A cookie is a small text file that can be stored on your computer when you visit websites.
What is a cookie?
Information is saved in this text file, such as your choice of language on a website. When you visit the website later again, this cookie returns to the concerned website. In this way, the website recognizes your browser and can for example retain your choice of language.
Cookies usually also have an expiration date. For example, some cookies are automatically deleted when you close your browser (so-called session cookies), while others can be stored longer on your computer, sometimes until you delete them manually (so-called permanent cookies).
Why do we use cookies?
The FPS BOSA (FPD Policy and Support), administrator of the website www.nameofthewebsiteinquestion.be, uses 3 types of cookies on its website.
- Essential cookies;
- Functional cookies;
- Cookies for analytical purposes.
The FPS BOSA uses essential and functional cookies to manage the content of its website. These cookies are necessary for the proper functioning of this website. It is not possible to refuse these cookies if you want to visit our website.
The FPS BOSA also uses "MATOMO" for analytical purposes. This analytical tool places cookies that we use in order to quantify the visits (traffic) on the website. This allows us to know how many times a particular page is consulted. We only use this information to improve the content of our website or as a basis for a new campaign by determining certain topics of great interest.
For this analysis tool, we use a Matomo-Cloud, an external partner that has both its organisation and the underlying data centres in Europe and is fully committed to GDPR compliance and respect for privacy. For the use of cookies for analytical purposes, your prior consent is requested. These cookies will therefore only be installed on your device after you have given your consent.
