1. Cookies

 

Cookies are small data or text files that websites and applications place on your local computer. These cookies can serve different purposes: there are technical cookies (e.g., to keep track of language settings), session cookies (temporary cookies that expire after a session), and tracking cookies (cookies that track and log your behavior on the internet to offer you an optimized user experience).

 

The Belgian law on electronic communications of June 13, 2005, includes several provisions regarding cookies and their use on websites. This law is a transposition of the European Directive on online privacy, meaning cookie legislation may be implemented differently in other European member states.

 

SYGMA DIAMONDS is based in Belgium and thus follows Belgian cookie legislation.
