1. What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small data or text files stored on your device when you visit websites or use applications. They can serve different purposes: some are essential for a website to function properly, while others are used to improve your browsing experience (such as functional, analytical, or marketing cookies).
The Belgian Law on Electronic Communications (13 June 2005) regulates the use of cookies and implements the European e-Privacy Directive. This means cookie legislation can differ across European member states.
