Cookies help provide additional functionality to the website or to help us analyse website usage more accurately.

We only use the IP addresses collected through the website to ensure the appropriate and secure management and operation of the Qompium’s services. In addition to preventing unauthorised access, the collection of IP addresses enables quick identification of the cause and restoration of normal operations in the event of a failure of the website. We do not use or disclose IP addresses in connection with individuals’ personal information.
While we collect information on how you use the website’s services, we preserve the anonymity of individual users in the use or disclosure of this information. However, when we deem it necessary for the protection of the website or of its users/visitors, we may implement measures by using IP addresses to identify individuals.
7. Cookies
There are many different cookies that can be distinguished according to functionality, origin or storage period. Below we first give a general description of the types of cookies that are used on the website. Then a detailed overview is given of the different cookies used on the website.
7.1 Strictly necessary cookies
These cookies are necessary for the website to function and cannot be disabled in our systems. They are usually only set in response to actions you have taken, such as setting your privacy preferences, logging in or filling out forms. They are necessary for good communication and facilitate navigation (e.g. returning to a previous page, etc.).
7.2 Technical or functional cookies
Some cookies ensure that certain parts of the website work properly and that your user preferences remain known. By placing functional cookies, we make it easier for you to visit our website. This way, you do not need to repeatedly enter the same information when visiting our website and, for example, the items remain in your shopping cart until you have paid. We may place these cookies without your consent.
7.3 Statistic cookies
These cookies collect information about the use of a website such as the number of visitors, the time visitors spend on a web page and any error messages. They help Qompium to improve the performance of the website. These cookies do not identify you as an individual.
7.4 Advertising cookies
These cookies are used to deliver content that is more relevant to you. They can be used to deliver targeted ads or to limit the number of times you see an ad. They also help us measure the effectiveness of advertising campaigns on our website. We may use these cookies to remember websites that you have visited, and we may share this information with other parties, including advertisers. These cookies may also be set by our advertising partners through our website. They may be used by those companies to build a profile of your interests and show you relevant ads on other sites.
7.5 Social media buttons
On our website we have included buttons for Facebook and Instagram to promote webpages (e.g. “like”, “pin”) or share (e.g. “tweet”) on social networks like Facebook and Instagram. These buttons work using pieces of code coming from Facebook and Instagram themselves. This code places cookies. These social media buttons also can store and process certain information, so a personalized advertisement can be shown to you.
