1. Introduction

Welcome to Cabana Taco ("we," "us," or "our"). This Cookie Policy explains what cookies are, how we use them on our website cabana.click, the types of cookies we deploy, and how you can manage your cookie preferences. We are committed to being transparent about how we collect and use data related to your browsing activity on our platform.

This policy should be read alongside our Privacy Policy and Terms of Service, which together govern your use of our website and services. As a food business operating in the United States, we comply with applicable federal and state privacy regulations, including the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) as amended by the California Privacy Rights Act (CPRA), and the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) Act governing fair and transparent data practices.

2. What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files that are placed on your device — such as a computer, smartphone, or tablet — when you visit a website. They are widely used by websites to make them work more efficiently, to enhance user experience, and to provide information to the owners of the site. Cookies allow websites to recognize your device and remember certain information about your visit, such as your preferred language, login status, items in your cart, or pages you have viewed.

Cookies are not harmful programs. They cannot execute code, carry viruses, or access information on your hard drive. They simply store a small amount of data that can be read by the website that set them.

2.1 How Do Cookies Work?

When you visit cabana.click, our web server sends a cookie to your browser, which stores it on your device. On your next visit to our website, your browser sends the cookie back to our server, allowing us to recognize your device and recall information from your previous visit. Some cookies expire when you close your browser (session cookies), while others remain on your device for a set period of time or until you delete them (persistent cookies).

2.2 First-Party vs. Third-Party Cookies

  • First-party cookies are set directly by Cabana Taco when you visit cabana.click. They are used to support website functionality and improve your user experience.
  • Third-party cookies are set by external services or partners (such as Google Analytics, Google Ads, or Facebook) that we have integrated into our website. These third parties may use cookies to track your activity across multiple websites.

3. Types of Cookies We Use

We categorize the cookies used on cabana.click into four main types: Essential, Functional, Analytics, and Advertising cookies. Each category serves a distinct purpose, as described below.

3.1 Essential Cookies

These cookies are strictly necessary for the website to function properly. Without them, certain features such as secure login, page navigation, and access to restricted areas of the site would not be possible. Essential cookies do not require your consent under most privacy regulations because they are fundamental to the operation of the website.

Examples include cookies that maintain your session while you browse our online menu, place an order, or contact us through our web forms.

3.2 Functional Cookies

Functional cookies allow our website to remember choices you make — such as your preferred location, language settings, or whether you have previously accepted our cookie notice — and provide enhanced, more personalized features. These cookies may also be used to remember changes you have made to text size, font, and other customizable parts of web pages.

The information these cookies collect may be anonymized and they cannot track your browsing activity on other websites.

3.3 Analytics Cookies

Analytics cookies help us understand how visitors interact with our website by collecting and reporting information anonymously. This data helps us improve the structure, content, and performance of cabana.click. We use Google Analytics, a third-party web analytics service provided by Google LLC, to collect and analyze this data.

Google Analytics uses cookies to track user sessions, measure traffic sources, and report on user behavior. The information generated by these cookies about your use of our website is transmitted to and stored by Google on servers in the United States. Google may also transfer this information to third parties where required by law, or where such third parties process the information on Google's behalf.

3.4 Advertising & Marketing Cookies

Advertising 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. These cookies are usually placed by advertising networks such as Google Ads and Meta (Facebook) 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.

6. Impact of Disabling Cookies

While you have the right to restrict or disable cookies, please be aware that doing so may affect your experience on cabana.click. Below is a summary of the potential impacts based on the category of cookies disabled:

Cookie Type Impact If Disabled
Essential Cookies The website may not function properly. Features such as online ordering, secure login, form submission, and navigation may be significantly impaired or completely non-functional.
Functional Cookies Your preferences (such as saved location, language, and cart contents) will not be remembered between visits. You may need to re-enter information each time you visit the site.
Analytics Cookies We will not be able to collect data on how you use our website, which may limit our ability to identify and fix issues or improve the site. Your visit will not be counted in our statistics, but this will not affect your experience.
Advertising Cookies You will still see advertisements, but they will be generic and not tailored to your interests. You may see ads that are less relevant to you. Disabling these cookies does not mean you will see fewer ads overall.

7. Do Not Track Signals

Some browsers offer a "Do Not Track" (DNT) feature that signals to websites that you do not want your online activities tracked. At this time, there is no universally accepted standard for how websites should respond to DNT signals. Currently, our website does not alter its data collection practices in response to DNT signals. However, you may use the cookie management tools and opt-out mechanisms described in Section 5 to limit tracking.

8. Cookies and California Privacy Rights

  • The right to know what personal information is collected about you through cookies and how it is used.
  • The right to opt out of the "sale" or "sharing" of your personal information. Some cookie-based advertising practices may constitute the "sharing" of personal information under California law. You can exercise this right by using the opt-out tools described in Section 5.3 or by contacting us directly.
  • The right to delete personal information collected through cookies, subject to certain exceptions.
