Cookies

1. Cookies on Sherepunjab.nl
   Around June 5, 2012, new regulations came into force regarding the use of so-called “cookies” on web pages. These rules have been incorporated into Article 11.7a of the Telecommunications Act (Tw). The new regulations also relate to your privacy. Because we consider your privacy very important, we would like to inform you about this subject on this page.

Because the new legislation on cookies is not yet entirely clear to all authorities as to how it will work in practice, Sherepunjab.nl will continue to closely monitor all developments and will do everything it can to continue to comply with the new cookie legislation.
We therefore also strive to inform you openly and as fully as possible about cookies that are used on Sherepunjab.nl. We use cookies to improve the ease of use on the site. We try to filter advertisements according to your interests. Below you will find a further explanation about cookies, what they are used for and how you can opt out of cookies if you wish. On this webpage we will keep you informed about all developments regarding cookies.

2. What are cookies?
   Cookies are small text files that are placed on a computer, telephone or tablet. The cookies are read by the browser (including Google Chrome, Internet Explorer, Safari, Firefox) when opening an internet page. The maker of a cookie determines what text files he places in the relevant cookie.
   As long as you as a user do not enter any personal data on the site you visit, the cookie cannot contain this information. There are direct and indirect cookies, also known as first- and third-party cookies. In principle, cookies are not dangerous; they are not computer programs and cannot be used to distribute computer viruses.
3. Type of cookies

3.1 First party cookies
With a first-party (direct) cookie, the website in question places a cookie with the user who opens the website. First-party cookies have different purposes. For example, one of the purposes is to remember the user’s login name and to remember items of selected articles in a shopping cart.

3.2 Third Party Cookie
A third-party cookie ‘follows’ a user over different websites for a longer period of time and is thus able to build up a so-called ‘profile’ of a user. These cookies are often used for targeted online advertising. An advertising network then places a cookie on a user’s computer, phone or tablet via a third-party site. This cookie can be read by the network on the various websites that are in the advertising network.

3.3 Sharing with Social Media Networks
You will undoubtedly already have experience with companies placing cookies on your computer, tablet or telephone. This happens, for example, when you share products or content from such a site with friends via social networking sites (such as Twitter or Facebook).
