LIEMÈS Cookie Policy
LIEMÈS uses cookies on its website. In this document, we would like to provide some clarification and explanation regarding why we use certain cookies and what this means for you.
What is a cookie?
A cookie is a small text file that is stored on your computer, tablet, or smartphone when you visit our website. Information is stored in this text file. This information can be recognized by this website during a subsequent visit.
How long do cookies last?
Cookies have an expiration date. Some cookies are deleted when you close your browser. Others (such as those containing login credentials) can remain on your computer for years if you don’t delete them.
Why cookies?
You usually can’t tell exactly what a cookie is used for. As we mentioned earlier, cookies are small text files, but the content of those files is usually unreadable computer code.
That’s why we’d like to explain a little more.
LIEMÈS uses cookies:
- to ensure that our website works properly;
- to identify users:
- This allows us to see how many visitors come to our website and which parts of the site they visit;
- to show you ads that are relevant to you.
What types of cookies are there?
Persistent cookies
When you visit our website again, LIEMÈS recognizes you using persistent cookies. This allows us to tailor our website to your preferences. If you have given your consent to the use of cookies, we can store this information in a cookie. This means you don’t have to keep re-entering your preferences, saving you time and making your experience on our website more enjoyable. You can delete persistent cookies through your browser settings.
Session cookies
Session cookies allow us to see which parts of the website you viewed during your visit. This enables us to tailor our service as closely as possible to our visitors’ browsing behavior. Session cookies are automatically deleted as soon as you close your web browser.
Tracking cookies
With your consent, we place tracking cookies on your device. These cookies can be accessed later whenever you visit a website in our network. This allows us to determine that, in addition to our website, you have also visited other websites in our network. The tracking cookies may also be used by advertisers within the same network.
Tracking cookies are used to build a profile. This profile is not linked to your name, address, or email address, for example. Its sole purpose is to tailor advertisements to your profile so that they are as relevant to you as possible.
You can delete tracking cookies through your browser settings. Some tracking cookies are placed by third parties that, among other things, display ads to you via our website. You can delete these cookies centrally so that they are not re-placed on a third-party website.
Google Analytics
Our website uses a cookie provided by the U.S.-based company Google as part of its “Analytics” service. We use this service to track and receive reports on how visitors use the website. Google may provide this information to third parties if Google is legally required to do so, or to the extent that third parties process the information on Google’s behalf. We have no influence over this. We have, however, permitted Google to use the analytics information obtained for other Google services. The information Google collects is anonymized as much as possible. We have requested that Google mask your IP address , and we have entered into a data processing agreement with Google.
Social Media
Our website includes buttons that allow you to promote or share web pages on social networks such as Facebook and X. These buttons work using code provided by Facebook and Twitter, respectively. This code places cookies. We have no control over this. Please read the privacy policies of Facebook and Twitter (which may change regularly) to learn how they handle your (personal) data collected through these cookies. The information they collect is anonymized as much as possible. The information is transferred to and stored by Twitter, Facebook, Google+, and LinkedIn on servers in the United States.
Right to access, correct, or delete
You have the right to request access to, correction, or deletion of your data. To prevent misuse, we may ask you to provide adequate proof of your identity. If your request concerns access to personal data linked to a cookie, you must include a copy of the cookie in question. You can find this in your browser settings.
Enabling, disabling, and deleting cookies
Cookies can send your personal data to all sorts of companies. If you no longer want this to happen, you need to delete the cookies from your computer, tablet, or smartphone. Deleting cookies isn’t very difficult, but keep in mind that after clearing them, you’ll have to log in to websites again, and your passwords may no longer be saved. You may also need to reconfigure some settings.
