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 websites work more efficiently, to provide functionality, and to gather information about how visitors interact with the site.
Cookies are sent back to the originating website on each subsequent visit, or to another website that recognizes that cookie. Cookies are useful because they allow a website to recognize a user's device and remember certain information about your preferences or past actions.
2.1 How Do Cookies Work?
When you visit starbird-chicken.rest, our web server sends a cookie to your browser, which stores it as a small file on your device. The next time you visit our site, your browser sends the cookie back to our server. This allows us to recognize your device and remember your preferences, improving your browsing experience.
Cookies can be set by the website you are visiting (known as "first-party cookies") or by third parties, such as analytics providers and advertising networks (known as "third-party cookies").
2.2 Types of Cookies by Duration
- Session Cookies: These are temporary cookies that exist only during your browsing session. They are deleted from your device automatically when you close your browser.
- Persistent Cookies: These cookies remain on your device for a set period of time after your browsing session ends or until you manually delete them. They are activated each time you visit the website that created them.
3. Types of Cookies We Use
We use the following categories of cookies on starbird-chicken.rest:
3.1 Strictly Necessary (Essential) Cookies
These cookies are essential for you to browse our website and use its features. Without these cookies, services you have asked for — such as navigating between pages or completing an online order — cannot be provided. These cookies do not gather any information about you that could be used for marketing or remembering which websites you have visited.
Because these cookies are strictly necessary to deliver the website to you, you cannot refuse them without impacting how our site functions. However, you can block or delete them by changing your browser settings, as described below.
3.2 Analytical / Performance Cookies
These cookies collect information about how you use our website — for example, which pages you visit most often and whether you receive error messages from web pages. The information collected by these cookies is aggregated and therefore anonymous. It is only used to improve how our website works.
We use Google Analytics for this purpose. Google Analytics uses cookies to collect standard internet log information and visitor behavior information in an anonymous form. The information generated by the cookie about your use of our website is transmitted to Google.
3.3 Functional Cookies
These cookies allow our website to remember choices you make (such as your preferred language, the region you are in, or your saved items) and provide enhanced, more personalized features. These cookies can also be used to remember changes you have made to text size, font, and other parts of web pages that you can customize.
The information these cookies collect may be anonymized and they cannot track your browsing activity on other websites.
3.4 Advertising / Targeting Cookies
These cookies are used to deliver advertisements that are 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 remember that you have visited a website and this information may be shared with other organizations, such as advertisers.
We use Google Ads cookies for this purpose. These cookies track whether you came to our website from a Google ad, and whether your visit resulted in the use of a service or the purchase of a product. This allows us to measure the effectiveness of our advertising campaigns.
