What are cookies?
Cookies are small data files placed on your computer or mobile device when you visit a website. Website owners widely use cookies to ensure their websites function correctly or operate more efficiently, as well as to provide reporting information.

Cookies set by the website owner (in this case, Steamveilrest) are called “first-party cookies.” Cookies set by parties other than the website owner are called “third-party cookies.”

How we use cookies and manage your consent
We respect your privacy rights. When you visit www.steamveilrest.com, we display a cookie notification banner.

Strictly necessary cookies: These cookies are essential for the technical operation of our website (such as managing your shopping cart or maintaining your session). Your explicit prior consent is not required to use these cookies.

Non-essential cookies: We only deploy non-essential cookies (such as performance, analytics, or preference cookies) after you have explicitly consented by clicking the “Accept” button on the cookie banner. You are free to accept, reject, or adjust your preferences at any time.

Categories of cookies we use
A. Necessary/Essential cookies
These cookies are crucial for the proper functioning of the website and cannot be switched off in our systems. They are usually set only in response to actions made by you which amount to a request for services, such as setting your privacy preferences, logging in, or filling in forms.

B. Analytics and performance cookies
These cookies allow us to count visits and traffic sources so we can measure and improve the performance of our site. They help us understand which pages are the most and least popular and see how visitors move around the site. All information these cookies collect is aggregated and therefore anonymous.

C. Payment processing and security cookies (third-party)
To process payments made via www.steamveilrest.com, third-party cookies are set and managed by our payment processor, Stripe.

Stripe processes these cookies to verify transactions, facilitate smooth payment processing, and prevent unauthorized account activity. The operation and retention of these specific payment cookies are governed directly by Stripe’s Privacy and Cookie policies.
