This Cookie Policy forms part of our overall Privacy Policy and explains in detail what cookies are, the types of cookies we use, why we use them, and how you can manage your cookie preferences.

2. What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files that are placed on your computer, smartphone, tablet, or other internet-enabled device when you visit a website. They are widely used by website owners to make websites work more efficiently, to improve user experience, and to provide reporting information to website owners.

Cookies are created by the web server and sent to your browser, where they are stored. When you return to the same website, the browser sends the cookie back to the server, allowing the website to recognize you and remember your preferences or activities over time.

Cookies do not typically contain personally identifiable information on their own. However, personal information that we store about you may be linked to information stored in and obtained from cookies. Cookies set by the website owner (in this case, Anthony's Coal Fired Pizza) are called "first-party cookies." Cookies set by parties other than the website owner are called "third-party cookies." Third-party cookies enable third-party features or functionality to be provided on or through the website (such as advertising, interactive content, and analytics).

2.1 How Do Cookies Work?

When you visit our website at pizza-anthonyscoalfired.rest, our server sends a cookie to your browser. Your browser stores this cookie on your device. The next time you visit our website, your browser sends the cookie back to our server, which allows us to recognize your browser and remember information about your visit, such as your language preferences, items you may have added to a cart, or pages you have viewed.

Some cookies expire when you close your browser window (known as "session cookies"), while others remain on your device for a specified period or until you delete them (known as "persistent cookies").

In addition to cookies, we may also use other similar tracking technologies on our website, including:

  • Web Beacons (Pixel Tags): Small graphic images (also known as "pixel tags" or "clear GIFs") that may be included on our website and email messages. They allow us to count the number of users who have visited specific pages or opened emails.
  • Local Storage: A feature of web browsers that allows websites to store larger amounts of data on your device compared to cookies.
  • Session Storage: Similar to local storage, but the data is cleared when the browser session ends.
  • JavaScript Tags: Small pieces of code embedded in our website that help us collect information about how users interact with our site.
