Cookie Policy

Effective Date: April 2, 2026  |  Last Updated: April 2, 2026

1. About This Policy

This Cookie Policy applies to the website pizz-anthonys.rest operated by Anthony's Coal Fired Pizza (referred to in this document as "we," "us," or "our"). This policy should be read alongside our Privacy Policy and Terms of Service, both of which are available on our website.

By continuing to use our website, you acknowledge that you have read and understood this Cookie Policy. Where applicable law requires your consent before we place non-essential cookies on your device, we will request that consent via a cookie consent banner displayed on your first visit.

We are committed to being transparent about the technologies we use. If you have questions about how we use cookies, 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 more efficiently, to provide a better user experience, and to report information to website operators.

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 device both when it visits the website in question and also when it visits certain other websites.

2.1 How Do Cookies Work?

When you visit a website, your browser sends a request to the web server. If the site uses cookies, the server responds by sending a cookie file to your browser, which stores it on your device. On subsequent visits to the same website, your browser sends the stored cookie back to the server, allowing the site to recognize your device and remember information about your previous visit — such as your language preferences, items in a shopping cart, or login status.

Cookies can be session cookies, which are temporary and deleted when you close your browser, or persistent cookies, which remain on your device for a specified period of time or until you delete them manually.

2.2 Similar Technologies

In addition to cookies, we may use other similar technologies such as:

  • Web Beacons (Pixel Tags): Tiny graphic images embedded in web pages or emails that track whether a page was accessed or an email was opened.
  • Local Storage: Similar to cookies but capable of storing larger amounts of data on your device without an expiry date.
  • Session Storage: Stores data for the duration of a single browser session and is deleted when the tab or browser is closed.
  • SDKs (Software Development Kits): Code libraries that may collect information about your device and usage in mobile or web applications.

3. Types of Cookies We Use

We categorize the cookies used on pizz-anthonys.rest into four main types:

3.1 Strictly Necessary (Essential) Cookies

These cookies are required for the website to function properly and cannot be switched off in our systems. They are usually set only in response to actions made by you, such as setting your privacy preferences, logging in, or filling out forms. Without these cookies, services you have asked for — such as accessing secure areas of the website — cannot be provided.

Because these cookies are essential to the operation of the website, they do not require your consent under applicable law. You can set your browser to block or alert you about these cookies, but some parts of the website may then not work properly.

3.2 Analytics and Performance Cookies

These cookies allow us to count visits and traffic sources so we can measure and improve the performance of our website. They help us understand which pages are the most and least popular, and see how visitors move around the site. All information these cookies collect is aggregated and therefore anonymous. If you do not allow these cookies, we will not know when you have visited our website and will not be able to monitor its performance.

We use Google Analytics to collect this data. Google Analytics is a web analytics service provided by Google LLC. For more information on how Google uses data collected through these cookies, visit: https://policies.google.com/privacy.

3.3 Functional Cookies

These cookies enable the website to provide enhanced functionality and personalization. They may be set by us or by third-party providers whose services we have added to our pages. If you do not allow these cookies, some or all of these services may not function properly. Examples include remembering your location preferences for finding the nearest restaurant, remembering your menu selections, or saving your language/display settings.

3.4 Advertising and Targeting Cookies

These cookies may be set through our website by our advertising partners. They may be used by those companies to build a profile of your interests and show you relevant advertisements on other websites. They do not directly store personal information but are based on uniquely identifying your browser and internet device. If you do not allow these cookies, you will experience less targeted advertising. We may use Google Ads and similar platforms to serve relevant promotions to users who have visited our site.

6. Impact of Disabling Cookies

While you are free to manage your cookie preferences, it is important to understand that disabling certain types of cookies may affect your experience on our website. The following summarizes the potential impact:

Cookie Type Impact of Disabling
Essential Cookies Core website functionality may break. You may not be able to submit contact forms, access secure pages, or use certain interactive features. We strongly recommend keeping these enabled.
Analytics Cookies We will be unable to collect aggregated data about how visitors use our website. This means we cannot effectively improve our website's performance, content, or user experience. Your browsing will not be directly impacted, but our ability to enhance the site will be limited.
Functional Cookies Personalized features such as saved location preferences, language settings, and customized menu displays will not work. You may need to re-enter preferences each time you visit.
Advertising Cookies You will still see advertisements, but they will be less relevant to your interests. You may see the same generic ads repeatedly rather than content tailored to your preferences and browsing history.

7. California Privacy Rights (CCPA/CPRA)

If you are a resident of California, the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) as amended by the California Privacy Rights Act (CPRA) grants you additional rights regarding your personal information, which may be collected through cookies and similar technologies. These rights include:

  • The right to know what personal information is being collected about you through cookies and how it is used or shared.
  • The right to opt out of the sale or sharing of your personal information. Certain advertising cookies may constitute the "sharing" of personal information under California law. You can exercise this right by clicking "Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information" in our website footer.

  • The right to non-discrimination for exercising your privacy rights.
