Ad targeting cookies

These third-party cookies are placed on advertising platforms or networks to:

Display and follow up on advertisements
Allow advertising networks to show adverts that are relevant for you, based on your previous activity (this is also referred to as “behavioral” or “direct” advertising)
They are usually installed by third party advertising networks with the consent of a website operator. They can remember that you visited a certain website and this information may be shared with other organisations, such as other advertisers. However, they cannot define who you are, because the collected data is never linked to your profile.

“Retargeting” is a way of advertising based on interests, which allows us to show advertisements based on your previous browsing activity on our website. This allows us to advertise to people who have previously visited our website. These cookies are usually installed on your device by third party advertising networks. These are some of the most important external networks we work with:

Facebook
LinkedIn
Google Adwords
Bing
Without these cookies, the online advertisements you see would be less relevant for you and your interests.

However, you can delete cookies that have been installed or object to the installation of any new cookies using the browser settings on your computer. How exactly you can do this depends on your browser. If necessary, consult your browser’s ‘help’ function or go to http://www.whatarecookies.com/delete.asp for more details.
