Cookie Policy (English)
Last updated: 22 July 2026
This cookie policy describes which cookies and similar technologies Paul & Erwin vzw uses on The Damnettes website, why we use them, and how you can manage your choices.
1. What are cookies?
Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. Some cookies are essential for the site to work; others help us collect statistics, measure marketing, or display embedded content (such as videos).
2. Which cookies do we use?
Essential cookies (always active)
These cookies are necessary for the website to function and cannot be disabled via our cookie settings.
| Cookie / technology | Purpose | Retention |
|---|---|---|
| Laravel session cookie | Admin login, session management | Session / per browser settings |
| CSRF token (XSRF-TOKEN) | Form security | Session |
Analytics (optional)
| Service | Purpose | Provider |
|---|---|---|
| Google Analytics 4 | Website visit statistics | Google LLC |
These cookies are only placed if you consent via the cookie banner or cookie settings.
Marketing (optional)
| Service | Purpose | Provider |
|---|---|---|
| Google Ads | Conversion measurement for contact requests | Google LLC |
These cookies are only placed if you give marketing consent.
Video / embedded content (optional)
| Service | Purpose | Provider |
|---|---|---|
| YouTube embeds | Embedded videos on the homepage | Google LLC (YouTube) |
To watch video content, you need consent for YouTube cookies. Without that consent, we show a placeholder instead of the video. Analytics and marketing cookies are not required for videos.
3. How do you give consent?
On your first visit, we show a cookie banner with the following options:
- Accept all — all optional cookies are activated
- Reject all — only essential cookies remain active
- Settings — choose per category (analytics, marketing, YouTube)
You can change your choices at any time via Cookie settings in the website footer.
If you previously accepted only essential cookies, you can still watch videos later by clicking Accept YouTube cookies and load video on a video placeholder, or by enabling YouTube in cookie settings.
4. Retention of your choice
Your cookie choice is stored locally in your browser (localStorage) until you change it or clear your browser data.
5. Managing cookies via your browser
You can also delete or block cookies via your browser settings. Note that some website features may then be limited.
