Last Updated: May 27, 2026

1. Introduction

Welcome to foodmarcos.click, the official website of Marcos, a food business operating in the United States. We are committed to being transparent about the technologies we use on our website and how they affect your browsing experience.

This Cookie Policy is designed to help you understand what cookies are, what types of cookies we use, why we use them, and how you can manage your cookie preferences. Please read this policy carefully. If you have any questions, you can contact us using the details provided at the end of this document.

This policy should be read alongside our Privacy Policy and our Terms of Service, which together govern your use of our website and services.

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 websites work more efficiently, improve user experience, and provide reporting information.

Cookies are created by the web server that hosts the website you are visiting and are delivered to your browser. Your browser then stores the cookie on your device. The next time you visit the same website, your browser sends the cookie back to the server, allowing the site to recognize your device and remember certain information about your previous visit.

Cookies do not contain executable code and generally cannot be used to spread viruses. However, they can store unique identifiers that allow websites and third-party services to track your browsing behavior across the internet.

2.1 First-Party vs. Third-Party Cookies

  • First-party cookies are set directly by foodmarcos.click. These cookies are used to improve your experience on our site and remember your preferences.
  • Third-party cookies are set by a domain other than the one you are visiting. For example, when we use Google Analytics or advertising networks, those services may place their own cookies on your device. We do not have direct control over these cookies.

2.2 Session vs. Persistent Cookies

  • Session cookies are temporary and are deleted from your device when you close your browser. They are typically used to keep track of your activities during a single browsing session.
  • Persistent cookies remain on your device for a set period of time or until you manually delete them. They are used to remember your preferences and settings for future visits.

3. How We Use Cookies

At Marcos, we use cookies and similar tracking technologies for a variety of purposes, including:

  • Ensuring the website functions correctly and securely
  • Remembering your preferences and settings
  • Analyzing how visitors use our website so we can improve our services
  • Delivering relevant advertising to you on our site and on third-party platforms
  • Measuring the effectiveness of our marketing campaigns
  • Providing social media features and integrations

4. Types of Cookies We Use

We categorize the cookies used on foodmarcos.click into four main types:

4.1 Essential / Strictly Necessary Cookies

These cookies are absolutely necessary for the website to function properly. Without these cookies, certain features and services cannot be provided. They are typically set in response to actions you take, such as filling in a form, logging into your account, or setting your privacy preferences. These cookies do not store any personally identifiable information and cannot be disabled through our cookie management tools, as doing so would impair the functioning of the website.

Legal basis under US law: These cookies are used based on our legitimate interest in providing a functional and secure website service, consistent with the principles of the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) Act governing unfair or deceptive practices.

4.2 Analytics / Performance Cookies

These cookies collect information about how visitors use our website — for example, which pages they visit most often and whether they receive error messages from web pages. All information collected by these cookies is aggregated and therefore anonymous. These cookies help us understand and improve the performance of our website. We use Google Analytics for this purpose.

If you are a California resident, under the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) and California Privacy Rights Act (CPRA), you have the right to opt out of the sale or sharing of your personal information, which may include data collected by analytics cookies.

4.3 Functional Cookies

These cookies allow the website to remember choices you make (such as your username, language preference, or the region you are in) and provide enhanced, more personalized features. They may also be used to provide services you have requested, 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 / 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 are usually placed by advertising networks like Google Ads and Meta (Facebook) with the website operator's permission. These cookies remember that you have visited our website and this information may be shared with other organizations, such as advertisers. These cookies may track your browsing activity across multiple websites.

When you access these pages or open an email, the web beacon generates a notice of that action to us, or to our service providers.

  • Session Storage: Similar to local storage but is cleared when your browser session ends.
  • Scripts: JavaScript code embedded in our website that collects information about your interactions and behavior on the site.

7. How to Manage and Control Cookies
