What Are Cookies Anyway?

Cookies are tiny text files stored on your device when you visit websites. They're not programs and can't carry viruses. Instead, they act like digital bookmarks that help websites remember things about your visit.

When you return to veralyqomenu.com, these cookies help us recognise your device and recall your preferences. It's similar to how your local café might remember your usual order – except it happens automatically through technology.

We use both session cookies (which disappear when you close your browser) and persistent cookies (which stick around for a specified time). Each serves a different purpose in making your experience better.

Types of Tracking We Use

How Tracking Improves Your Experience

When you browse veralyqomenu.com, cookies work quietly in the background to make things better. Here's what that looks like in practice.

None of this involves selling your information or sharing it inappropriately. It's about making veralyqomenu.com work better for everyone who visits.

Different Tracking Technologies

Beyond traditional cookies, we use several other technologies to improve your experience. Web beacons (sometimes called pixel tags) help us understand email engagement and page views. They're tiny transparent images embedded in content.

Local storage is another tool we use. It's similar to cookies but can hold more information and doesn't automatically send data with every server request. This makes certain features faster and more responsive.

Session storage works like local storage but clears itself when you close the browser tab. We use it for temporary data that only matters during your current visit.

All these technologies follow the same privacy principles as our cookie usage. They're here to enhance functionality, not to invade your privacy.

Third-Party Cookies

Sometimes veralyqomenu.com includes content from other services – like embedded videos or social media widgets. These might set their own cookies when you interact with them.

We're careful about which third-party services we include. Each one serves a legitimate purpose and follows privacy standards. But we don't control their cookie policies directly.

When you see embedded content from another service, you're subject to their cookie policy in addition to ours. We recommend reviewing the privacy policies of any third-party services you interact with through our site.

Your Rights and Choices

Under Australian privacy law, you have specific rights regarding how we collect and use your information. You can access the data we've collected, request corrections, or ask us to delete certain information.

If you're concerned about tracking, start with your browser's privacy settings. Modern browsers offer robust controls over cookies and tracking technologies.

You can also opt out of interest-based advertising through industry tools and settings. This doesn't eliminate all cookies, but it stops ones used for targeted advertising.

We respect Do Not Track signals where technically feasible, though there's no universal standard for how websites should respond to these requests.

Changes to This Policy

We update this policy occasionally as our practices evolve or regulations change. When we make significant changes, we'll notify you through the website or by email if you've subscribed to our programs.

The date at the top of this policy shows when it was last revised. Checking back periodically helps you stay informed about how we use tracking technologies.

Continuing to use veralyqomenu.com after policy updates indicates your acceptance of the changes. If you disagree with modifications, you can adjust your cookie settings or stop using the site.
