3. What are social media plugins or pixels and why do we use them?
In addition to cookies, we also use social media plugins and/or pixels (for example the Facebook pixel) on our Website. Social media plugins allow us to recognize you based on your social media profile and import certain data (such as your identification data and contact information or your profile photo). Furthermore, they allow us to use the "share" buttons on social media (LinkedIn, X/Twitter, Facebook). More information in this regard can be found in your social network's privacy policy. If you do not wish to establish a connection with your social media profile, please log out before using our Website. Pixels are pieces of software code used on a website to measure the effectiveness of advertising campaigns and to gain insight into how visitors use the website. The pixel code is placed in the website's header. When someone visits the website and takes an action, the pixel is activated and reports this action to us. In this way, we are able to verify which website visitor takes specific actions and we can contact you at a later stage through targeted advertisements, tailored to your areas of interest (also called "retargeting"). We use this data to (i) ensure that our advertisements are presented to the right categories of people, (ii) create target audiences for our advertisements, and (iii) establish additional advertising tools. We recommend that you regularly check and update your privacy settings on the platforms concerned and set your preferences using the means available to you.4. What cookies do we use?
