Cookies

What are cookies?

A cookie is a small text file that a website stores on your computer or mobile device when you visit the site.

  • First party cookies are cookies set by the website you’re visiting. Only that website can read them. In addition, a website might potentially use external services, which also set their own cookies, known as third-party cookies.
  • Persistent cookies are cookies saved on your computer and that are not deleted automatically when you quit your browser, unlike a session cookie, which is deleted when you quit your browser.

First time you visit this website, you will be prompted to accept or refuse cookies.

The purpose is to enable the site to remember your preferences (such as user name, language, etc.) for a certain period of time.

That way, you don’t have to re-enter them when browsing around the site during the same visit.

Cookies can also be used to establish anonymised statistics about the browsing experience on our sites.

How do we use cookies?

The website mostly uses “first-party cookies”. These are cookies set and controlled by the Webshop, not by any external organisation.

However, to view some of our pages, you might have to accept cookies from external organisations.

The 3 types of first-party cookie we use are to:

  • store visitor preferences
  • make our websites operational
  • gather analytics data (about user behaviour)

Visitor preferences

These are set by us and only we can read them. They remember:

  • if you have agreed to (or refused) this site’s cookie policy
  • if you have already replied to our survey pop-up – so you won't be asked again
Name Service Purpose Cookie type and duration
.AspNet.Consent Cookie consent Stores your cookie consent (so you won't be asked again) First-party persistent cookie, 1 year
.AspNetCore.Culture Localization Stores your language preference First-party persistent cookie, 100 years

Operational cookies

There are some cookies that we have to include in order for certain web pages to function. For this reason, they do not require your consent. These are technical cookies, that are required in some IT systems:

Name Service Purpose Cookie type and duration
applicationId Core Identifies your current application First-party session cookie, deleted after you quit your browser
.AspNetCore.Antiforgery.SESSIONID Security Used to prevent Cross Site Scripting attacks (read more) First-party session cookie, deleted after you quit your browser

For technical reasons these cookies can change name (e.g. .AspNetCore.Antiforgery.SESSIONID).
