1. Introduction

Welcome to pizza-deweys.digital, the official website of Dewey's Pizza. We are committed to being transparent about the technologies we use to operate our website and deliver you the best possible online experience when you browse our menu, place orders, or simply learn more about us.

This Cookie Policy applies to all pages and services available through our website pizza-deweys.digital and should be read alongside our Privacy Policy. By continuing to use our website, you acknowledge the use of cookies as described in this document. If you do not agree to our use of cookies, you may disable them at any time using the methods described in this policy, though doing so may affect your experience on our site.

If you have any questions about this Cookie Policy, please contact us using the details provided at the end of this page.

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 more efficiently, remember your preferences, and provide reporting information about how the site is being used.

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

Cookies do not typically contain any personally identifiable information on their own, but they may be linked to personal data we hold about you if you have previously provided that information through our website (for example, when placing an online order or signing up for our newsletter).

2.1 First-Party vs. Third-Party Cookies

First-party cookies are set directly by Dewey's Pizza (i.e., by pizza-deweys.digital) and can only be read by our website. These are used primarily to improve your experience and remember your preferences.

Third-party cookies are set by external services that appear on our pages, such as Google Analytics or advertising networks. These cookies are governed by the privacy policies of the respective third parties, not by Dewey's Pizza.

2.2 Session vs. Persistent Cookies

Session cookies are temporary and are deleted from your device when you close your browser. They help our website remember what you have selected as you move from page to page within the same browsing session.

Persistent cookies remain on your device for a set period of time or until you manually delete them. They allow our website to remember your preferences and settings the next time you visit.

3. How We Use Cookies

Dewey's Pizza uses cookies for a variety of purposes, all aimed at providing you with a reliable, efficient, and personalized experience on our website. Specifically, we use cookies to:

  • Enable core functionality of the website, such as keeping you logged in or maintaining your shopping cart contents.
  • Remember your preferences, such as your language settings or previously viewed menu items.
  • Analyze how visitors interact with our website so we can improve our content, layout, and overall user experience.
  • Measure the effectiveness of our marketing and advertising campaigns.
  • Deliver relevant advertisements to you on other websites and platforms based on your browsing behavior on our site.
  • Prevent fraud and protect the security of our website and users.

4. Types of Cookies We Use

We organize the cookies used on pizza-deweys.digital into the following four categories:

4.1 Essential Cookies

These cookies are strictly necessary for our website to function properly. Without them, basic features like navigating the website, accessing secure areas, and completing an order cannot be provided. Because they are essential to the operation of the site, they cannot be disabled through our cookie preference settings.

Examples of what essential cookies do on our website include maintaining your session as you browse, keeping items in your order cart, and remembering your login status if you have a registered account.

4.2 Functional Cookies

Functional cookies allow our website to remember choices you make and provide enhanced, personalized features. For example, they may remember your preferred delivery location, your name for order personalization, or display preferences you have previously selected. The information collected by these cookies may be anonymized and cannot track your browsing activity on other websites.

4.3 Analytics Cookies

Analytics cookies help us understand how visitors interact with pizza-deweys.digital by collecting and reporting information anonymously. We use this data to improve the structure, content, and performance of our website. For example, we analyze which pages are most visited, how long visitors stay on each page, and where they come from (e.g., a search engine or a direct link).

We primarily use Google Analytics for this purpose. Google Analytics is a web analytics service provided by Google LLC. The data collected is transmitted to and stored on Google servers in the United States. Google may use this data in accordance with its own privacy policy, which can be reviewed at https://policies.google.com/privacy.

4.4 Advertising and Targeting Cookies

Advertising 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 and to help measure the effectiveness of our advertising campaigns. These cookies may be set by us or by third-party advertising networks with whom we partner.

These cookies track your visit to pizza-deweys.digital and other websites and use this information to build a profile of your interests. This profile may then be shared with third-party advertising platforms. We use Google Ads (formerly Google AdWords) and may also engage with Meta (Facebook/Instagram) advertising tools.
