1.2.1. Website
When you visit our website, we process certain personal data such as IP addresses and cookies in order to ensure the proper functioning and security of our website.
The processing of personal data obtained in this way is based on a legitimate interest relating to the security and proper functioning of our website and on your consent with respect to the analysis of use of our website. Except in the case of necessary cookies, we always ask for your consent. The cookies used on our website are listed below.
Cookies
A cookie is a small text file which can be stored on your computer when you visit websites. Information, such as your selected language for a website, is recorded in a text file. When you revisit the website subsequently, this cookie is sent back to the site in question. The website thus recognises your browser and can, for example, recall your language selection.
Cookies generally also have an expiry date. For example, some cookies (known as session cookies) are deleted when you close your browser, while others (called permanent cookies) are retained longer on your computer, sometimes even until you delete them manually.
Why do we use cookies?
Alarm Solutions, the operator of this website, uses three types of cookies on https://www.alarmsolutions.be/ :
- essential cookies;
- functional cookies;
- analytics cookies.
In order to manage the content of its website, Alarm Solutions places essential and functional cookies. These cookies are necessary for this website to function properly. It is not possible to reject these cookies if you wish to visit our website.
In addition Alarm Solutions also uses “Google Analytics” and “JetPack” for analytical purposes. This analysis tool installs cookies which we use to quantify visits to the website (traffic). This enables us in particular to know how many times a specific page has been read. We use this information purely to improve our website content or as the basis for a new campaign on a subject arousing a lot of interest. Use of such cookies for analytical purposes is subject to your prior consent. These cookies will, therefore, only be installed on your device once your consent has been given.
