1. What is a cookie?
Cookies are small data or text files placed locally on your computer or mobile device by websites or applications. These small files can store various types of information, such as your language choice for a specific website, for example, which will allow you, on your next visit, to see this site directly in your preferred language.

The Belgian law of 13 June 2005 on electronic communications contains several provisions relating to cookies and their use on websites.

Bee Cleaning (“We/our/us”) is a company active on the Belgian market and consequently follows Belgian and European legislation in this matter.
