Last updated: April 4, 2026
1. Introduction
Welcome to Pizzana's Cookie Policy. This document is designed to provide you with clear, transparent, and comprehensive information about how we use cookies and similar tracking technologies when you visit our website at pizza-pizzana.rest. We are committed to being open and honest about our data practices in accordance with applicable United States privacy laws, including the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA), as amended by the California Privacy Rights Act (CPRA), and the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) Act governing fair and transparent consumer practices.
Cookies are a standard feature of most modern websites and play an important role in how our website functions, how we understand our visitors, and how we deliver relevant content and advertising. Whether you are visiting us to browse our menu, place an order, or simply learn more about Pizzana, this policy will help you understand exactly what information is collected through cookies and how you can control it.
Please read this policy carefully. If you have any questions, feel free to contact us at 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 websites to make them work more efficiently, provide a better user experience, and supply website owners with useful analytical information.
When you visit pizza-pizzana.rest, our server may send a cookie to your browser. Your browser stores this cookie in a designated folder. The next time you visit our website, your browser sends the cookie back to our server, allowing us to recognize you and remember your preferences or actions over time.
Cookies do not typically contain information that personally identifies you by itself, but personal information that we store about you may be linked to the information stored in and obtained from cookies. Understanding how cookies work helps you make informed choices about your privacy.
2.1 First-Party vs. Third-Party Cookies
First-party cookies are cookies set directly by Pizzana (i.e., by the pizza-pizzana.rest domain). These cookies are generally used to improve your experience on our website and to collect analytical data about how our website is used.
Third-party cookies are cookies set by organizations other than Pizzana. For example, when you use features powered by Google Analytics, Google Ads, Facebook, or other third-party services embedded in our website, those services may set their own cookies on your device. These third parties have their own privacy and cookie policies, and we encourage you to review those policies independently.
2.2 Session Cookies vs. Persistent Cookies
Session cookies are temporary cookies that are deleted from your device as soon as you close your browser. They allow our website to remember your actions during a single browsing session, such as items added to a shopping cart or login status.
Persistent cookies remain on your device after you close your browser for a set period of time. They help our website recognize you when you return, remember your preferences, and deliver more relevant content and advertising.
3. How Do We Use Cookies?
Pizzana uses cookies for several important purposes. These include ensuring the technical functionality of our website, understanding how visitors interact with our content, remembering user preferences, and delivering relevant advertising. Below, we break down the specific categories of cookies we use.
4. Categories of Cookies We Use
4.1 Essential / Strictly Necessary Cookies
These cookies are fundamental to the operation of our website. Without them, certain features — such as online ordering, account login, and secure payment processing — would not function properly. Essential cookies do not require your consent under most applicable laws because they are strictly necessary to provide the service you have requested. However, we believe in full transparency, so we include them here for your information.
Examples of what essential cookies do:
- Maintain your session while you browse our menu and place an order
- Remember items you have added to your cart
- Enable secure login to your customer account
- Support security features that protect against fraud and unauthorized access
- Store your cookie consent preferences
4.2 Analytics / Performance Cookies
Analytics cookies help us understand how visitors use our website. They collect information such as which pages you visit, how long you spend on each page, where you came from before landing on our site, and any error messages you may encounter. This information is aggregated and anonymized, meaning it cannot be used to identify you personally. We use this data to improve the performance, structure, and content of our website.
We use Google Analytics as our primary analytics provider. Google Analytics sets cookies on your device to collect statistical information about your visit. For more information about how Google uses this data, please visit https://policies.google.com/privacy.
4.3 Functional Cookies
Functional cookies allow our website to remember choices you have made and provide enhanced, more personalized features. For example, they may remember your preferred language, your location for delivery purposes, or your past orders to speed up future visits. While these cookies are not strictly essential, they significantly improve your experience on our website.
4.4 Advertising / Marketing 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 with our permission. They remember that you have visited our website and this information may be shared with other organizations such as advertisers.
We use Google Ads and may use Meta (Facebook) Pixel for advertising purposes. These tools help us measure the performance of our marketing campaigns and deliver targeted promotions to users who have shown interest in Pizzana.

6.4 Do Not Track (DNT) Signals
Some browsers include a "Do Not Track" (DNT) feature that signals to websites that you do not want your online activity to be tracked. As there is currently no universally accepted standard for responding to DNT signals, our website does not currently alter its behavior based on DNT signals. We will revisit this position as standards develop and evolve.
7. Impact of Disabling Cookies
While you are free to disable or restrict cookies, we want to be transparent about how doing so may affect your experience on pizza-pizzana.rest:
| Cookie Category | Impact of Disabling |
|---|---|
| Essential Cookies | Disabling these cookies will significantly impair website functionality. You may be unable to add items to your cart, complete orders, log in to your account, or use secure features of our website. We strongly advise keeping essential cookies enabled. |
| Analytics Cookies | Disabling analytics cookies means we will not be able to track your visit for statistical purposes. This does not affect your ability to use the website but limits our ability to understand how our site is used and make improvements accordingly. |
| Functional Cookies | Disabling functional cookies means that certain personalization features will not work. You may need to re-enter your preferences, delivery address, or other settings each time you visit. |
| Advertising Cookies | Disabling advertising cookies means that you will still see advertisements, but they will be less relevant to your interests. It does not prevent advertising altogether, and it does not affect your ability to use our website or place orders. |
