Last Updated: June 9, 2026
1. Introduction
Welcome to Marcos, your trusted food destination. At eat-marcos.click, we are committed to being transparent about how we collect and use data related to your browsing experience. This Cookie Policy forms part of our broader Privacy Policy and explains in detail what cookies are, how we use them, the types of cookies we deploy, and how you can manage your preferences.
This policy applies to all users who visit or interact with our website at eat-marcos.click. We encourage you to read this policy carefully. If you have any questions or concerns, please reach out to us using the contact details provided at the end of this document.
2. What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files that are placed on your computer, tablet, smartphone, or other internet-enabled device when you visit a website. These files are stored in your web browser and allow websites to recognize your device, remember your preferences, and improve your overall browsing experience.
Cookies are widely used by website owners across the internet to make their websites function properly, to make them work more efficiently, and to provide reporting information. Cookies set by the website owner (in this case, Marcos) are called "first-party cookies." Cookies set by parties other than the website owner are called "third-party cookies." Third-party cookies enable features or functionality to be provided on or through the website, such as advertising, interactive content, and analytics.
Cookies do not typically contain any information that personally identifies a user. However, personal information that we store about you may be linked to the information stored in and obtained from cookies. Cookies can be "persistent" or "session" cookies:
- Session Cookies: These are temporary cookies that remain on your device only for as long as your browser is open. Once you close your browser, these cookies are automatically deleted.
- Persistent Cookies: These cookies remain on your device for a specified period of time (or until you manually delete them). They are activated each time you visit the website that created that particular cookie.
3. How Do Cookies Work?
When you visit eat-marcos.click, our web server sends a cookie to your device. Your browser stores this cookie and sends it back to our server on subsequent visits. This process allows us to recognize your device, recall your preferences, and provide you with a more personalized experience.
Cookies can store a variety of information, such as your language preferences, login status, items in your cart or order history (if applicable), and how you interact with our website. This information helps us make your experience smoother, faster, and more tailored to your needs as a food lover engaging with our platform.
In addition to cookies, we may also use similar tracking technologies such as web beacons (also called "pixel tags" or "clear GIFs"), which are tiny images embedded in web pages or emails that help us understand user behavior, as well as local storage and session storage technologies that work in conjunction with cookies.
4. Types of Cookies We Use
We use the following categories of cookies on our website:
4.1 Strictly Necessary / Essential Cookies
These cookies are essential for the website to function properly. Without these cookies, our website would not work as intended, and services you have asked for cannot be provided. These cookies do not collect any information that could be used for marketing or to track your browsing activity on other websites.
Essential cookies allow you to navigate our website and use its features, such as accessing secure areas of the site, maintaining your session, and ensuring that our website's security features work correctly. Because these cookies are strictly necessary to deliver the website to you, you cannot refuse them without impacting how our website functions.
4.2 Analytics and Performance Cookies
These cookies collect information about how visitors use our website, such as which pages are visited most often and whether visitors receive error messages from web pages. The data collected by these cookies is aggregated and therefore anonymous — it does not identify you as an individual. We use this information to improve how our website works and to understand user behavior patterns.
We use Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google LLC, which uses cookies to help us analyze how users interact with our website. The information generated by these cookies about your use of our website is generally transmitted to and stored by Google on servers in the United States. Google may also transfer this information to third parties where required to do so by law, or where such third parties process the information on Google's behalf.
4.3 Functional Cookies
Functional cookies allow our website to remember choices you make (such as your preferred language, the region you are in, and any customizations you apply) and provide enhanced, more personalized features. These cookies may also be used to provide services you have asked for such as watching a video or using chat tools. The information these cookies collect may be anonymized, and they cannot track your browsing activity on other websites.
4.4 Advertising and 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 to help measure the effectiveness of advertising campaigns. They are usually placed by advertising networks with our permission. They remember that you have visited a website and this information is shared with other organizations such as advertisers.
We use Google Ads conversion tracking and remarketing cookies to measure and improve the performance of our advertising. These cookies help us understand how users who clicked on our advertisements interact with our website.
