A plain-language summary
What cookies are
Cookies are small text files that a website may place on, or access through, your browser when you visit a page. They can help a website remember information about a visit or the browser being used. Similar technologies can perform related functions, such as storing or retrieving information connected with a browser or device. A cookie does not automatically mean that a website knows who you are as an individual.
Why the website may use them
Depending on the tools enabled at the time, cookies may support essential website operation, remember choices, help us understand general use of the site, or record cookie preferences. These purposes are described in this policy as categories rather than as a list of suppliers. Optional preference and analytics technologies may not be active on every visit, browser or version of the website.
Scope
Cookies and similar technologies
Cookies and related storage tools
This policy covers browser cookies and may also cover similar technologies used to store, retrieve or recognise information associated with a browser or device. Depending on the browser, device and service configuration, this could include tools commonly described as local storage or other browser-based storage. The precise technology can vary over time, so this policy focuses on the purpose of the technology rather than technical labels alone.
In practical terms, these tools can allow a website to recognise that a browser has returned, retain a setting for a later page view, or support the reliable delivery of a page. They are not all used in the same way, and not every browser will receive every type of technology described here.
First-party cookies
First-party cookies are set directly by eaterymargaretriver.com. Where used, they may support the operation of the website, its settings or records of choices made through the site. Their use depends on the website features and configuration available at the time you visit.
Third-party cookies
Third-party cookies may be set by a service provider where that provider’s tool is enabled on the website. If this occurs, the relevant provider may handle its technology under its own policies. We do not suggest that every visitor will receive third-party cookies or that every type of tool is always enabled.

How cookies may be used
01
Category
Strictly necessary cookies
Supporting essential website operation
Essential cookies may be needed for basic website operation, security, navigation, load balancing or recording privacy choices. Where a cookie is necessary for a service to function, it may not be available to disable through a site preference tool. This does not mean that essential cookies are always present; their use can depend on the way the website is configured and the functions being requested through your browser.
02
Category
Preference cookies
Remembering selected settings
Preference cookies may remember settings or choices so the website can present a more consistent experience when you return. Potential examples can include language, region or interface choices, but only where that functionality is enabled. We do not imply that every setting is available on this website. If preference tools are used, they are intended to support the chosen feature rather than to create unnecessary records.

Analytics cookies
Understanding general website use
Where analytics technologies are enabled, they may help us understand aggregated patterns such as pages viewed, general traffic sources and how visitors move through the site. This can help improve content, navigation and usability. We do not identify a particular analytics provider, retention period or method of matching activity to a person in this policy. Analytics use, if present, can vary according to the tools enabled and the choices available to a visitor.

Category
Consent and settings records
Respecting cookie choices
The website may store a record of cookie choices so it can respect or remember preferences, subject to browser settings and the tools in use. If you clear browser data, use a different browser or device, or change relevant settings, a saved choice may be removed or may need to be made again. See the next section for practical ways to review or change your settings.
Practical guidance
Managing your cookie choices
Use the website’s cookie settings
Where available, you can revisit the website’s cookie settings to review or adjust choices about optional cookies. These controls are provided through the site’s consent mechanism and may appear when you first visit or through a settings option made available elsewhere on the site. Changes generally apply to future use where technically possible. The controls and available categories can vary as the website configuration changes.
Manage cookies in your browser
You can usually use browser or device settings to manage cookies directly. The current steps differ by browser, operating system and device, so consult your browser’s own support information for instructions that apply to you. Browser controls commonly allow you to:
view cookies or other stored website data held by your browser;
delete selected data or clear stored data for websites you have visited; and
block or restrict cookies generally, or set rules for particular websites.
