Website Visitors

Like most website operators, Bodega Bean Coffee & Cafe (Bodega Bean) collects non-personally-identifying information of the sort that web browsers and servers typically make available, such as the browser type, language preference, referring site, and the date and time of each visitor request. Bodega Bean's purpose in collecting non-personally identifying information is to better understand how Bodega Bean's visitors use its website.

Bodega Bean also collects potentially personally-identifying information like Internet Protocol (IP) addresses for logged in users.

In each case, Bodega Bean collects such information only insofar as is necessary or appropriate to fulfill the purpose of the visitor's interaction with Bodega Bean. Bodega Bean does not disclose personally-identifying information other than as described below.
