By continuing to use our website, you consent to our use of cookies as described in this policy. If you do not agree to the use of cookies, you may adjust your browser settings accordingly or refrain from using our website.

This Cookie Policy should be read in conjunction with our Privacy Policy and Terms of Service, which are also available on our website.

2. What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files that are placed on your device — such as your computer, smartphone, or tablet — 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 analytical data about how the site is being used.

Cookies are sent back to the originating website on each subsequent visit, or to another website that recognizes that cookie. Cookies serve many different functions, such as remembering your preferences, keeping you logged in, understanding how you use the website, and enabling relevant advertising.

Cookies do not typically contain information that personally identifies you, but personal data that we store about you may be linked to the information stored in and obtained from cookies. Cookies are not harmful to your device and do not contain viruses or malware.

2.1 How Do Cookies Work?

When you first visit pizzasdions.digital, our web server sends a cookie to your browser, which stores it on your device. Each time you return to our website, your browser sends this cookie back to our server, allowing us to recognize your device and remember your preferences or activities. Cookies can be either session cookies — which expire when you close your browser — or persistent cookies — which remain on your device for a set period of time or until you manually delete them.

In addition to cookies, we may also use similar tracking technologies such as web beacons, pixels, and local storage objects. These technologies function similarly to cookies and allow us to monitor traffic patterns, measure the effectiveness of our marketing campaigns, and improve the overall user experience on our website.
