Important note about data processing in connection with Google Analytics
This website uses Google Analytics, a web analysis service provided by Google Ireland Limited. If the data controller on this website is located outside the European Economic Area and Switzerland, the Google Analytics data processing is carried out by Google LLC. In the following, Google LLC and Google Ireland Limited are referred to as “Google”.
Google Analytics uses so-called “cookies”. These are text files that are stored on the computer of the visitor to the site and that enable an analysis of the visitor’s use of the website. The information generated by these cookies about the use of this website by the website visitor (including the abbreviated IP address) is generally transmitted to a Google server and stored there.
Google Analytics is only used on this website with the extension “_anonymizeIp()”. This extension anonymizes the IP address by shortening it and excludes direct personal referrals. With this extension, Google shortens the IP address within the member states of the European Union or in other signatory countries to the Agreement on the European Economic Area. Only in exceptional cases will the full IP address be transmitted to a Google server in the USA and shortened there. The IP address transmitted by the respective browser as part of Google Analytics will not be merged with other data held by Google.
On behalf of the website operator, Google will use the information collected for the purpose of evaluating the use of the website, compiling reports on website activity and providing the site operator with other services relating to website activity and internet usage (Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR). The legitimate interest in data processing lies in the optimisation of this website, the analysis of the use of the website and the adaptation of the content. The interests of users are adequately protected by pseudonymisation.
Google LLC. guarantees an adequate level of data protection based on the European Standard Contractual Clauses. The data transmitted and associated with cookies, user IDs (e.g. user IDs) or advertising IDs is automatically deleted after 50 months. Data that has reached the retention period is automatically deleted once a month.
The visitor to the website can refuse the use of cookies by selecting the appropriate settings in his browser. The visitor can also prevent Google from collecting information (including the IP address) via cookies and processing this information by downloading and installing this browser plugin: https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout.
The visitor to the site can prevent Google Analytics data from collecting data by clicking here. An “opt-out cookie” is then placed on the website, which ensures that the data of the website visitor is no longer collected when the visitor visits the website.
You can find more information about data processing and data use by Google, the options for settings and objections in the Google privacy policy (https://policies.google.com/privacy?hl=nl) and in the settings for Google Ads (https://adssettings.google.com/authenticated).
reCAPTCHA
We use the reCAPTCHA service of Google LLC (Google) to protect data transmitted through this website. This function checks whether a message is actually sent by a person, in order to prevent ‘spam bots’ from automatically sending messages or leaving comments, for example. This involves sending a visitor’s IP address and possibly other data to make Google reCAPTCHA work. The content of a message is sent to and processed by Google for this purpose. The IP address is abbreviated and therefore anonymized in countries that are part of the EU and states that participate in the treaty for the European Economic Area. In exceptional cases, an IP address will be transmitted in its entirety to a Google server in the United States and abbreviated there. On behalf of the operator of this website, Google will use this data to evaluate your use of this service. The IP address transmitted by reCAPTCHA will not be merged with other data held by Google. The collection of this data is subject to Google’s data protection regulations. You can find more information about Google’s privacy policy on this page:

By using reCAPTCHA, you agree that Google may process data about you in the manner and for the purpose described above.
