What are cookies?
Cookies are small, simple text files that a web page server places and stores on the hard drive or in the memory of your computer, tablet or other electronic device used to visit the Website (“device”). By placing a cookie, the web page server can recognise your device and send the stored information back to the web page server.
Third-party cookies record a date of first and current visit in combination with the time. Your IP address and/or other unique device number is also collected. Our own cookies do not record this. A cookie cannot cause damage to your device or to the files stored on your device.
The period of validity of cookies from the moment they are placed on your device may vary. Some of the cookies used by RISK.nl are session cookies. This means they are automatically removed from your hard drive when you end the session (that is, when you log out or leave our website). Persistent cookies remain stored until they are deleted or until their validity period expires. Our persistent cookies have varying lifespans. We never keep these persistent cookies longer than required for the purposes described below. You can also delete persistent cookies yourself via your browser settings. How to do this is explained in this cookie statement.
How do we use cookies?
We use both our own cookies and third party cookies that are placed on your device by third parties.
Cookies from Risk.nl
We use necessary cookies to display the Website and enable navigation. These cookies also ensure that your preferences and settings are remembered, for example for accepting or refusing certain cookies and remembering, for example, your postcode or registration number so that you can quickly run your comparison again at a later time. Our cookies are necessary for the functioning of the website, add functionality for you and/or improve your experience.
Third-party cookies (third party cookies)
RISK.nl also uses analytical cookies from Google Analytics. Google Analytics gives us insight into how the website is used, for example how long it takes for a page to load and how you navigate through the different pages. With the help of this information, we can compile anonymous reports. This enables us to improve the website and make the information on it easier for you to find.
To ensure that these analytical cookies from Google Analytics have as little impact as possible on your privacy, we have configured them in a privacy-friendly way.
If you want to know more about Google Analytics analytical cookies and how long they remain valid, you can consult the Google Analytics information page. In addition, Google offers an opt-out option in the form of a browser add-on. This prevents Google Analytics from collecting your data via websites that use a supported version of Google Analytics JavaScript (analytics.js, gtag.js). More general information about how Google uses cookies can be found on their general information page.
