In the policy below, we inform you about the use of cookies on the website of Verzekeringskantoor Van Dessel.

What are cookies, and why do we use them?

Cookies are small files that we store in your browser or on the hard drive of your computer. They serve to remember your preferences for a subsequent visit to our website, so that we can improve your visitor experience. We also use them to collect statistics about our visitors, which we subsequently use to optimise our website and to map out personal preferences.

Our system places strictly necessary cookies when you visit our website. Other cookies are placed only after you have given your consent. You can always withdraw your consent afterwards. You must then indicate in your browser settings that you refuse cookies. We cannot guarantee that you will have access to all functions of our website if you block the cookies, however.

Some cookies collect personal data, directly or indirectly. For example, when you click on "remember me" when logging in, a cookie will save your username. IP addresses, for example, are also personal data that can be collected and processed. Cookies are therefore not completely anonymous, and that is why they are subject to the privacy legislation.
