Performance Cookies (optional)

These cookies count visits and analyze traffic sources so we can measure and improve the performance of our site, i.e. to enhance your experience on our website and webshop. They help us to identify the most and least popular pages and understand how visitors move around the site. To improve the website and webshop we use cookies from analytics services, for example Google Analytics. The cookies from all such services use a random ID for your device to distinguish you as a visitor, that way we can recognise patterns in your usage.

The analytics services we use collect information about your encrypted IP address, your location and other information on how you use the website and webshop, e.g. what you click on. The information collected is used to optimize functioning and loading speed as well as to modify the website and webshop to become better adapted to our users. This information is aggregated in an effort to prevent us or our partners from identifying you.

You can avoid cookies from Google Analytics by downloading and installing this browser program.

If you do not allow these cookies or block them, we will not know how you as a visitor use our website and webshop and we will not be able to monitor its performance.

Targeting Cookies (optional)

These cookies are placed on our site by our advertising partners to build a profile of your interests. This enables them to show you relevant adverts on other websites and to follow up on such marketing.

This means you will see personalised search results and advertising banners from us based on analysis of how you used the website and other information that our service providers have about you (so-called "profiling"). This information allows us to adapt the website to better suit our users. These cookies do not technically store personal data directly but are based on uniquely identifying your browser and internet device.

On the Meta Account center, under the heading “Ad settings” you can choose which marketing you want to see on Facebook and Instagram. Here you can choose which marketing you want to see on Google.

If you do not allow these cookies, you will experience less targeted advertising.
