The KNHB places cookies on its platforms. Cookies are small text files that are placed on a PC, tablet or mobile phone by a web page. They are used to improve the functioning of the Platforms and to monitor web visits, so that we can check how many people have visited the website in a given period.
You can delete cookies that have already been placed and refuse the placement of new cookies via the browser settings on your computer. The method for doing this differs per browser; if necessary, consult the help function of your browser. In this cookie statement, we explain which cookies are placed and for what purposes.
Functional
Functional cookies are necessary for the KNHB platforms to function properly. The cookies are used, for example, to pass information from one page to the next, to remember the contents of a shopping basket, or a login status. Or to store preferences such as language, location or the desired number of search results to be displayed.
Analytical
Analytical cookies are necessary to analyse the KNHB platforms in order to gain insight into the functioning of the website and apps in terms of visitor numbers and visitor behaviour. This enables us to make the structure, navigation and content of the platform as user-friendly as possible. We do not trace the statistics and other reports back to individuals.
Social media
Social media cookies ensure that you can view social embedded content on the KNHB platforms and like and/or share web pages on social networks. In addition, social media parties can use the information they collect via these cookies (e.g. your surfing behaviour) to build a profile of you and show you targeted content or advertisements. For more information about the cookies that social media parties place and the information they may collect with them, please refer to the statements that these parties provide on their own websites, see the links below. Please note: these statements are subject to change on a regular basis. The KNHB has no influence on this.

Advertisements
Advertising cookies enable us to show you advertisements on the KNHB platforms. These advertisements are placed on the platform by us and/or third parties and are a source of income for us, which we use to finance our activities. In order to make advertisements as relevant as possible, previously collected information, such as information about your surfing behaviour, may be used.
Personalised content and offers
Personalisation cookies enable us to provide you with relevant content and/or advertising on the KNHB platforms. Our goal is to provide visitors to the platform with information that is as relevant as possible to them. That is why we try to tailor the platform to each visitor as much as possible. We do this not only through the content of the platform, but also through the advertisements that are displayed. Collected information may also be used to tailor content and/or advertising to you on other KNHB websites or apps.
