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 that you use to visit the Website (“Device”). By placing a cookie, the web page server can recognize your Device and send the stored information back to the web page server.
Third-party cookies register the date of first and current visits in combination with the time. Your IP address and/or other unique device number is also collected. Our own cookies do not capture that. A cookie cannot harm your Device or the files stored on your Device.
The validity period of cookies from the moment they are placed on your Device can vary. Some cookies used by Risk.nl are session cookies. This means they are automatically deleted from your hard drive when you end your session (i.e., when you log out or leave our Website). The permanent cookies remain until they are deleted or until the validity period expires. Our permanent cookies have varying lifespans. We never keep these permanent cookies longer than for the purposes described hereafter. You can also delete permanent cookies yourself via the browser settings. This is explained in this Cookie Statement.
How do we use cookies?
We use both our own cookies and third-party cookies placed on your device by third parties.
Cookies from Risk.nl
We use necessary cookies to display the Website and to enable navigation. These cookies also ensure that your preferences and settings are remembered, for example, for accepting or rejecting certain cookies and remembering, for example, your postcode or license plate so you can quickly perform your comparison again later. Our cookies are necessary for the functioning of the website, add functionality for you, and/or improve your experience.
Third-party cookies
RISK.nl also uses analytical cookies from Google Analytics. With Google Analytics, we gain insight into how the website is used, for example, how long it takes for a page to load and how you navigate through the various pages. Using this information, we can create anonymous reports. This allows 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 set them up in a privacy-friendly manner.
If you want to know more about the analytical cookies from Google Analytics and how long they are valid, you can consult the information page of Google Analytics. 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.
