Welcome to Cafe Rio's Cookie Policy. This document describes how eat-caferio.click ("we," "us," or "our") uses cookies and similar tracking technologies on our website. This policy is designed to help you understand what cookies are, how we use them, what choices you have regarding their use, and how they affect your browsing experience when visiting our food ordering and informational platform.

By continuing to browse or use our website, you acknowledge that you have read and understood this Cookie Policy. If you do not agree with our use of cookies, you may disable them through your browser settings or opt-out tools described below, though this may affect your ability to use certain features of our website.

This Cookie Policy is part of our broader Privacy Policy, which governs how we collect, use, and protect your personal information.

2. What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files that are placed on your computer, smartphone, tablet, or other device when you visit a website. They are widely used across the internet to make websites function more efficiently, enhance user experience, and provide website operators with useful information about how visitors interact with their sites.

Cookies are created by a web server and stored in your web browser. Each cookie contains a small amount of data, which can include a unique identifier, the name of the website, and some values. When you return to the same website, your browser sends the stored cookie back to the server, allowing the website to recognize your device and remember information about your previous visits.

Cookies do not typically contain personally identifiable information on their own. However, when combined with other data we may collect about you — such as your account information or browsing behavior — cookies can be associated with personal data. In such cases, they are treated in accordance with our Privacy Policy.

2.1 Types of Cookies by Origin

• First-Party Cookies: These cookies are set directly by eat-caferio.click and are used to improve your experience on our site.
• Third-Party Cookies: These cookies are set by external services and partners (such as Google Analytics, Google Ads, or social media platforms) whose content or features appear on our website.

2.2 Types of Cookies by Duration

• Session Cookies: These are temporary cookies that are stored only during your browsing session. They are deleted automatically when you close your browser.
• Persistent Cookies: These cookies remain on your device for a set period of time or until you manually delete them. They allow the website to recognize you on your next visit.

3. How We Use Cookies

At Cafe Rio (eat-caferio.click), we use cookies for a variety of purposes to enhance the functionality of our website, improve your user experience, and deliver relevant food-related content and promotions. Specifically, we use cookies to:

• Keep you signed in to your account during your visit
• Remember your preferences, such as your location, language settings, and menu choices
• Understand how visitors navigate through our website and which pages are most popular
• Analyze traffic patterns so we can improve our website performance
• Deliver targeted advertising and promotional offers related to Cafe Rio menu items and special deals
• Measure the effectiveness of our marketing campaigns
• Protect the security and integrity of our website

4. Categories of Cookies We Use

We classify the cookies used on eat-caferio.click into four main categories. Below is a detailed explanation of each category:

4.1 Essential / Strictly Necessary Cookies

These cookies are absolutely necessary for the website to function properly. They enable core functionality such as security, network management, and accessibility. Without these cookies, services you have asked for — such as shopping cart functionality or logging into your account — cannot be provided. Because they are strictly necessary, they cannot be disabled through our cookie consent tools, although you may be able to block them through your browser settings (though this will affect website functionality).

Examples include cookies that maintain your session, remember items added to your food order cart, and authenticate your account securely.

4.2 Analytics / Performance Cookies

These cookies collect information about how visitors use our website — for example, which pages are visited most often and whether visitors receive error messages from certain pages. All information collected by these cookies is aggregated and therefore anonymous. We use this data to improve how eat-caferio.click works and to understand the performance of our content.

We use Google Analytics to help analyze website usage. Google Analytics uses cookies to collect information about your use of the site and generates reports for us about website activity and internet usage.

4.3 Functional Cookies

Functional cookies allow our website to remember choices you make (such as your preferred location, language, or the region you are in) and provide enhanced, more personalized features. These cookies may also be used to provide services you have requested, such as watching a video or commenting on a blog post. The information collected by these cookies may be anonymized and they cannot track your browsing activity on other websites.

4.4 Advertising / Targeting Cookies

These cookies are used to deliver advertisements and promotions that are more relevant to you and your interests. They are also used to limit the number of times you see an advertisement and to measure the effectiveness of advertising campaigns. They are usually placed by advertising networks such as Google Ads with the website operator's permission. They remember that you have visited a website and this information is shared with other organizations, such as advertisers. Quite often, targeting or advertising cookies will be linked to site functionality provided by the other organization.
