1. Introduction

Welcome to Anthony's Coal Fired Pizza. We are committed to being transparent about how we collect and use data related to you. This Cookie Policy explains what cookies are, what types of cookies we use on anthonyspizzas.digital, how we use them, and how you can manage your cookie preferences.

This policy should be read alongside our Privacy Policy and Terms of Service, which provide additional information about our data practices. If you have any questions about this policy, please contact us using the 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-enabled device when you visit a website. They are widely used by website owners to make their websites work, or to work more efficiently, as well as to provide reporting information.

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. The parties that set these third-party cookies can recognize your computer both when it visits the website in question and also when it visits certain other websites.

Cookies do not typically contain any information that personally identifies a user, but personal information that we store about you may be linked to the information stored in and obtained from cookies. Cookies can be either session cookies or persistent cookies:

  • Session Cookies: These are temporary cookies that exist only during a browser session. They are deleted from your device when you close your browser.
  • Persistent Cookies: These remain on your device after the browser is closed and for a specified period of time. They are reactivated when you revisit the website that created them.

3. How Do Cookies Work?

When you visit anthonyspizzas.digital, our web server sends a cookie to your browser, which stores it on your device. The next time you visit our website, your browser sends that cookie back to our server. This allows us to recognize your device and remember certain information about your preferences or past actions.

Cookies can serve a variety of purposes, including:

  • Keeping you logged in to your account during a session
  • Remembering items you have added to a cart or your food preferences
  • Helping us understand how you use our website so we can improve it
  • Delivering advertisements relevant to your interests
  • Analyzing the performance and traffic of our website

4. Types of Cookies We Use

Anthony's Coal Fired Pizza uses the following categories of cookies on anthonyspizzas.digital:

4.1 Strictly Necessary / Essential Cookies

These cookies are essential for the proper functioning of our website. Without them, services you have asked for — such as browsing our menu, placing an online order, or accessing secure areas of the site — cannot be provided. These cookies do not gather information about you that could be used for marketing or tracking your internet browsing activity outside of our website.

Because these cookies are strictly necessary, they are placed on your device without your consent, as permitted under applicable law, including the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) Act guidelines applicable in the United States.

4.2 Performance and Analytics Cookies

These cookies collect information about how visitors use our website — for instance, which pages are visited most often and if visitors receive error messages from web pages. This information is used to improve how our website works. All information these cookies collect is aggregated and therefore anonymous.

We use Google Analytics to help us analyze website traffic and understand user behavior. Google Analytics collects information such as how often users visit our website, what pages they visit, and what other sites they used prior to arriving at our website.

4.3 Functional Cookies

These cookies allow our website to remember choices you make — such as your location, preferred language, or region — and provide enhanced, more personal features. They may also be used to provide services you have asked for, such as watching a video or commenting on a menu item. These cookies cannot track your browsing activity on other websites.

4.4 Advertising and Targeting Cookies

These cookies are used to deliver advertisements more relevant to you and your interests. They are also used to limit the number of times you see an advertisement as well as to help measure the effectiveness of advertising campaigns. They are usually placed by advertising networks with the website operator's permission. They remember that you have visited a website and this information is shared with other organizations such as advertisers. Quite often targeting or advertising cookies will be linked to site functionality provided by the other organization.

We use Google Ads conversion cookies and similar tools to track the effectiveness of our online advertising.

7. Impact of Disabling Cookies

While you have the right to disable or restrict cookies, please be aware that doing so may affect your experience on anthonyspizzas.digital. The following outlines potential impacts based on the type of cookies you disable:

Cookie Type Impact if Disabled
Essential Cookies Core website functions will not work correctly. You may be unable to place orders online, use the shopping cart, or log in to your account. We strongly advise keeping these cookies enabled.
Analytics Cookies We will be unable to collect data about how you use our website. This means we may not be able to improve our website and services as effectively based on user behavior. Your browsing experience will not be directly affected.
Functional Cookies Personalization features will not work. You may need to re-enter your preferences each time you visit, such as your preferred restaurant location. Some enhanced features may be unavailable.
Advertising Cookies You will still see advertisements, but they will be less relevant to your interests and browsing history. You may see the same ads repeatedly regardless of whether they are relevant to you.

8. Do Not Track Signals

Some browsers have a "Do Not Track" (DNT) feature that signals to websites that you do not want to have your online activities tracked. At this time, there is no uniform technology standard for recognizing and implementing DNT signals. As such, we do not currently respond to DNT browser signals or other mechanisms that automatically communicate your preference not to be tracked online. If a standard for DNT is adopted in the future, we will update this Cookie Policy accordingly.

9. California Residents — CCPA/CPRA Rights

If you are a resident of California, you have additional rights under the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) as amended by the California Privacy Rights Act (CPRA). Some of the cookies we use may constitute a "sale" or "sharing" of personal information as defined under the CCPA/CPRA, particularly advertising and targeting cookies that involve sharing data with third parties such as Google and Facebook for cross-context behavioral advertising.

As a California resident, you have the right to:

  • Opt out of the sale or sharing of your personal information
  • Know what personal information is being collected about you
  • Request deletion of your personal information
