1. Cookies

Cookies are small data files or text files placed on your local computer by websites and applications. These cookies can serve various purposes: there are technical cookies (for example, to retain language settings), session cookies (temporary cookies that disappear after a session), and tracking cookies (cookies that track and store your internet behavior to offer you a more optimal user experience).

The Belgian law concerning electronic communications of June 13, 2005, includes certain provisions regarding cookies and their use on websites. This law is a transposition of the European directive on privacy and electronic communications, which means that cookie legislation can be implemented differently in other European Union states.

Contisteel is established in Belgium and therefore follows Belgian cookie legislation.

2. Purpose and Utility of Cookies

Cookies help Contisteel optimize your website visit, remember technical choices (such as language preference, newsletter subscriptions, etc.), and present you with more relevant services and offers.

If you wish to visit the Contisteel website, it is recommended to have technical settings enabled for cookies. Without enabled cookies, Contisteel cannot guarantee a seamless website visit. If you prefer not to use cookies, you, as a visitor, are free to disable them.

We use cookies to enhance your visit to our website. The cookies we use are safe. The information we collect through cookies helps us identify potential errors or show you specific services that we believe may be of interest to you.
