Cookie statement

What this site stores.

In short: no advertising and no tracking. One analytics service, Google Analytics, runs only if you allow it. Below is exactly what is kept on your device, what for, and how to change your choice.

What we store

The first three rows are local storage; Google Analytics sets cookies. The rules are the same: storage that is not strictly necessary is only allowed with your consent.

Name Kind What for Retention
axveco:consent Strictly necessary Remembers your choice in the cookie dialog, so we do not ask again on every visit. 12 months, after which we ask again
axveco:lang Strictly necessary Remembers whether you chose Dutch or English in the language switch. Only written when you click a language yourself. The automatic choice on a first visit reads your browser language and stores nothing. Until you pick another language or clear your browser storage
axveco:headline Functional (only with consent) Remembers which of the four homepage headlines you saw last, so the next one appears. Until you withdraw consent or clear your browser storage
_ga Analytics (only with consent) Google Analytics: tells visitors apart with a random number, so we can count how many visitors there are. Up to 2 years
_ga_NZKF5F95ZK Analytics (only with consent) Google Analytics: keeps track of the session of one visit. Up to 2 years

What we do not do

  • No analytics without your consent.
  • No advertising or tracking cookies.
  • No social media pixels or embedded trackers.
  • No profiling and no reselling of data.

Google Analytics has its own category in the dialog. Its script loads only after you consent to it, and you can withdraw that choice at any time.

Third parties

This site's typefaces are served from our own server. Displaying a page therefore fetches nothing from Google Fonts or any other outside domain, and your IP address is not passed to one either.

Without your consent, this site fetches nothing from outside: no video embeds, no maps, no chat widgets, no trackers. If you consent to analytics, the site loads Google Analytics from Google and sends measurement data to Google. The contact page also carries a spam check from Cloudflare (Turnstile), which stops bots from using the form. For that, a script is fetched from Cloudflare on that page and Cloudflare is shown your IP address. This does not happen on any other page.

Changing your choice

You can withdraw or change your consent at any time. That is as easy as giving it: reopen the dialog and choose what you want. Withdraw a category and we delete its storage from your device and stop measuring straight away. What Google has already received is governed by its own policy.

You can also delete stored data yourself through your browser settings.
