Cookie Policy
This policy explains which cookies and similar techniques we use on www.ark.be, what they are for and how you stay in control of them.
ARK Management BV — version of 30 July 2026
01
Who places these cookies?
This website, www.ark.be, is operated by ARK Management BV, Kleemstraat 29, 9250 Waasmunster, company number 0461.013.878. Questions about this cookie policy: ben@ark.be or +32 475 74 54 26
02
What are cookies?
Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website and read again on a later visit. They remember, for example, your language preference or your cookie settings, or they record how you use the website.
Besides cookies there are comparable techniques with the same effect: local storage, session storage, pixels, tracking pixels and third-party scripts. Wherever this policy refers to "cookies", those techniques are also meant.
03
When do we ask for your consent?
The legal basis is Article 129 of the Act of 13 June 2005 on electronic communications, together with the GDPR.
Strictly necessary cookies may be placed without consent. These are cookies without which the website cannot function, or without which a service you expressly requested cannot be delivered: remembering your cookie choice, protecting forms against abuse, and distributing server load.
All other cookies — functional, analytical and marketing cookies — are only placed after you have given your consent through our cookie banner. Until then they are not activated. Refusing is just as easy as accepting in the banner, and refusing non-essential cookies does not limit your access to the website.

Still to be completed
These tables must list the cookies the site actually places. Have a cookie scan carried out on www.ark.be and fill in the results. If the site places no cookie at all in a given category, delete that entire table rather than leaving it empty. For embedded third-party content — a YouTube or Vimeo video, a Google Maps map, a LinkedIn or Instagram feed, a typeface loaded directly from Google Fonts — that party places its own cookies or connections and therefore belongs in this list.
05
Third-party cookies
Some cookies are placed by third parties whose content or services we use on our website. We have no control over what those parties do with the data collected in this way. For more information we refer to their own privacy and cookie policies.
06
Changing or withdrawing your choice
You can change or withdraw your consent at any time through the "Cookie preferences" link at the bottom of every page of this website. Withdrawing your consent applies for the future and does not affect the lawfulness of processing carried out beforehand.
You can also manage, block and delete cookies through your browser settings. The procedure differs per browser; you will find it under the help function or the privacy settings of Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Edge or Brave. Please note: blocking all cookies entirely may disrupt the functioning of this and other websites.
07
What happens to the data?
The personal data collected through cookies is processed as described in our privacy policy. There you will also find which rights you can exercise and how to do so, and how to lodge a complaint with the Data Protection Authority.
08
Changes
We update this cookie policy whenever the cookies on our website or the applicable legislation change. The current version is always available at www.ark.be/cookie-policy, with the date of the latest amendment at the top. Review this policy again every time you add a new tool, tracker or embedded service to the website.
