Use of cookies
The Benders Hem portal uses cookies. A cookie is a text file (.txt) that a web server places on your hard disk. Cookies cannot be used to execute programs or infect your computer with a virus. Cookies are unique to you and can only be read by the domain or domains that placed them.
One of the primary functions of a cookie is to save time for the user. A cookie tells the web server that you have returned to a certain page. For example, if you alter your settings for a Benders Hem page or register with Benders Hem, a cookie helps Benders Hem to remember this information. When you return to the Benders Hem website, the information can be read by the web server and the changed settings (adapted functions) can be applied/provided immediately.
You can accept or prohibit cookies. Most web browsers accept cookies automatically. However, you can set your web browser to refuse cookies. If you choose not to use cookies, you may not be able to use all the functions in Benders Hem.
Security and personal information
Benders Hem secures your personal information against unauthorised access and/or use. When personal information (e.g. credit card number) is sent from Benders Hem to other websites, the Secure Socket Layer (SSL) protocol is used to provide encryption.
