Welcome to Cafe Rio ("we," "us," or "our"). This Cookie Policy applies to our website located at caferio-fresh.click and explains what cookies are, how we use them, the types of cookies we deploy, and how you can manage your cookie preferences.

2. What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files that are placed on your device (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, to improve user experience, and to provide reporting information.

Cookies are created by the web server and sent to your browser, where they are stored. The next time you visit the same website, your browser sends the cookie back to the server, allowing the website to recognize your device and remember certain information about you or your preferences.

Cookies set by the website owner (in this case, Cafe Rio) are called first-party cookies. Cookies set by parties other than the website owner are called third-party cookies. Third-party cookies enable third-party features or functionality to be provided on or through the website, such as advertising, interactive content, and analytics.

2.1 How Do Cookies Work?

When you visit caferio-fresh.click, our web server sends a cookie file to your browser. Your browser stores this file on your device.
