Welcome to Pizza Factory ("we," "us," or "our"). This Cookie Policy explains how we use cookies and similar tracking technologies when you visit our website at factorypizza.digital. This policy is designed to help you understand what cookies are, why we use them, and how you can control their use.

We are committed to being transparent about the data we collect and how we use it. This Cookie Policy should be read alongside our Privacy Policy and Terms of Service, which together govern your use of our website and services.

2. What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files that are placed on your computer, tablet, smartphone, or other internet-enabled device when you visit a website. These files are stored in your web browser and allow websites to recognize your device and remember certain information about your visit, such as your preferences, settings, and browsing activity.

Cookies serve many functions. Some are essential to make a website work properly, while others help website owners understand how visitors interact with their site. Cookies can also be used to deliver personalized advertisements and to remember your preferences for future visits.

2.1 How Do Cookies Work?

When you visit factorypizza.digital, our web server sends a cookie to your browser, which stores it on your device. On subsequent visits, your browser sends that cookie back to our server, allowing us to recognize you and recall your previous interactions. This process helps us provide you with a more seamless and personalized browsing experience.

Cookies can be categorized in two primary ways:

• Session Cookies: These are temporary cookies that exist only during a single browsing session. They are automatically deleted from your device once you close your browser.
• Persistent Cookies: These cookies remain on your device for a set period of time or until you manually delete them. They are activated each time you visit the website that created them.

2.2 First-Party vs. Third-Party Cookies

• First-Party Cookies: These are cookies set directly by Pizza Factory when you visit factorypizza.digital. We use these cookies to improve your experience on our website.
• Third-Party Cookies: These are cookies set by external services and partners (such as Google Analytics, Google Ads, and social media platforms) that we have integrated into our website. Third-party cookies are governed by the privacy policies of the respective third-party providers.

These cookies track things like how many people visit our site, which pages are most popular, and how long visitors spend on each page.

We use Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google LLC, to collect this information. The data collected is aggregated and anonymized, so it does not identify any individual visitor. This information helps us optimize the content and structure of our website to better serve our customers.

These cookies may be set by us or by third-party providers whose services we have integrated into our pages.

• Store your delivery address information to make ordering faster and more convenient.
• Enable social media sharing features on our pages.

3.4 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 help measure the effectiveness of advertising campaigns. These cookies are usually placed by advertising networks, such as Google Ads, with the website operator's permission.

These cookies remember that you have visited our website and may share this information with other organizations, such as advertisers. As a result, you may see advertisements for Pizza Factory when you visit other websites or use social media platforms.

We participate in the Google Ads program and use Google's advertising cookies to track conversions and to serve targeted advertisements to users who have previously visited our website (remarketing).

8. Your Rights Under U.S. Privacy Law

Depending on your state of residence, you may have specific rights regarding the use of cookies and the collection of your personal data. Under the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) and the California Privacy Rights Act (CPRA), California residents have the right to:

9. Do Not Track Signals

Some web browsers include a "Do Not Track" (DNT) feature that sends a signal to websites requesting that your browsing activity not be tracked. At this time, there is no universally accepted standard for how websites should respond to DNT signals. As a result, our website does not currently respond to DNT signals. However, we remain committed to providing you with choices about how your data is used through the opt-out tools described in Section 5 of this policy.

We will continue to monitor developments in DNT technology and standards and may update this policy if a universally accepted standard is established.
