Cookie Policy
Last updated: October 1, 2026
Cookies and similar storage on your device. Until you accept analytics in the banner, nothing beyond what keeps you signed in is stored on your device: visits are counted without any cookie or storage. You can change your mind here at any time.

We use no advertising cookies and no third-party tracking. Private messaging, video calls and livestreams (Stream) use your session token, not cookies. Embedded images and videos are served from our own domain.
Your choice
Analytics that store an identifier on your device are off by default. You can accept or reject them in the banner shown on your first visit, and change your choice at any time with the button below; the banner then appears again. Rejecting has no effect on any feature. Without your consent, visits are only counted the storage-free way described in the table; you can object to that as well (see your rights in the Privacy Policy). You can also block or delete cookies in your browser settings; blocking the strictly necessary ones will sign you out.
Legal basis
Storing or reading information on your device requires your prior consent unless it is strictly necessary for a service you asked for (Article 129 of the Belgian Electronic Communications Act, implementing Article 5(3) of the ePrivacy Directive). Counting visits without storing or reading anything on your device falls outside that rule; that processing rests on our legitimate interest in knowing whether and how the site is used (Article 6(1)(f) GDPR). The personal data that analytics produce are processed as described in the Privacy Policy.
