Cookies make the interaction between you and the website faster and easier.
Most websites use cookies in order to improve user experience. This is done by enabling the website to "remember" you either for the duration of your visit (using a "session cookie") or for repeat visits (using a "persistent cookie").
Cookies do different jobs: Remembering your preferences, letting you navigate between pages more efficiently, generally improving your experience of the website, and letting the website discover what kind of information you are looking for.
If a website doesn’t use cookies, it will think you are a new visitor every time you move to a new page on the site. As an example, you will not be able to stay logged in if you move from one page to another without a cookie to "remember" your status.
DSV will occasionally use cookies to enable us to target advertising or marketing messages based on your location and/or browsing habits. We aim to give you better access to relevant information and spare you from information that is irrelevant for you.
Cookies may be set by our website ("first party cookies") or they may be set by other websites who run content on the page you are viewing ("third party cookies").
A cookie is a simple text file that is stored on your computer or mobile device by a website’s server. Only that server will be able to retrieve or read the contents of that cookie.
Each cookie is unique to your web browser and will contain some anonymous information such as a unique identifier and some digits and numbers. It allows our website to remember things like your preferences and what pages you have visited.
It may seem intrusive to have a website storing information on your computer or mobile device, particularly when this information is stored and used by a third party. Although this is generally quite harmless you may not, for example, want to see advertising that has been targeted to your interests.
That is why it is possible to block some or all cookies if you prefer, or even to delete cookies that have already been set. Please be aware that you might lose some functions of our website if you block or delete cookies.
All Danish websites are obligated by law to inform users about which browser cookies are left or accessed on the user’s equipment. The information must be in agreement with the "Executive Order on Information and Consent Required in Case of Storing or Accessing Information in End-User Terminal Equipment”.
The executive order requires that the website obtain consent from the user when storing browser cookies on the user’s IT equipment. You have given this consent by using our website.
If you have accepted browser cookies from DSV websites it is always possible to remove them again in the settings for your Internet browser.
For information about how we process your personal data, please see our Privacy Policy.
Do not hesitate to contact DSV at info@dsv.com if you have any further questions about browser cookies on dsv.com
If you don’t want to receive cookies, you can modify your browser so that it notifies you when cookies are sent to it or you can refuse cookies altogether. You can also delete cookies that have already been set.
If you wish to restrict or block web browser cookies, which are set on your device, then you can do this through your browser settings; the Help function within your browser should tell you how. Alternatively, you may wish to visit www.aboutcookies.org , which contains comprehensive information on how to do this on a wide variety of desktop browsers.
First party cookies are set by the website, you are visiting and they can only be read by that site.
Third party cookies are set by a different organisation to the owner of the website you are visiting. For example, dsv.com uses Google Analytics who will set their own cookie to perform this service. The website you are visiting may also contain content embedded from, for example YouTube or Flickr, and these sites may set their own cookies.
By using share buttons on a website, a cookie may be set by the service you have chosen to share content through. DSV does not control the dissemination of these cookies. You should check the relevant third party website for more information about these.
Session Cookies are stored only temporarily during a browsing session and are deleted from the user’s device when the browser is closed.
This type of cookie is saved on your computer for a fixed period (usually a year or longer) and is not deleted when the browser is closed. Persistent cookies are used where we need to know who you are for more than one browsing session. For example, we use this type of cookie to store your preferences, so that they are remembered for the next visit.
Many websites use Adobe Flash Player to deliver video and game content to their users. Adobe utilise their own cookies, which are not manageable through your browser settings but are used by the Flash Player for similar purposes, such as storing preferences or
tracking users.
Flash Cookies work in a different way to web browser. Rather than having individual cookies for particular jobs, a website is restricted to storing all data in one cookie. You can control how much data can be stored in that cookie but you
cannot choose what type of information is allowed to be stored. Some web browser manufacturers are developing solutions to allow you to control these through your browser, but at the present time, if you wish to restrict or block Flash Cookies, then you must
do this on the Adobe website.
Please be aware that restricting the use of Flash Cookies may affect the features available to you, for example, the utility bar on all article pages.
