Cookies help to make the website work properly and securely. Cookies also enable us to better inform you, e.g. about relevant products and services. Did you know that there are different types of cookies? And do you know what they are used for? Allow us to explain. You can also read more about other technologies, such as Local Storage, on this page.
What are cookies?
Cookies are small text files that are collected by your browser and temporarily stored on your computer (more precisely, in your browser directory). They can neither access the data on your hard drive nor cause any damage there. A cookie is primarily used to store information about a user during or after their visit within a website. This information is used, for example, to provide us, as the operator of the website, with statistical information about the use of the website, or to ensure the security of the website, for example by recognising requests from bots.
Thanks to cookies, you don't have to enter the same information every time you visit the website, for example. You may refuse the use of cookies by selecting the appropriate settings in your browser, however please note that if you do this you may not be able to use all features of this website.
Why does Rabobank place cookies?
Only absolutely necessary (often also: essential or technically necessary) cookies and, where applicable, local storage elements are currently used on our website. Without these, the operation, the guarantee of security and the use of the functionalities of the website are not possible. If you deactivate necessary cookies, the functionality of the website will therefore be impaired.

We use these cookies to distribute traffic across Rabobank's various computer systems and there is no collection of personal data in the process.

We use this cookie to store the choice of which cookie preference you want to apply. This cookie setting is stored at profile level without personal data collection. Resetting the retention period prevents you from seeing the cookie banner very frequently.

This cookie is used by our tag management system Tealium. This enables us to use functionalities from partners, such as visitor statistics and feedback functionalities. Your web address is automatically made unrecognizable. No traceable personal data is therefore stored.
A cookie checker may also show TIQCDN. That is not a cookie. TIQCDN is Tealium's computer that calls the tag manager.

Local storage
In addition to cookies, there are also so-called local storage elements (also called "local data" and "local memory"). In this case, data is stored locally in the cache of your browser, which continues to exist and can be read even after you close the browser window or exit the programme - as long as you do not delete the cache. Third parties cannot access the data stored in the local storage. They are not passed on to third parties and are not used for advertising purposes.
