Cookies that ensure that the website functions properly

These cookies are necessary to make it possible to surf the Nu-Tek website(s) and use the website's functions, such as accessing protected areas of the website. Without these cookies, such functions, including shopping baskets and electronic payment, are not possible.

Our website uses cookies for:

Remembering products that you add to your shopping basket during online purchasing

Remembering information that you fill in on the various pages when paying or ordering so that you don't have to fill in all your details repeatedly

Passing on information from one page to the next, for instance if a long survey is being filled in or if you need to fill in a large number of details for an online order

Storing preferences such as language, location, the number of search results to be displayed etc.

Storing settings for optimal video display, such as buffer size and your screen's resolution details

Reading your browser settings so that we can display our website optimally on your screen

Locating misuse of our website and services, for example by recording several consecutive failed log-in attempts

Loading the website evenly so that it remains accessible

Offering the option of storing log-in details so that you don't have to enter them every time

Making it possible to place a reaction on our website

Cookies that enable us to measure website usage

These cookies gather information about the surfing behaviour of visitors to our websites, such as which pages are visited often and whether visitors receive error messages. By doing this we are able to make the structure, navigation and content of the website as user-friendly as possible for you. We do not link the statistics and other reports to people. We use cookies for:

Keeping track of the number of visitors to our web pages

Keeping track of the length of time that each visitor spends on our web pages

Determining the order in which a visitor visits the various pages on our website

Assessing which parts of our site need to be improved

Optimising the website

Cookies for displaying advertisements

Our website displays advertisements (or video messages) to you, which may use cookies.

By using cookies we can:

keep track of which advertisements you have already been shown so that you are not always shown the same ones

keep track of how many visitors click on the advertisement

keep track of how many orders are placed by way of the advertisement

Even if such cookies are not used, however, you may still be shown advertisements that do not utilise cookies. These advertisements can, for instance, be modified according to the content of the website. You can compare this type of content-related Internet advertisements with advertising on television. If, say, you are watching a cookery programme on TV, you will often see an advertisement about cooking products during the advert breaks while this programme is on.

Cookies for behaviour-related content of a web page

Our aim is to provide visitors to our website with information that is as relevant as possible to them. We therefore endeavour to adapt our site as much as possible to every visitor. We do this not only through the content of our website, but also through the advertisements shown.

To make it possible for these adaptations to be carried out, we try to acquire a picture of your likely interests on the basis of the Nu-Tek websites that you visit in order to develop a segmented profile. Based on these interests, we then adapt the content and the advertisements on our website for various groups of customers. For instance, based upon your surfing behaviour, you may have similar interests to the 'males in the 30-to-45 age range, married with children and interested in football' category. This group will, of course, be shown different advertisements to the 'female, 20-to-30 age range, single and interested in travelling' category.

Third parties that set cookies via our website may also try to find out what your interests are in this way. In this case, the information about your current website visit may be combined with information from previous visits to websites other than ours. Even if such cookies are not used, please note that you will be provided with advertisements on our site; however, these advertisements will not be tailored to your interests.

These cookies make it possible for:

the websites to record your visit and, as a result, to assess your interests

a check to be run to see if you have clicked on an advertisement

information about your surfing behaviour to be passed to other websites

third-party services to be used to show you advertisements

more interesting advertisements to be displayed on the basis of your social media usage

Cookies for sharing the content of our website via social media

The articles, pictures and videos that you look at on our website can be shared and liked via social media by means of buttons. Cookies from the social media parties are used to enable these buttons to function, so that they recognise you when you wish to share an article or video.

These cookies make it possible for:

logged-in users of selected social media to share and like certain content from our website directly

These social media parties may also collect your personal data for their own purposes. Nu-Tek has no influence over how these social media parties make use of your personal data. For more information regarding the cookies set by the social media parties and the possible data that they gather, please refer to the privacy statement(s) made by the social media parties themselves. Below we have listed the privacy statements of the Social Media channels that are used the most by Nu-Tek:
