Version 1.0
Date: 14 July 2026

1 Who is the data controller?

This Cookie Policy relates to all cookies and similar technologies placed and used on this website by BV NightSkyOptics, with registered office at Mariakerksesteenweg 114/C, 9031 Gent, with company number BE1035.688.497, which is the data controller of this website.

2 What are cookies?

Cookies are small data or text files stored by the browser on your device. This policy also applies in full to similar technologies such as pixels, plug-ins and scripts. Cookies can serve different purposes. For example, there are technical cookies that retain preferences on a website, such as language settings or the shopping cart. Cookies can be used to verify your login and can store information about the user, such as your browsing history. Some cookies are only retained for a specific session, while others are stored on your device for a fixed period.

Cookies can be placed by the server of the website you visit or by a partner with which this website cooperates. The server of the website can only read the cookies it has placed itself. It has no access to other information on your computer or mobile device.

Cookies can be placed both by the data controller itself (“first-party cookies”) and by a third party acting as a service provider for the data controller (“third-party cookies”).

We can divide cookies into the following categories:

Strictly necessary technical cookies

These cookies are essential in order to be able to visit the website and use certain parts of it. These cookies allow you, for example, to navigate between the different parts of the website or to fill in forms, or they ensure the security of the website. No consent is requested for placing these cookies.

Strictly necessary functional cookies
Functional cookies are cookies that make the website more user-friendly and more pleasant for the visitor and ensure that you have a better browsing experience. These cookies can retain your login details, remember a language choice or keep track of a shopping cart. No consent is requested for placing these cookies.

Analytical cookies
These cookies collect information about how the user uses the website, such as which pages are visited and which links are clicked. Their sole purpose is to improve the functionality of the website and to provide statistics regarding the number of visitors to a particular page. These cookies will only be placed if the user has given express consent for this.

Advertising and/or social media cookies
These cookies track your online activity to help advertisers display more relevant advertisements or to limit how often you see an advertisement. These cookies have a lifespan of a maximum of 24 months and are placed by third parties.
These cookies are only placed after the user has given us express consent.
