacy Directive, which means that cookie legislation may be implemented differently in other European Member States.

De Boskompanie BV is based in Belgium and therefore follows Belgian legislation on cookies.

As a result of recent legislative changes, all websites targeting certain parts of the European Union are required to ask for your consent to use or store cookies and similar technologies on your computers or mobile devices.

Purpose and use of cookies:

  • To improve the use and functionality of its website

  • To remember technical choices (e.g., language selection, newsletter, etc.)

  • To analyze how users use our website(s) and apps and to compile statistics

  • To measure how you use our products and services so that we can improve them and your browsing experience.

  • To keep visitor statistics (including estimating the number of unique visitors)

  • To show users of our website personalized information and advertisements

  • To show you more relevant services and offers that we think may be of interest to you

  • To personalize the content of a website and thus offer a more optimal user experience.

  • To enable the functionalities of social media websites (such as Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, etc.)

  • To enable sharing a page via a social media button

Overview of cookies used

Below is a description of the cookies we place ourselves and the third-party cookies we use.

Necessary cookies

Functional cookies

Functional cookies are necessary for the website to function. Without these cookies, certain parts of the website cannot be used.

Social media share buttons

The site may include share buttons to share pages on social media platforms such as Facebook, Instagram, and LinkedIn. These buttons are pieces of code from the social media platforms themselves and use a cookie. This cookie remembers that a visitor is logged in, so they do not have to log in again on Facebook, Instagram, or LinkedIn when they want to share something.

To see what they do with the personal data they receive with this code, you can view the relevant privacy statements on their own websites:

Facebook: https://facebook.com/policies/cookies
Instagram: https://privacycenter.instagram.com/policies/cookies
Linkedin: https://linkedin.com/legal/cookie-table

These statements and links are subject to change. We do our best to keep these links up to date.

Embedded content

Content hosted on other sites and accessed on this website may be used. Examples include YouTube or Spotify. Similar to social media buttons, these codes often use cookies. What they do with cookies and personal data can be found in the privacy policy of the relevant service. We have no control over this.

Analytical cookies

Analytical cookies collect (often anonymous) data and statistics to understand how visitors use the website, so that we can improve the website and our services.

Google Analytics

Google Analytics collects (anonymized) data about visitor behavior on this website. This allows us to see how visitors navigate through the website. We use this information to make decisions about the design of our website. We also use it to optimize the functioning of the website. To ensure careful processing, we have taken the following measures:

  • We have entered into a processing agreement with Google;

  • We have masked the last octet of the IP address if you have indicated that you do not want statistical cookies to be placed;

  • We have disabled all options offered by Google to ‘share data with Google’;

  • We do not use other Google services in combination with Google Analytics cookies.

If you do not want your browsing behavior to be tracked, you can download a plugin from Google that prevents this and is available for Microsoft Internet Explorer 11, Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Apple Safari, and Opera. This setting will then apply to all websites you visit, not just this website. https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=nl

Tracking cookies

Tracking cookies are used to track visitors so that, for example, advertisements displayed can be more relevant to the individual visitor. This makes these advertisements more valuable for both the visitor and the advertiser.

Deleting cookies

You can delete cookies that have been placed via your browser settings. You can also refuse to allow new cookies to be placed here. The exact location of this function varies from browser to browser.

If, after reading this Cookie Statement, you still have questions or comments about cookies, you can always contact us at info@boskompanie.be

This cookie policy may be amended if our services or applicable legislation require it. We will inform you of any significant changes and ask for your consent if necessary.
