This Cookie Policy forms part of our overall Privacy Policy and explains in detail what cookies are, which cookies we use on our website, why we use them, and how you can control or delete them.

This policy applies to all users who visit our website from the United States and is designed to comply with applicable U.S. laws and regulations, including the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) as amended by the California Privacy Rights Act (CPRA), and the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) Act guidelines on online tracking and consumer privacy.

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 and third parties to make websites work more efficiently, to improve user experience, and to provide reporting information.

Cookies set by the website owner (in this case, Mod 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 our website, such as advertising, interactive content, and analytics. The parties that set these third-party cookies can recognize your device both when it visits our website and when it visits certain other websites.

2.1 How Do Cookies Work?

When you visit modpizzafood.top for the first time, our server sends a cookie to your browser, which stores it on your device. The next time you visit our website, your browser sends the stored cookie back to our server, allowing us to recognize you and remember your preferences. Cookies do not typically contain personally identifiable information on their own, but when combined with other information we collect about you, they may be associated with your personal data.

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

8. Impact of Disabling Cookies

While you are free to restrict or block cookies set by our website, it is important to understand that doing so may have a significant impact on your experience when using our website. Specifically:

  • Disabling Essential Cookies: If you disable essential cookies, you may not be able to use core features of our website, including the ability to place food orders online, maintain your shopping cart, complete the checkout process, or log into any account features. These cookies are fundamental to the operation of our website.
  • Disabling Analytics Cookies: If you disable analytics cookies, we will be unable to collect aggregated data about how visitors use our website. This means we may be less able to identify and fix technical issues, optimize our content, or understand user behavior patterns. Your experience may not be directly affected, but our ability to improve the website over time will be limited.
  • Disabling Functional Cookies: If you disable functional cookies, certain features designed to enhance your experience may not work properly. For example, we may not be able to remember your location preferences, dietary filter settings, or other customizations you have applied to your browsing experience. You may need to re-enter this information each time you visit.
  • Disabling Advertising Cookies: If you disable advertising cookies, you will still see advertisements, but they will be less relevant to your interests. Additionally, you may see the same ads more frequently as we will not be able to track which ads you have already been shown. The effectiveness of our advertising campaigns will also be harder to measure.
