Cookie Policy
This page explains the small local preference used for the cookie notice and basic coffee request form behaviour. The site is designed to help visitors review cafe information and contact the cafe desk without unnecessary tracking. Advertising cookies are not required to display pages or submit ordinary visit enquiries.
The current site does not require third-party advertising cookies to display the pages.
Purpose of this policy
Clover Roast is a cozy Irish coffee shop serving freshly brewed coffee and delicious treats every day. We use quality beans and carefully crafted recipes to create a smooth, rich taste. This Cookie Policy explains how the public website uses a limited local preference and related form safeguards so visitors can browse service information, compare package paths, and contact the cafe desk without unnecessary tracking. It applies to pages that display the cookie notice and to the public request form used for cafe visits, catering questions, pricing routes, and package enquiries. The goal is transparency rather than a catalogue of advertising products. If you only want to read package descriptions and send a short request, you should be able to do that with a small storage footprint. This policy does not replace our Privacy Policy. Browser storage on your device is different from the booking records we keep after a genuine enquiry. Those records are described in the Privacy Policy. This page is only about the small technical files a browser may keep while you read Clover Roast.
What we mean by cookies and local storage
Cookies are small pieces of data stored by a browser. Some sites also use localStorage to remember simple preferences. On this site, the primary preference remembered after you accept the notice is a local record that the notice was acknowledged. That record helps prevent the same banner from interrupting every page view. It is not used to build advertising profiles, sell audience segments, or track you across unrelated websites. If your browser blocks storage, the notice may reappear more often, but core page content should still remain readable for Dublin visitors comparing cafe and catering packages. Session data kept only while a tab is open is a temporary technical aid, not a marketing file. We do not need your location history, contact list, or camera to show these pages. Where a form remembers that you spent a short time on the page before sending, that check exists to reduce automated spam. It does not identify you to advertisers. Both cookies and local storage can be cleared by you. We do not use hidden social pixels or fingerprinting scripts as a condition of reading a menu preview. If a firewall strips all storage, you can still telephone the desk.
Local preference and form behaviour
The cookie notice uses localStorage to remember that the notice was accepted. The stored value is a simple acknowledgement related to this website only. It does not contain your order category, preferred package, payment card numbers, or message text. Clearing site data, using private browsing, or switching devices can remove the preference. After clearance, the notice may display again until accepted once more. Basic timing and hidden fields may be used to reduce automated spam and keep the public form functional. These measures help the cafe desk spend time on genuine coffee requests rather than bot submissions. When you submit a request, the information you type into visible fields is handled under our Privacy Policy. Describe the order category, preferred package, and timing so we can confirm the correct visit path. The hidden company field is a honeypot and should be left empty. A started-at value may record that a human spent a short moment on the page. It is a same-visit check, not a map of every page you opened. Baristas do not see your localStorage value. They see the message you sent.
What we do not use today
The current site does not require third-party advertising cookies to display pages or accept contact requests. We do not rely on cross-site behavioural advertising networks. If future features introduce additional cookies, this policy will be updated to describe purpose, duration, and control options first. Until then, visitors should expect a minimal storage footprint focused on notice acknowledgement and form reliability. We do not drop social-network pixels as a condition of reading this site. Analytics that identify you across unrelated brands are not part of the current design. We do not use cookies to remember unused quotes, because pricing belongs in a confirmed note. We do not sell cookie data or retarget you with banner adverts after you leave. Photographs on the site are ordinary image files. Fonts are served from this site's own typeface files. A notice on a legal page uses the same local preference as the home page, not a second tracking system. Enjoy espresso, cappuccino, latte, tea, and fresh pastries without accepting an advertising cookie first.
Control, retention, and questions
You can clear localStorage or browser site data at any time through your browser settings. Most browsers also allow you to block cookies for a single site. Using those controls may reset the cookie notice preference. Blocking all storage may require you to re-enter information more often, but it will not prevent you from reading service pages or contacting us by email or phone. If you prefer not to use the web form, contact the desk at [email protected] or +353 1 408 4800. The cafe desk operates Monday to Sunday, 7:00 to 19:00 Irish Standard Time. Operational records created after you send a coffee request are retained according to our Privacy Policy, separately from the browser preference. Questions may also be posted to St. James's Gate, Dublin 8, D08 VF8H, Ireland. Please describe the browser and page where you saw the notice. A privacy complaint about cookies can be sent to the same desk contacts, and you may also raise a concern with the Data Protection Commission in Ireland. Today the stored notice flag is a local acknowledgement, not a marketing profile.
