Cookie Policy of Blue Code Garden B.V.
Blue Code Garden B.V. (trading as “Code Garden”, “we”, “us”, “our”) operates the website https://www.codegarden.nl (the “Website”). This Cookie Policy explains how we use cookies and similar technologies to recognise, collect, and store information when you visit our Website. By using our Website you consent to the use of cookies in accordance with this policy.
What are cookies?
Cookies are small text files that are placed on your computer or device by websites that you visit. They are widely used to make websites work, or work more efficiently, as well as to provide information to the owners of the site. Cookies can be “persistent” or “session” cookies. Persistent cookies remain on your computer when you have gone offline, while session cookies are deleted as soon as you close your web browser.
We also use similar technologies such as local storage, which stores small amounts of information directly in your browser rather than as a cookie. This policy covers both.
How Code Garden uses cookies
We use cookies and similar technologies for the following purposes:
- Strictly necessary — remembering your cookie consent choice and your light/dark theme preference so the site works correctly on every visit.
- Analytics — understanding how visitors use our Website (which pages are popular, how people arrive, what works well) so we can improve content and structure. Analytics are only loaded after you accept.
We do not use cookies for advertising, retargeting, or to build marketing profiles about you.
