Wescap Cookie Policy

Last updated: 14 October 2026 

At Wescap, we believe it is important that you are able to use our website comfortably 
and securely. That is why we use cookies and similar technologies. In this cookie policy, 
we explain what cookies are, which cookies we use and how you can manage your 
preferences. 

This cookie policy applies to www.wescap.eu. The website is managed by Wescap B.V., 
Veldkampweg 19, 7731 HL Ommen (Chamber of Commerce no. 08072582). 

What are cookies? 
Cookies are small text files that are stored on your computer, tablet or smartphone 
when you visit a website. They help the website to function properly, remember user 
preferences and provide insight into how the website is used. 
In addition to cookies, there are similar technologies, such as pixels, scripts and local 
storage in your browser. Where we refer to cookies in this statement, we also mean 
these technologies. 

Which cookies does Wescap use? 
We use three types of cookies: functional, analytical and marketing cookies. You can 
read below what we use each type for. A full overview of each cookie can be found 
further on in this statement. 

Functional cookies 
These cookies are essential for the website to function properly. For example, they 
ensure that certain settings are remembered, such as your cookie preferences, and that 
the website remains secure and user-friendly. No consent is required for the placement 
of strictly necessary cookies. 

Analytical cookies 
Analytical cookies enable us to gain an insight into how visitors use our website. This 
includes the number of visitors, the most frequently visited pages and the website’s 
performance. This information helps us to continue improving our website. 

We are permitted to set analytical cookies that have little impact on your privacy without 
your consent. This applies only if we anonymise IP addresses, do not share the data with
other parties for their own purposes, and do not build up profi les of visitors. We will only 
set analytical cookies that do not meet these conditions – such as a standard 
installation of Google Analytics – after you have given your consent. 

Marketing cookies 
Marketing cookies are used to make adverts more relevant and to measure the 
e]ectiveness of campaigns. These cookies may collect information about your visits to 
our website and other websites. This enables the parties involved to gain an insight into 
your browsing behaviour. 

We only place marketing cookies once you have given your consent. 


Third-party cookies 
Our website uses services provided by third parties, for example for website analytics, 
advertising and embedded content. These third parties may set cookies via our website. 
You can see which parties these are in the list below. 

Where these cookies are not strictly necessary, they will only be set once you have given 
your consent. Third parties also have their own privacy and cookie policies. We 
recommend that you read these as well.

Transfer outside the European Union 
Some of the parties listed in the overview, such as Google, Meta and LinkedIn, may 
process data outside the European Economic Area, for example in the United States. 
This only takes place with appropriate safeguards, such as the EU-US Data Privacy 
Framework or the European Commission’s standard contractual clauses. 

Accepting, refusing or changing cookies 
When you fi rst visit our website, you can use the cookie notifi cation to specify which 
cookies you wish to allow. You can accept or refuse non-essential cookies. Refusing 
them is just as easy as accepting them, and the website will remain fully functional. 
You can delete or block cookies via your web browser’s settings. Please bear in mind 
that this may cause certain parts of the website to function less e]ectively. 

How long do we keep cookies? 
The retention period varies per cookie and is specifi ed for each cookie in the overview 
above. Some cookies are automatically deleted as soon as you close your browser. 
Other cookies remain stored for longer, for example to remember your preferences. 
We do not keep cookies for longer than is necessary for the purpose for which they are 
used. 

Protection of personal data 
Where personal data is processed via cookies, Wescap B.V. is responsible for this. We 
process this data in accordance with applicable data protection legislation, including 
the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). For analytical cookies that require 
consent and for marketing cookies, your consent forms the legal basis. For functional 
cookies and privacy-friendly analytical cookies, the legal basis is our legitimate interest 
in ensuring a properly functioning and secure website. 

You have the right to access, rectify or have your personal data erased. You may also 
object to its use. To do so, please contact us using the details below. If you are not 
satisfi ed with how we handle your data, you may lodge a complaint with the Dutch Data 
Protection Authority.

our privacy statement at www.wescap.eu/privacy-policy.
