Advertising cookies

We use online advertisements to draw attention to our services. We prefer to do this as targeted as possible, to keep costs low and not to show you unnecessary advertisements from us. For this we use: Google Ads, Google Dynamic Remarketing and Retargeting Lists for Search Ads (RLSA), Facebook Custom Audiences (we do not share our customer base with Facebook), Microsoft Bing Ads and DoubleClick (from Google).
With these cookies we can:

Keep track of which advertisements you have already seen. This prevents you from seeing the same advertisements too often.
Keep track of how many visitors click on our advertisements.
Keeping track of how many visitors purchase a service from us after clicking on an advertisement. This allows us to analyze how effective our advertisements are.
Keep track of whether you have already purchased certain services from us. You will then not see any unnecessary advertisements.

We use the personal data (anonymously) to show personalized advertisements via the Google advertising network.

Even if you do not accept cookies, you may still encounter advertisements from us online. Not all our advertisements use cookies. With cookies we can show you advertisements that are relevant to you and therefore personalized.

Google Ads

With Google Ads advertisements we show generic and personalized advertisements about our products and services. We do this in the following way:

We observe demographic data within Google Ads (gender, age, income, device and intentions) to get to know our target group better;
We advertise aimed at people who search within Google for 1 or more search terms that are relevant to us;
We advertise specifically to visitors who have previously viewed our webshop (remarketing);
We advertise specifically on YouTube based on topics or channels;
We advertise specifically on websites that mention one or more relevant topics in their content;
We advertise specifically on websites that we have selected in advance, because we believe that our target group visits these websites.

Bing Ads

We advertise specifically to people who search within Bing for 1 or more search terms that are relevant to us.
