Cookie Policy
Last Updated: July 18, 2026
1. Introduction
Welcome to Via 313. We are committed to being transparent about how we collect and use data related to you. This Cookie Policy provides detailed information about how and when we use cookies on our website located at cafevia313.rest.
This policy should be read alongside our Privacy Policy and Terms of Service, which together govern how we collect, process, and store information about visitors to our website. By accessing or using our website, you acknowledge that you have read and understood this Cookie Policy.
If you have any questions about our use of cookies or other technologies, please contact us using the details provided at the end of this document.
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 their websites work, or work more efficiently, as well as to provide reporting information and to deliver a better, more personalized user experience.
Cookies are created by the web server and sent to the browser where they are stored. Each time the user loads the website, the browser sends the cookie back to the server to notify the website of the user's previous activity. Cookies do not typically contain any information that personally identifies a user, but personal information that we store about you may be linked to the information stored in and obtained from cookies.
Cookies set by the website owner — in this case, Via 313 — 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 (e.g., advertising, interactive content, and analytics). The parties that set these third-party cookies can recognize your device both when it visits the website in question and also when it visits certain other websites.
3. How Do Cookies Work?
When you first visit our website, a cookie file is downloaded to your device. The cookie helps our website recognize your device on future visits. Most cookies contain a unique identifier called a "cookie ID" — a string of characters that websites and servers associate with the browser on which the cookie is stored. This allows the website to distinguish your browser from other browsers that store different cookies.
Cookies can be "session cookies" or "persistent cookies." Session cookies are temporary cookies that expire when you close your browser. Persistent cookies remain on your device for a set period defined in the cookie or until you manually delete them. Both types serve different purposes and help us improve your experience on our website.
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 to enable you to move around the website and use its features. Without these cookies, certain services you have asked for, such as remembering your login information or filling in online forms, cannot be provided. Because these cookies are strictly necessary to deliver the website to you, they cannot be refused without impacting how our website functions. You can block or delete them by changing your browser settings, but this may impact how the website functions.
4.2 Analytics and Performance Cookies
These cookies collect information about how visitors use our website, such as which pages visitors go to most often and whether visitors receive error messages from web pages. These cookies don't collect information that identifies individual visitors. All information these cookies collect is aggregated and therefore anonymous. We use these cookies to understand how our website is being used and how we can improve it. We primarily use Google Analytics for this purpose.
4.3 Functional Cookies
These cookies allow our website to remember choices you make (such as your language preference or your location) and provide enhanced, more personalized features. They may also be used to provide services you have asked for, such as watching a video or commenting on a blog. 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 more relevant to you and your interests. They are also used to limit the number of times you see an advertisement as well as help measure the effectiveness of advertising campaigns. They remember that you have visited our website and this information is shared with other organizations such as advertisers. Quite often targeting or advertising cookies will be linked to website functionality provided by other organizations.
