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. These files are stored in your web browser and allow the website — or third parties — to recognize your device and remember certain information about your visit, such as your preferences, settings, and browsing behavior.

Cookies serve many purposes. Some cookies are essential for a website to function properly, while others help website owners understand how visitors interact with their content, display relevant advertisements, or remember your personal preferences for a better user experience.

Cookies do not typically contain personally identifiable information on their own. However, when combined with other data, they may allow us or our partners to identify you as an individual.

2.1 How Do Cookies Work?

When you visit food-dions.top, our web server sends a cookie to your browser. Your browser stores this cookie on your device. The next time you visit our website, your browser sends that cookie back to our server, allowing us to recognize your device and recall your preferences or session information.

Cookies can be set by the website you are visiting (known as "first-party cookies") or by third-party services operating on that website, such as analytics or advertising platforms (known as "third-party cookies").

2.2 Types of Cookies by Duration

  • Session Cookies: These are temporary cookies that exist only for the duration of your browsing session. They are automatically deleted from your device 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 help websites remember your preferences across multiple visits.
