Cookie Policy
ndmedhealth wants to set cookies on your computer to help us improve your experience on our websites.
The new EU legislation requires us to inform you about how we use cookies. Through this text, we explain how we use cookies.
We believe it is important to protect your privacy and to be open about how we use your data. This notice is to keep you informed and to help you enjoy our websites.
What are cookies?
A cookie is simply a text file containing pieces of data, collected when you visit a website. It is designed to help websites identify past user activity. This can include tracking whether you have clicked on specific links or pages, whether you have logged into your profile, or whether you have read certain pages over a period of several months or even years.
There are different types of cookies and without them, websites would not be able to function in the way you are used to using them.
The ndmedhealth websites use special cookies to provide you with the best possible experience and only those cookies that we consider necessary and useful are used.
According to the new regulations, we explain what types of cookies are used on this website, so that you can decide if you are satisfied, if you want to delete existing cookies, or even disable the use of cookies when viewing our websites.
What types of cookies are used on the ndmedhealth website?
Strictly necessary cookies
These are essential cookies that allow you to navigate our website and use its features. These cookies do not collect information about you that could be used for advertising or to record your activity on the internet.
Performance cookies
These collect information about how you use a website, for example, which pages are viewed most often and whether you encounter error messages. They do not collect information that can identify you — all data is anonymous. Performance cookies are used only to improve how the website functions.
Functionality cookies
These record the choices you make (such as your preferred language) and provide you with personalised usage features. They can record changes you have made on the website. The information they collect may be made anonymous. They relate strictly to our websites and cannot track other websites you visit.
Targeting cookies
These provide you with advertisements or messages relevant to your interests. Sometimes targeting cookies are linked to other websites, such as Facebook.
The four categories of cookies are classified as either temporary (“session cookies”) or longer-term (“permanent cookies”).
“Session” cookies record your actions within a single browsing session. This “session” begins when the page is opened and ends when it is closed — at which point the cookies are deleted permanently.
“Permanent” cookies are those that remain on your phone or computer for a certain period of time. They are automatically activated when you visit a particular website again.
Another classification of cookies is based on their source: “first-party” cookies or “third-party” cookies. “First-party” cookies are created by the ndmedhealth website you are visiting, while “third-party” cookies are created by a site other than the one being visited. The ndmedhealth website allows third-party cookies only from sites approved by the company.
