cookie statement
introduction
Baat accountants &adviseurs ensures the optimal functioning of its website. To ensure that the website functions properly, we use techniques that process personal data, such as cookies.
A cookie is a small text file that is stored on the visitor’s device (electronic device) during the first visit to a website. The purpose of cookies is to collect information about someone, the website or statistics. Some cookies also aim to improve the user experiences of the website.
types of cookies
We distinguish 5 types of cookies:
- For functional purposes
- For analytical purposes
- For advertising purposes
- For identification
- For social media sharing options
For functional purposes
We use this type of cookies to register and remember your preferences as a visitor. This means you do not have to enter your preferences again and again, making the website easier to use. We always place functional cookies. These are necessary for the website to work properly and do not process personal data other than for the purpose for which these personal data are entered.
Non-functional cookies, types 2, 3, 4 and 5 from the list above, process personal data outside your field of view. That is why we always ask your permission before we place these cookies.
- For analytical purposes
With analytical cookies we collect statistics about the use of the website so that we can improve the functionality and effectiveness of the site for the benefit of our users. For example, we measure the popularity of certain pages and click behavior on our website. The external software we use for this is Google Analytics and possibly Hotjar. To comply with GDPR legislation, we do not share privacy-sensitive data with these external parties and we have a processing agreement with them.
- For advertising purposes
We use this type of cookies to help us show relevant advertisements on third-party websites (including via advertising networks of Google, Facebook, LinkedIn and other third parties) to people who may be interested in our products. We also use these cookies to measure the performance of our advertising campaigns. We can also use these cookies to limit the number of times you see an advertisement, so that you do not see the same advertisement over and over again. Finally, this type of cookie is also used to help you opt out of our advertisements.
- For identification
We use this type of cookie, among other things, to identify people after they have interacted with our website. By interaction we mean, for example, completing a contact form or clicking on a hyperlink in an e-mail you receive from us. The data we record during such an interaction is never shared with others (including customers of our company).
We also use these types of cookies to keep track of which website pages you visit. We can deduce your preferences and interests from the information about your website visits. We use this information to recognize potential customers so that we can approach organizations for marketing purposes. For this purpose we collect, among other things, visitor data, IP address and company data. The data we collect is only used internally.
- For social media sharing options
On some web pages you will find buttons to easily share articles and pages on social networks such as Linkedin, Facebook and Twitter. These buttons work using pieces of code (scripts) that come from these social networks themselves. These scripts sometimes also place cookies (we have no influence on this).

You will then no longer see this message and you will have to delete the cookies (if desired) yourself.
