By accessing and using our english-language website and e-commerce platform, you explicitly consent to our use of cookies and similar tracking technologies as described in this policy, which outlines how and why we collect certain information from you to enhance functionality, performance, and personalization.
AVDW BV, having its office at Van Putlei 10, 2018 Antwerpen and registered with the register of legal entities (Antwerp, division Antwerp) under the number 0764.636.647, is the data controller for cookies placed or read on [www.avdw.be]. For questions about cookies, you may contact us via info@avdw.be.
We utilize cookies for a variety of deliberate and lawful purposes:
A. Essential Cookies: necessary to facilitate core webshop functionality—such as session management, login security, and shopping cart operations—that are indispensable for service delivery;
B. Analytical Cookies: employed to collect anonymized or pseudonymized statistics about site usage and performance (e.g. visitor counts, bounce rates, device types, and navigation patterns), enabling us to identify trends and enhance the browsing experience;
C. Functional Cookies: used to remember user preferences such as language selection, currency and layout options, thereby personalizing and optimizing your site interactions;
D. Marketing & Tracking Cookies: deployed to deliver relevant advertisements through external networks (e.g. Google Ads, Meta Pixel), facilitate retargeting, measure campaign effectiveness, and tailor the advertising experience in line with explicit consent given by the user.
In line with Belgian legislation and GDPR standards, any cookie that is not strictly necessary for the operation of the site requires your explicit and freely given consent via a dedicated consent mechanism. Consent cannot be assumed from general website use, clicking on a link, or other user actions, but must be provided through a clear and deliberate act—such as ticking a dedicated checkbox or clicking “accept” for each cookie category. You can withdraw consent at any time just as easily as you may have given it, and without affecting the validity of prior processing.
If we or our service providers use external tools, for example but not limited to Google Analytics, Meta Platforms, or third-party ad networks, these may install cookies or pixels on your device. Such third parties process data according to their own privacy and cookie policies, which we explicitly disclose in this document for full transparency.
On your initial site visit, you will be presented with clear options: to accept all cookies, reject non essential cookies, or configure preferences by category. At any time afterwards, a prominent link (e.g. “Cookie Settings”) or your browser options allows you to manage or withdraw consent. Please note that disabling certain cookies may impair key functionalities, including checkout and personalized settings.
Cookies are strictly retained only for the period necessary to fulfill their stated purpose. Essential session cookies are deleted at the end of each browsing session. Other cookies, such as analytical or marketing cookies, expire within a time frame aligned with their purposes and in accordance with applicable regulations
