This cookie policy describes which cookies Demcon uses on its website and what these cookies are used for.

What are cookies?
A cookie is a small document that is sent along with a website. This document is saved on your computer’s hard drive. The information on these cookies ensures, for example, that a website works properly, but also that you and the preferences you have indicated are recognized on your next visit to our website. In addition, cookies can return information on a subsequent visit. Cookies are not harmful to your computer, mobile phone or other hardware and/or software.

What types of cookies are there?
Cookies can be divided into the following types: functional cookies, analytical cookies and tracking cookies. Functional cookies are necessary for the Demcon website to work well or better. Analytical cookies are used to analyze your visit to the Demcon website, with the aim of making the Demcon website more user-friendly or to solve technical problems. Tracking cookies follow you on different websites that you visit and make it possible to draw up a specific profile for every visitor to a website that matches the preferences of this specific visitor.

Which cookies does Demcon use?
Demcon uses functional, analytical and tracking cookies on its websites. Below it is explained how Demcon uses these cookies.

Functional cookies
Demcon’s placing of functional cookies is necessary for the website to function. Functional cookies are present immediately upon opening the website and will remain so even if you do not give permission as a user to place cookies.

Analytical cookies
Demcon’s placing of analytical cookies is desirable because these cookies ensure that the Demcon website functions well. Analytical cookies collect, among other things, information about the number of visitors to the website and their geographical data, the duration of the visit to the website, the pages viewed, the operating system and device with which our website is consulted, or the Demcon website is first accessed, how a visitor ended up on the Demcon website, which search terms were consulted on the website and which version of the website was offered.

Insofar as the analytical cookies have only minor consequences for your privacy, they will be present immediately upon opening the website. In all other cases, the analytical cookies will only be present on the website after you have given permission for this.

Demcon’s tracking cookies
With your permission, Demcon places so-called tracking cookies on your device after you visit the Demcon website. These tracking cookies enable Demcon to create a user profile of visitors to the Demcon website. This profile serves to tailor advertisements to you as a specific user, so that they are as relevant to you as possible.

Third parties’ tracking cookies
With your permission, third parties place so-called tracking cookies on your device after you visit the Demcon website. These tracking cookies enable third parties to create a user profile of visitors to the Demcon website. This profile is partly built up on the basis of comparable information that these third parties receive from your visit to other websites in their network.

Google Analytics
Google cookies are placed on the Demcon website as part of the ‘Analytics’ service. Demcon uses the services of Google Analytics for analytical data about its website. Google may provide this information to third parties if Google is legally obliged to do so, or if third parties process the information on behalf of Google. Demcon has no influence on this. Demcon has set up Google Analytics in a privacy-friendly manner in accordance with the manual of the Dutch Data Protection Authority. Demcon has therefore not granted Google permission to use the acquired information for other Google services. In addition, the information collected by Google is anonymized as much as possible. Your full IP address is explicitly not provided. For more information about the processing of personal data by Google, please go to: www.google.com/policies/privacy/partners/.
