What are cookies?
Atomic uses functional, analytical and tracking cookies. The cookie is an addition to the HTTP specification. The HyperText Transfer Protocol is used by everyone who visits a website: it controls the communication between a web server and a browser. However, it is not designed to view consecutive page visits as a whole. This means that it is not simply possible to retrieve data or settings during a follow-up visit.
To make this possible, the cookie and the set-cookie headers for HTTP were introduced in 1997. This specification was last updated in April 2011 and is currently known as RFC 6265 HTTP State Management Mechanism.
A cookie is a small text file that is stored in the browser of your device, such as a computer, tablet or smartphone, when you first visit this website.
First of all, this website uses cookies with a purely technical functionality. These cookies ensure that the website works correctly and, for example, remember your preference settings so that we can optimize the website.
In addition, this website uses cookies that track your surfing behavior, so that we can offer you customized content and advertisements.
Cookies are also placed via this website by third parties, for example by social media companies. If you do not accept cookies, we will only use cookies that are necessary for our website to function properly. Consider, for example, the operation of our contact form.
Types of cookies
1 Functional cookies
These are cookies that are necessary for a website to function properly or that make it easier for you to use the website. For example, consider saving your language preference or your cookie preferences after you have refused or accepted the cookie notification, so that we do not have to ask the same question every time. We also use functional cookies to read your browser settings in order to display this website optimally on your screen.
2 Analytical cookies
To determine which parts of the website are most interesting for our visitors, we try to continuously measure, using third-party software, how many visitors come to our website and what is viewed most often. We use cookies for this. Statistics are made of the information we collect in this way. These statistics give us insight into how often our web page is visited, where exactly visitors spend the most time, and so on. This enables us to make the structure, navigation and content of the website as user-friendly as possible for you. We do not trace the statistics and other reports to persons.
We use cookies to keep track of the number of visitors to our web pages, to track the length of time each visitor spends on our web pages, to determine the order in which a visitor visits the different pages of our website, to assess which parts of our site need adjustment, optimizing the website.
3 Tracking cookies

The tracking cookies on this website are so-called 'third party cookies'. This means that those cookies are not placed by us but by another party.

Other / Unforeseen cookies
Due to the way the internet and websites work, we do not always have insight into the cookies that are placed by third parties via our website. This is especially the case if our web pages contain so-called embedded elements; these are texts, documents, images or videos that are stored with another party, but that are shown on, in or via our website. The embedded elements can be placed by us. If you encounter cookies on this website that fall into this category and that we have not mentioned above, please let us know. Or contact the third party directly and ask which cookies they place, the reason for this, what the lifespan of the cookie is and how they have guaranteed your privacy.
