Pixels
We use pixels on our website which allow us and Third Party Providers to offer you a more personalised and engaged web experience, e.g. by offering you advertisements on your social media channels that are more relevant to you or by allowing you to share your experiences on our website via social media.
We use the following pixels:
- Meta pixels
- Meta (Facebook, Instagram and Messenger) pixels are small pieces of software and are nearly invisible pixel-sized “dots” on our website which create a link between your visit to our website and Meta. When the pixel loads, Meta places a so-called “fr”-cookie on your computer, which helps Meta to provide you with more personalised advertisements, but also to measure and improve advertisements. This cookie has a lifespan of 90 days. More information on Meta cookies can be found here: https://www.facebook.com/policies/cookies/. Please note that when the “fr”-cookie is placed, Facebook is able to follow your surfing behaviour across other websites which have implemented a Meta pixel or Meta social plug-in.
