This website uses different cookies for different purposes. Below an overview of which cookies are placed and why.

Keep in mind that if you refuse (certain) cookies, you may not be able to use the functionalities of this website or make full use of it. Below is an overview of the types of cookies we place and the associated purposes.

1. Functional cookies, to be able to offer storiesofpurpose.thehague.com and to make it work and to remember your preferences.
2. Google Analytics cookies, to gain insight into how our visitors use (parts of) storiesofpurpose.thehague.com. Consider visitor numbers, popular pages, and topics. In this way, The Hague & Partners can better tailor communication to the needs of the website visitors. The Hague & Partners cannot see who (which PC) visits its website. As a service provider, Google can, but cannot relate this to privacy-sensitive information. They may also not use this information for other purposes and not transfer it to third parties without a court order.
3. Social media cookies are required for liking messages, sharing news articles, and updating your status on Facebook. If you are logged in to Facebook while visiting our website, more cookies will be placed than if you are not. In both cases, the information is kept to a limited extent (90 days) and is only used to improve products and not to sell to or share with advertisers without your permission. Sharing information on Facebook is only possible if you give your explicit permission.
4. The advertising networks that we work with place "tracking cookies" on your computer. These cookies are used to keep track of which pages you visit in order to build up a profile of your online surfing behaviour. This profile is not linked to your name, address, e-mail address, and the like, but only to match advertisements to your surfing behaviour. In addition, these cookies are used to limit the frequency with which an advertisement is shown to you.
