1. Introduction

Welcome to Pizzana's Cookie Policy. This document is designed to help you understand what cookies are, how we use them, and what choices you have regarding their use. As a food business operating in the United States, we are committed to being transparent about how we collect and use data related to your browsing experience on our website.

We use cookies and similar tracking technologies to enhance your experience on our website, analyze how our site is used, personalize content, and deliver relevant advertising. This policy works in conjunction with our Privacy Policy and Terms of Service, and together these documents govern your use of our website and services.

This Cookie Policy applies to all pages and services available through pizzana-piz.click. If you have any questions about our use of cookies, please contact us using the information provided at the end of this document.

2. What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files that are placed on your computer, smartphone, tablet, or other internet-connected device when you visit a website. They are widely used by website owners to make their websites work more efficiently, provide a better user experience, and gather information about how visitors interact with the site.

Cookies are stored locally on your device and are sent back to the originating website on each subsequent visit, or to any other website that recognizes that cookie. They allow the website to remember your actions and preferences over a period of time, so you do not have to keep re-entering them whenever you return to the site or browse from one page to another.

2.1 How Do Cookies Work?

When you visit our website, our server sends a small file to your browser, which stores it on your device. Each cookie contains a unique identifier — a string of letters and numbers — that allows the website to recognize your browser the next time you visit. Cookies can contain various types of information, including:

The pages you have visited on our website
Your login or session information
Your preferences and settings
Items you have added to a shopping cart or order form
Information about your device, browser type, and IP address
The date and time of your visits

2.2 First-Party vs. Third-Party Cookies

Cookies can be categorized as either first-party or third-party cookies:

First-Party Cookies: These are cookies set directly by our website (pizzana-piz.click). They are primarily used to ensure the website functions correctly and to remember your preferences.
Third-Party Cookies: These are cookies set by external services or platforms that provide features on our website, such as analytics tools, advertising networks, and social media platforms. These third parties may collect information about your online activities across different websites.

2.3 Session vs. Persistent Cookies

Session Cookies: These are temporary cookies that are deleted from your device when you close your browser. They are used to maintain your session while you browse our website.
Persistent Cookies: These cookies remain on your device for a specified period or until you delete them manually. They allow the website to remember your preferences and settings for future visits.

3. Types of Cookies We Use

We use four main categories of cookies on our website. Below is a detailed explanation of each category and the specific purposes for which we use them.

3.1 Essential Cookies

Essential cookies are strictly necessary for our website to function properly. Without these cookies, certain features of our website would not work, and you would not be able to use our services effectively. These cookies do not collect any personal information that could be used for marketing purposes. Because they are strictly necessary, essential cookies are always active and cannot be disabled through our cookie consent tool.

Essential cookies help us:

Maintain your session while you navigate through the website
Remember items you have added to your order
Ensure the security of your connection to our website
Enable you to complete transactions and place orders

3.2 Analytics Cookies

Analytics cookies help us understand how visitors interact with our website by collecting and reporting information anonymously. These cookies allow us to count page 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. If you do not allow these cookies, we will not know when you have visited our site and will not be able to monitor its performance. We use Google Analytics to collect this type of information.

3.3 Functional Cookies

Functional cookies enable our website to provide enhanced functionality and personalization. They may be set by us or by third-party providers whose services we have added to our pages. These cookies allow us to remember choices you make, such as your language preference, your location, and your login details. They may also be used to provide services you have requested, such as watching a video or using a live chat function.

If you do not allow these cookies, some or all of these services may not function properly, and your experience on our website may be less personalized.

3.4 Advertising and Marketing Cookies

Advertising cookies are used to deliver advertisements that are relevant and engaging to you and your interests. They are also used to limit the number of times you see an advertisement and help measure the effectiveness of advertising campaigns. These cookies are usually placed by advertising networks with our permission. They remember that you have visited a website and this information is shared with other organizations such as advertisers.

We use Google Ads and may use other advertising platforms to display targeted advertisements to users who have visited our website. These cookies may track your browsing habits across multiple websites to build a profile of your interests.

7. Impact of Disabling Cookies

While you have the right to disable or manage cookies, please be aware that doing so may have a significant impact on your experience when using our website. Below is a summary of the potential consequences of disabling each category of cookies:

Cookie Category	Impact of Disabling
Essential Cookies	Our website may not function properly. You may be unable to place orders, maintain your shopping cart, or complete transactions. Core website functionality will be impaired.
Analytics Cookies	We will be unable to track website performance and understand how visitors use our site. This may limit our ability to improve the website experience for all users. Your individual experience will not be significantly affected.

Some browsers include a "Do Not Track" (DNT) feature that sends a signal to websites requesting that your browsing activity not be tracked.

However, you can use the cookie management tools and opt-out links described in this policy to limit tracking of your activities.
