2. What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files that are placed on your computer, smartphone, tablet, or other internet-enabled device when you visit a website. They are widely used by website owners to make their websites work more efficiently, improve user experience, and provide reporting information.

Cookies are created by the web server and sent to your browser, where they are stored. The server can retrieve information from your browser by reading the cookie whenever you visit the site again. This allows the website to recognize your device and remember your preferences and actions over time.

There are several types of cookies based on their origin and duration:

2.1 First-Party vs. Third-Party Cookies

• First-Party Cookies: These are cookies set directly by Marcos when you visit marcoscafe.rest. They are used primarily to improve your experience on our website.
• Third-Party Cookies: These are cookies set by external services or partners (such as Google or Facebook) that appear on our website. These third parties may use cookies to track your online activity across multiple websites.

2.2 Session vs. Persistent Cookies

• Session Cookies: These are temporary cookies that exist only during a single browsing session. They are deleted from your device as soon as you close your browser.
• Persistent Cookies: These cookies remain on your device for a set period of time after you close your browser. They are activated each time you visit the website that created them.

4. Types of Cookies We Use

We categorize the cookies we use into four main types:

4.1 Essential / Strictly Necessary Cookies

These cookies are fundamental to the operation of our website. Without these cookies, certain features of the website cannot be provided. They are usually set in response to actions you take, such as setting your privacy preferences, logging in, or filling out forms. You cannot opt out of these cookies if you wish to use our website, as they are necessary for it to function properly.

Essential cookies help us:

4.2 Analytics / Performance Cookies

These cookies allow us to count visits and traffic sources so we can measure and improve the performance of our website. They help us understand which pages are the most and least popular, how visitors navigate through the website, and whether visitors receive error messages from certain pages.

All information collected by these cookies is aggregated and therefore anonymous. If you do not allow these cookies, we will not know when you have visited our website and will not be able to monitor its performance.

We primarily use Google Analytics for this purpose, which is a web analytics service provided by Google LLC, 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA.

4.3 Functional Cookies

These cookies enable our website to provide enhanced functionality and personalization. They may be set by us or by third-party providers whose services we have added to our pages. Functional cookies allow the website to remember choices you make (such as your language preference or the region you are in) and provide enhanced, more personalized features.

If you do not allow these cookies, some or all of these services may not function properly.

4.4 Advertising / Targeting Cookies

These cookies may be set through our website by our advertising partners. They may be used by those companies to build a profile of your interests and show you relevant advertisements on other websites. They do not directly store personal information, but are based on uniquely identifying your browser and internet device.

If you do not allow these cookies, you will experience less targeted advertising. We use Google Ads and may use similar advertising platforms to reach customers who may be interested in our food offerings.
