Version: April 2026
This Cookie Policy explains how Cross-Border Magazine, a publication of Salesupply B.V. ("Cross-Border Magazine", "we", "us" or "our"), uses cookies and similar technologies on the website www.cross-border-magazine.com (the "Website").
It should be read together with our Privacy Policy, which describes how we process the personal data collected through these technologies, and forms part of the information we provide under Article 5(3) of the ePrivacy Directive and Articles 13-14 of the GDPR.
By using the Website, you can choose which categories of cookies we are allowed to place on your device through the cookie banner that appears on your first visit. You can withdraw or change your choice at any time, as explained in section 6 below.
Cookies are small text files that are placed on your device (computer, tablet or smartphone) when you visit a website. They allow the website to recognise your device, remember your preferences, and collect information about how you use the site. Similar technologies include pixel tags, web beacons, local storage and software development kits ("SDKs"); for the sake of simplicity, we refer to all of these as "cookies" in this policy.
Cookies can be classified by:
We use the following categories of cookies on the Website:
| Category | What it does | Legal basis & consent |
| Strictly necessary | Required for the Website to function: load-balancing, basic security, remembering your cookie choices, ensuring forms work. Without these cookies, parts of the Website will not work. | No consent required (Art. 5(3) ePrivacy Directive). Always active. |
| Functional | Remember choices you make on the Website (such as language preference) and enable enhanced features. They do not track you across sites. | Consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR + Art. 5(3) ePrivacy). |
| Analytics | Help us understand how visitors use the Website (most-visited pages, time on page, traffic sources, errors) so we can improve content and performance. We use Google Analytics for this purpose, with IP truncation enabled where supported. | Consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR + Art. 5(3) ePrivacy). Active only after you accept the analytics category. |
| Marketing | Used to measure the effectiveness of our campaigns and, where applicable, to show you content that is relevant to your interests on third-party platforms. We currently use the LinkedIn Insight Tag for campaign measurement and audience analysis. | Consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR + Art. 5(3) ePrivacy). Active only after you accept the marketing category. |
| Embedded content | We embed videos from third-party platforms such as YouTube and Vimeo. When you play an embedded video, the relevant platform may set its own cookies and process data according to its own policy. | Consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR + Art. 5(3) ePrivacy). Embeds are blocked or replaced by a placeholder until you accept this category. |
Below is a description of the main third-party tools that may set cookies through the Website, the purpose for which we use them, and where you can find more information. The full list of cookies (with names, durations and providers) is available in the cookie settings panel on the Website.

We may add or remove tools from time to time. The cookie banner and the cookie settings panel always reflect the current list of cookies in use, including their names, providers, purposes and retention periods.
Under Article 5(3) of the ePrivacy Directive (as implemented in Article 11.7a of the Dutch Telecommunications Act) and the GDPR, we may only place strictly necessary cookies without consent. For all other cookies, we ask for your specific, freely given, informed and unambiguous consent through our cookie banner before they are placed.
Our cookie banner offers an "Accept all", "Reject all" and "Manage settings" option with equal prominence and on the same level. Refusing or withdrawing consent is as easy as giving it. Until you make a choice, only strictly necessary cookies are placed.
We rely on Article 6(1)(a) GDPR (consent) for the processing of personal data carried out via non-essential cookies. For strictly necessary cookies and the operational logs needed to keep the Website secure and functional, we rely on Article 6(1)(f) GDPR (legitimate interest) and, where applicable, Article 6(1)(c) GDPR (legal obligation).
You can manage your cookie preferences in three ways:
In addition to cookies, you can use the "Do Not Track" or "Global Privacy Control" signals supported by some browsers; we will, where reasonably possible, treat such signals as a refusal of non-essential cookies.
The retention period of each cookie depends on its type and purpose:
The exact retention period for each individual cookie is shown in the cookie settings panel on the Website.
Some of the cookie providers listed above are established outside the European Economic Area (EEA), in particular in the United States. Where we transfer personal data to such recipients, we rely on the safeguards described in our Privacy Policy, including European Commission adequacy decisions (such as the EU-US Data Privacy Framework, where applicable), Standard Contractual Clauses, and supplementary technical and organisational measures based on a transfer impact assessment.
The Website is not directed at children under the age of 16 and we do not knowingly use cookies to profile children. If you become aware that a child has provided us with personal data via the Website, please contact us so we can delete it.
We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time, for example when we add, remove or change the tools we use, or when applicable law changes. The current version is always available on the Website with an updated version date at the top. If we make material changes (for example, adding a new category of marketing cookies), we will request your consent again through the cookie banner.
