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 and operators to make websites work more efficiently, improve user experience, and provide reporting information.
Cookies are created by your web browser at the request of a website and are stored on your device. When you visit the same website again, the browser sends the cookie back to the server, allowing the website to recognize your device and remember certain information about your preferences or past actions.
Cookies typically contain the following information:
- The name of the server the cookie was sent from
- The lifetime of the cookie (how long it remains on your device)
- A value — usually a randomly generated unique number
Cookies themselves do not typically contain personal information, but the data we collect through cookies may be combined with other information we hold about you, which could result in the identification of a specific individual.
2.1 First-Party vs. Third-Party Cookies
First-party cookies are set directly by the website you are visiting — in this case, starbirdchickengrill.click. These cookies are only readable by our website.
Third-party cookies are set by a domain other than the one you are currently visiting. For example, when you visit our website, third-party service providers such as Google Analytics or advertising platforms may set cookies on your device. These third parties have their own privacy and cookie policies, which govern how they use your data.
2.2 Session Cookies vs. Persistent Cookies
Session cookies are temporary cookies that expire when you close your browser. They are used to maintain a temporary session while you browse our website.
Persistent cookies remain on your device for a specified duration, even after you close your browser. They are activated every time you visit the website that created that particular cookie.
