Cookie Policy
Last Updated: March 29, 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 explains what cookies are, what types of cookies we use, how we use them, and how you can manage your cookie preferences when you visit our website at via313.rest.
This policy should be read alongside our Privacy Policy, which provides additional information about how we collect, process, and protect your personal information. If you have any questions about our use of cookies, please contact us using the details provided at the end of this document.
We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in technology, regulation, or our business practices. Any changes will be posted on this page with an updated revision date. We encourage you to check this page periodically to stay informed about our use of cookies.
2. What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files that are placed on your computer, tablet, smartphone, or other device when you visit a website. They are widely used by website owners to make their websites work more efficiently, as well as to provide reporting information and personalized experiences to users.
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, such as advertising, interactive content, and analytics.
Cookies do not typically contain any information that personally identifies a user. However, personal data that we store about you may be linked to the information stored in and obtained from cookies. This linkage helps us improve our website and deliver a more personalized experience.
2.1 How Do Cookies Work?
When you visit our website, our web server sends a cookie to your browser, which stores it as a small text file on your device. Each time you return to our website, your browser sends this cookie back to the server, allowing us to recognize your device and remember your preferences or past interactions.
Cookies can be "persistent" or "session" cookies. Persistent cookies remain on your device for a set period of time specified in the cookie, or until you delete them manually. Session cookies are temporary and are deleted from your device as soon as you close your web browser. These different types of cookies serve different purposes and are used across our website to enhance your experience.
2.2 Similar Tracking Technologies
In addition to cookies, we may use other similar tracking technologies such as:
- Web Beacons (Pixel Tags): Small graphic images embedded in a web page or email that allow us to track whether you have viewed the page or email.
- Local Storage: A mechanism that allows websites to store data locally within your browser, similar to cookies but with a larger storage capacity and no expiration date.
- JavaScript Tags: Small pieces of code that collect information about how you interact with our website.
For the purposes of this policy, all these technologies are collectively referred to as "cookies."
3. Types of Cookies We Use
We use several different types of cookies on our website. Each type serves a specific function and plays an important role in how our website operates and how we serve you better.
3.1 Essential / Strictly Necessary Cookies
These cookies are essential for our website to function properly and cannot be disabled in our systems. They are usually set only in response to actions you take, such as setting your privacy preferences, logging in, filling out forms, or making online reservations. These cookies do not store any personally identifiable information and are necessary to provide you with the services you have requested.
Because these cookies are strictly necessary for the operation of the website, they do not require your consent under applicable law. However, you can still block them through your browser settings, though this may affect how the website functions.
3.2 Analytics / Performance Cookies
These cookies allow us to count visits and traffic sources so we can measure and improve the performance of our website. They help us understand which pages are the most and least popular, how visitors move around the site, and where traffic comes from. All information these cookies collect is aggregated and therefore anonymous.
We primarily use Google Analytics for this purpose. Google Analytics uses cookies to collect information about how visitors use our website. This information is used to compile reports and to help us improve the site. The cookies collect information in an anonymous form, including the number of visitors to the site, where visitors have come from, and the pages they visited.
3.3 Functional Cookies
Functional cookies enable our website to provide enhanced functionality and personalization. They may be set by us or by third-party providers whose services we have added to our pages. These cookies remember your preferences and choices, such as your preferred language, your location, or your order history, to provide a more personalized experience.
If you disable these cookies, some or all of these services may not function properly, and you may need to re-enter your preferences each time you visit our website.
3.4 Advertising / Targeting Cookies
These cookies may be set through our website by our advertising partners, such as Google Ads and social media platforms. They may be used by those companies to build a profile of your interests and show you relevant advertisements on other sites. They do not directly store personal information but are based on uniquely identifying your browser and internet device.
These cookies track your activity across different websites to help advertisers deliver more relevant ads to you. If you do not allow these cookies, you will still see advertisements, but they will be less targeted and relevant to your interests.
