1. Introduction
Welcome to Cabana Taco. We are committed to being transparent about how we collect and use data related to your browsing experience on our website, food-cabanataco.rest. This Cookie Policy explains what cookies are, the types of cookies we use, how we use them, and how you can manage your cookie preferences.
This policy applies to all pages and services available through our website and should be read in conjunction with our Privacy Policy and Terms of Service. By accessing and using our website, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agree to the practices described in this Cookie Policy.
We may update this Cookie Policy periodically to reflect changes in our practices or for other operational, legal, or regulatory reasons. We encourage you to review this page regularly to stay informed about our use of cookies.
2. What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files that are placed on your computer, smartphone, tablet, or other internet-connected device when you visit a website. They are widely used by website operators to make websites work more efficiently, to provide a better and more personalized browsing experience, and to provide reporting information.
Cookies are typically stored in your browser's designated file directory. They do not contain any personally identifiable information on their own, but when combined with other data, they can help identify you as a user. The information stored in cookies is sent back to the originating website on each subsequent visit, or to another website that recognizes that cookie.
2.1 How Do Cookies Work?
When you visit food-cabanataco.rest for the first time, our server sends a cookie to your browser, which stores it on your device. On your next visit, your browser sends the cookie back to our server, allowing us to recognize your device and recall your preferences or previous actions. This process enables us to provide a more seamless and personalized experience each time you visit.
Cookies can be set by the website you are visiting (known as "first-party cookies") or by third-party services that provide features or content on that website (known as "third-party cookies"). Cabana Taco uses both first-party and third-party cookies to enhance your experience on our website.
2.2 Types of Cookies by Duration
- Session Cookies: These are temporary cookies that are erased when you close your browser. They do not collect information from your device and expire at the end of your browser session.
- Persistent Cookies: These cookies remain on your device for a set period or until you delete them. They are activated each time you visit the website that created the cookie.
3. Types of Cookies We Use
Cabana Taco uses the following categories of cookies on our website:
3.1 Essential / Strictly Necessary Cookies
These cookies are fundamental to the operation of our website. They enable core functionality such as page navigation, access to secure areas of the website, and basic website operations. Without these cookies, certain features of our website cannot be provided, and the website cannot function properly. These cookies do not collect any personal information and cannot be disabled without seriously affecting the performance of our website.
Essential cookies help us ensure the security of your session, remember items in your order, and process transactions when you place a food order through our platform.
3.2 Analytics and Performance Cookies
Analytics cookies help us understand how visitors interact with our website by collecting and reporting information anonymously. They allow us to count visits and traffic sources so we can measure and improve the performance of our site. These cookies help us understand which pages are the most and least popular, how visitors move around the site, and whether users are experiencing any errors.
We primarily use Google Analytics for this purpose. All information collected by these cookies is aggregated and anonymized. If you do not allow these cookies, we will not know when you have visited our site and will not be able to monitor its performance.
3.3 Functional Cookies
Functional cookies enable our website to remember choices you make (such as your preferred language, your region, or login details) and provide enhanced, more personalized features. These cookies may also be used to remember changes you have made to text size, fonts, and other customizable parts of our website.
For Cabana Taco's food ordering platform, functional cookies may remember your previous orders, dietary preferences, or delivery address to make future visits more convenient. The information these cookies collect may be anonymized and they cannot track your browsing activity on other websites.
3.4 Advertising and Targeting Cookies
Advertising cookies are used to deliver advertisements more relevant to you and your interests. They are also used to limit the number of times you see an advertisement and help measure the effectiveness of advertising campaigns. They are typically placed by advertising networks 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.
We use Google Ads cookies to track conversions and display relevant advertisements about Cabana Taco's menu and promotions to users who have previously visited our website. This type of remarketing allows us to connect with users who may be interested in our food offerings.
