Last Updated: June 21, 2026

1. Introduction

Welcome to Costa Vida. We are committed to being transparent about how we collect and use data related to your use of our website. This Cookie Policy forms part of our Privacy Policy and explains in detail what cookies are, what types of cookies we use, how you can manage your cookie preferences, and how disabling certain cookies may affect your experience on our site.

This policy applies to the website costavida-cafe.click and all associated subdomains operated by Costa Vida. Our operations are based in the United States, and we comply with applicable federal and state laws, including the Federal Trade Commission Act (FTC Act), the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA), and the California Privacy Rights Act (CPRA) where applicable.

If you have any questions about our use of cookies or this policy, you may contact us at any time 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 more efficiently, to provide functionality, and to gather reporting information about how visitors interact with those sites.

Cookies are created by the web server that hosts the website and delivered to your browser. Your browser stores the cookie file and sends it back to the server each time you visit the same website. This allows the website to recognize you and remember your preferences or actions over time.

Cookies do not typically contain personally identifiable information on their own, 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 you are visiting are called first-party cookies. Cookies set by parties other than the website you are visiting are called third-party cookies.

2.1 How Cookies Work

When you visit costavida-cafe.click for the first time, our server sends a cookie to your browser. Your browser saves this cookie on your device. On your next visit to our site, your browser sends the cookie back to our server, allowing us to recognize your device and recall your preferences or session information. This process happens automatically and is essential to the functioning of most modern websites.

Cookies can be either session cookies — which are deleted when you close your browser — or persistent cookies, which remain on your device for a specified period of time or until you delete them manually.

3. Types of Cookies We Use

Costa Vida uses four main categories of cookies on our website. Each category serves a specific purpose, as described below.

3.1 Strictly Necessary (Essential) Cookies

These cookies are absolutely essential for the proper functioning of our website. Without these cookies, services you have asked for — such as navigating between pages, filling out forms, or accessing secure areas — cannot be provided. These cookies do not collect any information about you that could be used for marketing or tracking your browsing activity across other websites.

Because these cookies are strictly necessary to deliver the website to you, they cannot be disabled without severely affecting how the website functions. Under applicable law, we do not require your consent to place strictly necessary cookies.

3.2 Analytics and Performance Cookies

These cookies collect information about how visitors use our website — for instance, which pages are visited most often, how long users spend on a page, and whether users encounter error messages. All information collected by these cookies is aggregated and therefore anonymous. They help us understand and improve the way our website performs.

We use Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google LLC, to help us analyze website traffic and usage patterns. Google Analytics uses cookies to collect information such as your IP address, browser type, operating system, referral source, pages visited, and time spent on the website.

3.3 Functional Cookies

Functional cookies allow our website to remember choices you make — such as your preferred language, region, or other customized settings — and provide you with a more personalized experience. These cookies may also be used to provide services you have requested, such as watching a video or remembering your preferences for online ordering at Costa Vida.

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

3.4 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 remember that you have visited a website and this information may be shared with other organizations such as advertisers.

We may use Google Ads and other third-party advertising platforms to deliver personalized advertisements to you based on your interests and browsing behavior. These platforms use cookies to track your interactions with our ads across different websites and devices.

4. Specific Cookies We Use

The table below provides detailed information about the specific cookies used on costavida-cafe.click, including their name, purpose, type, and duration.

Please note that third-party providers may update the cookies they use at any time. We will endeavor to keep this table as up to date as possible, but we recommend consulting the privacy and cookie policies of each third-party provider for the most current information.

5. Third-Party Cookies and Services

In addition to our own cookies, we work with trusted third-party service providers who may also set cookies on your device when you visit our website. These third parties include:

5.1 Google LLC

Google provides us with analytics services (Google Analytics) and advertising services (Google Ads, Google DoubleClick). Google's use of cookies is governed by its own Privacy Policy, available at https://policies.google.com/privacy. Google may use the data collected to contextualize and personalize the ads of its own advertising network.

5.2 Meta Platforms (Facebook)

We may use Facebook Pixel and related Meta advertising tools to measure the effectiveness of our advertising campaigns and to deliver relevant ads to users who have visited our website. Meta's cookie and data usage is governed by its Data Policy, available at https://www.facebook.com/privacy/policy/.

5.3 Other Third-Party Providers

We may integrate additional third-party tools and services for purposes such as customer support, social media sharing, embedded videos, and payment processing. Each of these providers may set their own cookies and collect their own data subject to their respective privacy and cookie policies. We encourage you to review those policies directly.

6. How to Manage and Control Cookies

• iOS (Apple): Go to Settings > Privacy & Security > Tracking. You can disable app tracking requests globally or for individual apps.

7. Impact of Disabling Cookies

If you choose to disable or restrict certain cookies, please be aware of the following potential impacts on your experience at costavida-cafe.click:

• Essential Cookies Disabled: The website may not function correctly. You may be unable to navigate between pages smoothly, submit forms, complete online orders, or access any secure areas of the site.
• Analytics Cookies Disabled: We will not be able to monitor website performance or understand how visitors interact with our site. This means we may be slower to identify and fix issues that affect user experience.
• Functional Cookies Disabled: Your preferences — such as language settings, saved menu preferences, and personalized content — will not be remembered between visits. You may need to re-enter information each time you visit.
• Advertising Cookies Disabled: You will still see advertisements, but they will be generic rather than tailored to your interests. You may see ads that are less relevant to you.

We recommend that you allow at least essential and functional cookies for the best possible experience on our website. If you have questions about which cookies are required for specific features, please contact us.

8. Do Not Track Signals

Some browsers include a "Do Not Track" (DNT) feature that signals to websites that you do not want your online activity tracked. Currently, there is no universally accepted standard for how websites should respond to DNT signals, and we do not currently alter our data collection practices in response to DNT signals. However, we provide the cookie management tools described in this policy to give you control over your data.

9. California Privacy Rights

If you are a California resident, you have additional rights under the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) and the California Privacy Rights Act (CPRA) regarding the personal information collected through cookies. These rights include:

• The right to know what personal information is collected, used, shared, or sold.
