2. Cookie policy

la-traverse.be uses cookies in order to better adapt our websites to your needs and preferences. It is possible for you to refuse cookies. However, in that case, we must inform you that certain parts of our websites will not be able to function properly. You may also no longer be able to access certain services that we offer on our website.

Below we would like to give you more information about cookies on the basis of a simple Q&A structure.

What is a cookie?

A cookie is a text file that is left behind in the web browser of your computer or your mobile device - such as your Smartphone, iPhone, iPad and so on - by the server of the website that you are consulting at that moment. A cookie contains a code which can only be read by the server that placed it there. The server thus has no access to other information that is located on your computer or your mobile device.

How is a cookie file structured?

A cookie file is composed of:

• the name of the server that installed the cookie file
• an expiry date is also given
• a unique numerical code

What is the utility of a cookie?

We use cookies to ensure that your surfing experience as a visitor to one of our websites is as optimal as possible. This is done in order to e.g. allow you to more quickly and easily navigate between the different parts of the website, or to adapt the content of our site to your personal preferences e.g. language preference.

Where can I find these cookies?

Cookies are installed in a separate folder of your browser on your computer or your mobile device.

What is a 'Session cookie'?

The function of this cookie is to recognise your browser during the visit to our websites.

What is a 'Permanent cookie'?

The function of this cookie is to recognise your browser if you visit our websites again at some later time.

Which cookies are necessary?

If you turn off the necessary cookies you will have the impression that certain parts of our websites do not function properly, if at all. la-traverse.be uses such cookies, for example, when filling in contact forms or in order to be able to discuss on our blogs. la-traverse.be uses 'necessary' cookies when you wish to log on to your personal account. On the basis of these cookies we can securely check your identity in order to thus grant access to the personal information that you have left behind.

What are 'Functional cookies'?

As the term itself suggests, these cookies ensure the optimal functioning of our websites so that your experience when visiting our websites is as pleasant and personal as possible. la-traverse.be uses 'Functional cookies' to 'remember' your personal preferences and to avoid the same communication in case of repeated visits, for example when participating in an action.

What are 'Performance cookies'?

la-traverse.be uses 'Performance cookies' in order to check how you use our websites, with a view to adapting and improving the content and user-friendliness of our websites. For example, we keep track of the number of visitors per page, or the language in which the website is most frequently visited.

What are 'Third Party cookies'?

These are cookies that are written from ads placed by third parties on the websites of la-traverse.be. The reason for doing this is to be able to adapt the ads and/or their content to your personal preferences. You see these cookies exclusively if you have not turned them off. When third party cookies are used, neither la-traverse.be nor the advertisers (third parties) possess your personal data.

What is 'Embedded content'?

On its websites, la-traverse.be can refer to other sites via a clickable link, which will take you to the website of a different organisation. It is possible that the website linked to also makes use of cookies. la-traverse.be advises you to consult at that moment the conditions of use of the organisation in question, mentioned on their own website, in order to learn about their privacy and cookie policy.

How can I manage the cookies?

Managing cookies is something you can do yourself. You can adapt the settings of your browser to your personal preferences. You always have the possibility of deleting already-installed cookies and refusing new cookies by adapting your browser settings.

Google Analytics cookies

This website uses Google Analytics, one of the best-known and most-trusted solutions for collecting analytical data on the internet. This helps us to better understand how you use the website so that we can then make further improvements. For example, these cookies can keep track of how long you remain on our website as well as the pages that you visit.
