Cookies

Technical storage only, not a single tracker.

This site uses no trackers

There is no Google Analytics here, no advertising pixel, no social button that follows you. No ad network receives your visits. The banner you may have seen on arrival only records your answer — it triggers no trackers, because there are none.

Strictly necessary storage

All are technical: none is used to track you or measure audience, and none is shared with a third party.

  • NEXT_LOCALE — a cookie that remembers the site language (French, Dutch or English) you picked or your browser asked for. It holds only that language code.
  • bb_session — a session cookie, set only if you sign in: visitor account (tickets, favourites), exhibitor space or organiser space. It identifies your session, is readable only by the server (httpOnly), and expires after thirty days, or as soon as you sign out. Without it, signing in is impossible.
  • bb_edit, bb_view, bb_org — technical cookies reserved for organiser accounts (site editing mode, “organiser view” preview). A visitor never receives them.
  • bb-cookie-choice — a value kept in your browser’s local storage, to remember that you answered the banner. It never leaves your device and is never sent to the server.
  • bb.favorites.v1 — your favourite exhibitors and activities, kept in your browser’s local storage while you are not signed in. Nothing is sent to the server; if you sign in, they move to your account.
  • bb-stand-simulation — for prospective exhibitors: the latest stand simulation, kept in the browser’s local storage to prefill the stand request. It leaves the device only if the request is sent.

Content hosted elsewhere

The mood film on the home page is streamed by Vimeo in no-tracking mode (“dnt”): Vimeo sets no cookies, but your browser contacts it as soon as the home page opens, so your IP address is passed on.

The aftermovie is also hosted on Vimeo, but its player loads only when you press play: until you do, Vimeo receives no request for that film. Ticketing is run by an external provider, on its own site, under its own policy.

Changing your answer

Clear this site’s local storage and cookies from your browser settings: the banner will reappear on your next visit. You can also refuse all storage; the site keeps working, only signing in and remembering your favourites and language become impossible.
