What is a cookie?

Cookies are small data or text files placed locally on your computer or mobile device by websites or applications. These small files may store various types of information, such as your choice of language for a particular website, which will allow you to immediately view that site in your preferred language on your next visit.

The Belgian Electronic Communications Law of 13 June 2005 contains some provisions on cookies and their use on websites.

Professional Education BVBA ("we/our/ours") is a company operating in the Belgian market and therefore follows Belgian and European legislation in this respect.
