Cookie policy

Effective date: March 15, 2021

Spacewell International NV, with registered office at Sneeuwbeslaan 20 bus 3, 2610 Wilrijk, incorporated under Belgian law and registered with the Crossroad Bank of Enterprises under number BE 0846.845.929 (“Spacewell International NV”, “we”, “us”) believes in transparency when it comes to the protection of your personal data. With this cookie policy we provide you detailed information about how and when we use cookies, what different types of cookies and technologies we use and how all this applies to the Spacewell website. As we aim to stay current with the latest data protection technology and the data protection legislation we may adjust our cookie policy over time. Please refer to the ‘effective date’ at the top of this page to see when this cookie policy was last modified.

Thanks for this nice introduction, but what are cookies exactly?

Cookies are small files which are stored on a user’s computer. They are designed to hold a modest amount of data specific to a client and website, and can be accessed either by the web server or the client computer. Each cookie is effectively a small lookup table containing pairs of (key, data) values – for example (first name, John) (last name, Smith). Once the cookie has been read by the code on the server or client computer, the data can be retrieved and used to customize a web page appropriately.

Ok, so a cookie is nothing more than a piece of data you store on my device. But why would you want that, and why would I want that?

We use cookies for example to increase the user-friendliness of our website by better tailoring it to your wishes and preferences. For example, with cookies we can remember your language preference. That way when visiting our website again in the future, you don’t have to tell us your language preference again and you will have a better experience.

We also use cookies to collect information about how you use our website. We track the number of visitors, which are popular web pages, and the time visitors spend on a web page. Based on how users behave on our website, we can optimize and personalize the user experience. There exist all kinds of cookies, which can be classified by function, origin and lifespan. For a complete overview of the types of cookies, you can go to http://www.allaboutcookies.org.

I get the idea behind cookies, still I’d like you to tell me what cookies exactly you are going to store on my device.

Essential cookies

These are the cookies you don’t want to miss out on. They are required for the operation of our site to enable you to move around our site and use its features. They include, for example, cookies that enable you to log into secure areas of our site. Without these cookies, the website will not be able to operate in full.

PHPSESSID (MODX)To store the logged-in user’s username and encrypted key. Without this cookie, a user is unable to proceed to areas of the website that require authenticated access.Expires 30 minutes after the user’s browser is closed.1st party

Functional cookies

These are used to recognize you when you return to our sites and apps and enable us to remember the choices you make when using them. This enables us to personalize our content for you, greet you by name and remember your preferences (for example, your choice of language or region).

Basically, functional cookies make the functioning of our websites and apps easier and provide a personalized browsing experience. Without them the website will still work, but it will be less personalized and it will be less smooth.
