1. Introduction

Welcome to Anthony's Coal Fired Pizza ("we," "us," or "our"). This Cookie Policy applies to our website located at anthonyspizzas.click and explains what cookies are, how we use them, the types of cookies we deploy, and how you can manage your cookie preferences.

We are committed to being transparent about the technologies we use and how they affect your online experience. This policy should be read alongside our Privacy Policy and Terms of Service, both of which are available on our website.

If you have any questions about this Cookie Policy, you may contact us at any time using the contact details 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 websites work more efficiently, to provide functionality, and to gather reporting information about how the website is used.

Cookies are created by the web server that hosts the website and delivered to your browser. Your browser stores the cookie locally. The next time you visit the same website, the browser sends the cookie back to the server, allowing the website to recognize your device and remember certain information about your previous interactions.

Cookies do not typically contain personally identifiable information on their own; however, personal information that we store about you may be linked to the information stored in and obtained from cookies. The information collected by cookies helps us improve your experience and the overall quality of our website and services.

2.1 First-Party vs. Third-Party Cookies

First-party cookies are set directly by Anthony's Coal Fired Pizza (the website you are visiting). They are used to remember your preferences and improve your experience on our site.

Third-party cookies are set by a domain other than anthonyspizzas.click. These cookies are typically placed by our service providers and advertising partners to help us analyze website traffic, measure the effectiveness of our marketing campaigns, and deliver relevant advertisements.

2.2 Session Cookies vs. Persistent Cookies

Session cookies are temporary cookies that are stored in your browser's memory only during your browsing session. They are automatically deleted when you close your browser. These cookies allow you to navigate our website without losing information as you move between pages.

Persistent cookies remain on your device for a set period of time after your browsing session ends, or until you delete them manually. They are used to recognize you when you return to our website and to remember your preferences.

3. How We Use Cookies

Anthony's Coal Fired Pizza uses cookies for a variety of purposes, including but not limited to:

  • Ensuring the website operates correctly and securely
  • Remembering your preferences and settings
  • Analyzing how visitors use our website so we can improve it
  • Understanding which pages, menu items, and promotions are most popular
  • Measuring the performance of our marketing and advertising campaigns
  • Delivering personalized advertisements based on your interests
  • Preventing fraud and enhancing the security of our website
  • Enabling social media features and integration

4. Types of Cookies We Use

We categorize the cookies we use into four main types: Essential, Functional, Analytics, and Advertising. Below is a detailed explanation of each category.

4.1 Essential Cookies

These cookies are strictly necessary for the website to function properly. Without these cookies, our website cannot operate, and services you have requested (such as online ordering or accessing secure areas) cannot be provided. Because these cookies are essential, they are always active and cannot be disabled through our cookie preference settings. You may disable them through your browser settings, but doing so will significantly impact the functionality of our website.

Essential cookies help with tasks such as navigating between pages, maintaining your session while you order food online, and ensuring the security of your browsing session.

4.2 Functional Cookies

Functional cookies allow our website to remember choices you make and provide enhanced, personalized features. For example, these cookies may remember your preferred location, your language settings, or details you have previously entered into forms so you do not need to re-enter them.

The information collected by functional cookies may be anonymized and does not track your browsing activity on other websites. If you do not allow these cookies, some or all of these services may not function properly.

4.3 Analytics Cookies

Analytics cookies help us understand how visitors interact with our website by collecting and reporting information anonymously. This data allows us to count visits and traffic sources, measure and improve the performance of our site, and learn which pages are most and least popular.

We use Google Analytics to collect this information. Google Analytics uses cookies to compile reports about website traffic and interactions, helping us improve our website and offer a better user experience. The data collected is aggregated and anonymized wherever possible.

4.4 Advertising and Targeting Cookies

Advertising cookies are used to deliver advertisements that are more relevant to you and your interests. They are also used to limit the number of times you see an advertisement and to 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 cookies to track conversions and measure the performance of our paid advertising campaigns. These cookies help us understand which ads are driving customers to visit our website and place orders.

As a business operating in the United States, Anthony's Coal Fired Pizza complies with applicable federal and state privacy laws, including the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) as amended by the California Privacy Rights Act (CPRA), and the Federal Trade Commission Act (FTC Act) which governs unfair or deceptive practices in commerce, including online privacy practices.
