Cookie Statement

This website, www.madametussauds.com/amsterdam, uses Cookies and Similar Technologies to allow you, the user, to customise your visit to the website.

For more information about how personal data is processed in relation to the use of the website, and how you can exercise your rights or contact Madame Tussauds Amsterdam (“we”, “us”, “our”), please visit our Privacy Policy.

Some Cookies and Similar Technologies can store data that may potentially identify you and thus may have an impact on your privacy. This Cookie Statement aims to inform you about the use of these functions to help you decide about consent in compliance with the EU and national laws.

General Information about Cookies & Similar Technologies

Cookies are small data records that are stored on the end device when users are visiting websites (in the browser) and using apps. These Cookies can then be sent out again by the end device. In and of themselves, cookies are harmless and serve crucial functions for websites. Cookies can also generally be easily viewed and deleted.

Types of Cookies

In general, there are three different ways to classify cookies: how long they endure (duration), where they come from (provenance), and what purpose they serve:

DURATION

Session Cookies – These cookies are temporary and expire once you close your browser (or once your session ends).

Persistent Cookies — This category encompasses all cookies that remain on your hard drive until you erase them, or your browser does, depending on the cookie’s expiration date. All persistent cookies should have an expiration date written into their code, but their duration can vary.

PROVENANCE

First-party cookies — As the name implies, first-party cookies are put on your device directly by the website you are visiting.

Third-party cookies — These are the cookies that are placed on your device, not by the website you are visiting, but by a third party like an advertiser or an analytic system.

PURPOSE

Strictly necessary cookies — These cookies help to make a website usable by enabling basic functions such as page browsing and access to protected areas of the website. The website cannot function properly without these cookies.

Preferences cookies — Also known as “functional cookies,” these cookies allow a website to remember choices you have made in the past, like what language you prefer, what region you live in, or what your username and password are so you can automatically log in.

Statistics cookies — Also known as “performance cookies,” these cookies are used to improve website functions by collecting information about how you use a website, like which pages you visited, and which links you clicked on. None of this information can be used to identify you. It is all aggregated and, therefore, anonymized.

Marketing cookies — These cookies track your online activity to help advertisers deliver more relevant advertising or to limit how many times you see an ad. These cookies can share that information with other organizations or advertisers. These are persistent cookies and almost always of third-party provenance.

Similar Technologies: Web Beacons & Scripts

Website, emails, and mobile applications may contain small, transparent image files or lines of code called Web Beacons and Scripts to enable website/emails/mobile apps owners to understand how you interact with them. This information is used to make websites, newsletters, and mobile apps more user-friendly and personalised.

Third-Party Cookies

When you browse our website, you may receive cookies both from our website (“first party”), and from websites managed by other companies (“third parties”). Given that the installation of cookies and other tracking systems by third parties through services used in this website cannot be technically controlled by us as the Data Controller. You can find the list of our “third parties” suppliers below and we encourage you to read their privacy policies for further information.

This cookie contains a unique randomly generated value that enables the Xandr Platform to distinguish browsers and devices. It is matched against information – such as advertising interest segments and histories of ads shown in the browser or device – provided by clients or other third parties and stored on the Xandr Platform. This information is used by clients to select advertisements for delivery by the Xandr Platform, and to measure the performance of, and attribute payment for, those advertisements. In addition, Xandr uses this cookie to enable clients to use data which does not reveal or use an Internet user’s real-world identity or data they collect outside of the Xandr Platform or acquire from other third parties. This cookie is also sometimes matched to clients’ or other third parties’ cookies so that they can use data they collect outside of the Xandr Platform to serve more relevant advertisements to Internet users. When a user opts out of having the Xandr Platform used to select ads based on online behaviour, the unique value in uuid2 is deleted and replaced with the non-unique value “-1”.

How to Consent to the Use of Cookies
