COOKIES POLICY

Cookies are lines of text that serve as digital traces which are sent to a user's device by a server (in this case the "www.kinto.be" website server) whenever they consult a web page on a website. Cookies are automatically stored by the user's browser and transferred to the server that generated them each time the user visits the same web page. Thus cookies can make it possible and/or easier to consult certain web pages, thereby improving the user’s navigation for example, or allowing the storage of pages consulted and other specific information, such as most frequently consulted pages, connection errors, etc. For full and simplified use of the Website, it is therefore desirable that users set their browsers to accept cookies.

Browsers are often configured to automatically accept cookies. However, users have the option of changing the basic configuration settings and thus deactivating or deleting cookies (punctually or definitively), resulting in non-optimal use of the Website. Users can also check the cookies that their browser stores via the cookie settings in their browser. By continuing on the Website, you accept our cookie policy.

We use the following cookies:

• Analytical cookies/performance cookies : these enable the storage of information pertaining to the efficiency of a website's responses to user questions, for the sole purpose of improving the website’s operation; for example: which pages the visitor consults, which errors or delays occur when opening web pages, recognising and counting the number of visitors and monitoring how visitors navigate the website when they consult them. Within that context, kinto.be uses Google Analytics on its website, a web analysis service from Google Inc. ("Google"). According to Google's confidentiality policy, the information generated by the cookie pertaining to your use of this website is routed to a Google server in America and subsequently stored there. However, if you have activated IP anonymisation on this website, then Google abbreviates your IP address in advance within European Union member states. Only in exceptional cases is the full IP address sent to a Google server in the USA and abbreviated there. Google uses this information on behalf of kinto.be to analyse your website usage, compile reports on the activity on this website and to provide other services related to website and internet usage across kinto.be. The IP address sent by the browser within the context of Google Analytics is not combined with other data from Google.

• Functional cookies : these allow the website to remember the choices made by the user and to recognise that user when they reconsult our website in order to be able to offer an improved service. They can be used to determine your language preference for example.

The data collected via these cookies is not sent to third parties, subject to what has been stated above. We can consequently guarantee that this information shall not be used for other purposes.

If you have any questions, comments or complaints regarding this Privacy Statement or the processing of your personal data, please contact us.
