Last Updated: June 14, 2026

1. Introduction

Welcome to Dions ("we," "us," or "our"). This Cookie Policy explains what cookies are, how we use them on our website cafedions.rest, the types of cookies we deploy, and how you can manage your cookie preferences. We are committed to being transparent about our data practices and ensuring you have control over your personal information.

This Cookie 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 laws, including the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) as amended by the California Privacy Rights Act (CPRA), the FTC Act, and other applicable consumer protection regulations.

We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in technology, legislation, or our business practices. We encourage you to review this page periodically. The date at the top of this policy indicates when it was last revised.

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 operators to make websites work more efficiently, to improve user experience, and to provide reporting information to site owners.

Cookies are created by the web server that hosts the website you visit. The server sends a cookie to your browser, which stores it. Each time you revisit the website, your browser sends the cookie back to the server, allowing the website to recognize your device and remember certain information about your visit — such as your preferences, login status, or items in a shopping cart.

Cookies do not typically contain personally identifiable information on their own. However, personal data that we store about you may be linked to information stored in and obtained from cookies. This helps us deliver a more personalized and relevant experience when you interact with our website at cafedions.rest.

2.1 How Cookies Work

When you visit cafedions.rest, our web server may send one or more cookies to your browser. These cookies record information about your session, preferences, and activity. Here is a simplified breakdown of the process:

• Step 1: You visit our website for the first time.
• Step 2: Our server sends a cookie to your browser, which stores it on your device.
• Step 3: On subsequent visits, your browser automatically sends the stored cookie back to our server.
• Step 4: Our server reads the cookie and uses the data to tailor your browsing experience accordingly.

2.2 Types of Cookies by Duration

Cookies can be classified based on how long they remain on your device:

• Session Cookies: These are temporary cookies that exist only for the duration of your browsing session. They are automatically deleted when you close your browser. Session cookies are typically used to maintain your session while you navigate the website.
• Persistent Cookies: These cookies remain on your device for a set period of time (defined by an expiration date) or until you manually delete them. They are used to remember your preferences and settings across multiple visits.

2.3 First-Party vs. Third-Party Cookies

• First-Party Cookies: These are cookies set directly by Dions (i.e., by the cafedions.rest domain). They are used to improve your experience on our website.
• Third-Party Cookies: These are cookies set by external services or platforms that we integrate into our website, such as Google Analytics, Google Ads, or social media platforms. These third parties may use cookies to track your activity across multiple websites.

3. Why We Use Cookies

At Dions, we use cookies for a variety of important purposes, including:

• Ensuring the website functions correctly and securely
• Remembering your preferences and settings so you do not have to re-enter them on each visit
• Analyzing how visitors use our website so we can improve our content, layout, and menu offerings
• Measuring the effectiveness of our marketing and advertising campaigns
• Providing relevant advertisements and promotional content tailored to your interests
• Enabling social media features and integrations
• Complying with legal obligations and security requirements

4. Categories of Cookies We Use

We use the following four main categories of cookies on cafedions.rest:

4.1 Strictly Necessary / Essential Cookies

These cookies are essential for the website to function properly. Without them, certain features of our website — such as navigation, secure areas, and online ordering — would not work. These cookies do not collect any personally identifiable information and cannot be turned off in our systems. They are usually set in response to actions you take, such as filling out forms or logging into your account.

Because these cookies are strictly necessary, they are not subject to your consent under most applicable laws, including the CCPA/CPRA.

4.2 Analytics and Performance Cookies

These cookies help us understand how visitors interact with our website by collecting and reporting information anonymously. They allow us to measure traffic, identify popular pages, and detect any errors or issues with our site. The data collected helps us improve the performance and user experience of cafedions.rest.

We primarily use Google Analytics for this purpose. Google Analytics places several cookies on your device to track session data, user behavior, and traffic sources.

4.3 Functional Cookies

Functional cookies allow the website to remember choices you make and provide enhanced, more personalized features. For example, they may remember your preferred language, your location for delivery purposes, or your menu preferences. These cookies may be set by us or by third-party providers whose services we have added to our pages.

If you choose to disable functional cookies, some features of our website may not work as intended, but you will still be able to browse the site.

4.4 Advertising and Targeting Cookies

These cookies are used to deliver advertisements that are more relevant to you and your interests. They may also be used to limit the number of times you see an advertisement and to help measure the effectiveness of our advertising campaigns. These cookies are typically placed by third-party advertising networks, such as Google Ads, with our permission.

They work by identifying your device uniquely and tracking your browsing habits across different websites. This allows advertisers to serve you targeted ads based on your online behavior.

Some browsers include a "Do Not Track" (DNT) feature that signals to websites that you do not want to have your online activity tracked. There is currently no universally accepted standard for how websites should respond to DNT signals. At this time, our website does not respond to DNT browser signals. However, you may use the opt-out tools described in Section 6 of this policy to limit tracking.
