This Cookie Policy outlines the use of cookies and similar technologies on the Dutch IoT Solutions B.V (DIS) website, app and digital platforms, in accordance with your preferences set on our cookie consent manager. It is intended to inform users about the types of cookies we employ, their purpose, and the choices available regarding their use.
What are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files that store bits of information on your computer or mobile device when you access a website. These cookies enable the website to remember your device. Cookies that are directly managed by Dutch IoT Solutions are known as “first-party cookies”. In contrast, “third-party cookies” refer to cookies that are set and handled by external parties, as outlined further below.
Why does DIS use cookies and other similar technologies?
Cookies perform a variety of functions, such as facilitating smooth navigation between pages, memorising your preferences, and enhancing the overall user experience. They also play a role in making the ads you encounter online more suited to your interests. Furthermore, cookies are used for analysing how our websites, app, digital content are utilised (known as analytics cookies) and for supporting or tracking interactions with different platforms.
Does DIS use any cookies from third party companies?
We employ a variety of third-party cookies, web beacons and other tracking and storage technologies from companies like Facebook, Microsoft, YouTube, Google Analytics, Instagram, Hotjar, LinkedIn and HubSpot. These technologies are used to gather web analytics and insights about our websites, app, and digital platforms, which can also be used to deliver targeted advertisements. These third-party companies use code to capture details about your interactions on our sites, including the pages you visit, the links you click, and the duration of your stay. This code is operational only during your visit to a Connected Load Carrier website. For more details on how these entities gather and utilise data on our behalf, please consult their respective privacy policies.
Does DIS use any tracking technologies similar to cookies?
We might also utilise web beacons (including conversion pixels) or similar technologies for purposes akin to these mentioned previously. These can be embedded on our websites, within marketing emails or our newsletters, and on affiliated sites to track if messages have been opened and links have been followed.
Unlike cookies, web beacons do not store information on your device, but they may operate in tandem with cookies to monitor site activities. The details shared about cookies are equally relevant to web beacons and comparable technologies. Conversion pixels are tiny code snippets placed on specific web pages, activated when someone visits the page, resulting in an increase in the conversion count.
What if I do not want cookies or similar tracking technologies?
If you prefer not to use cookies or similar tracking technologies, you have the option to modify your preferences via our cookie consent manager. Should you wish to delete cookies that are already on your device, you can accomplish this through your browser’s settings. Additionally, to prevent new cookies from being installed on your device, you can adjust your preferences using our cookie consent manager.
