Cookie Policy
Last Updated: April 16, 2026
1. 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 improve user experience, and to provide reporting information about how the website is being used.
Cookies are created by the web server and sent to your browser, where they are stored for a specific period of time. Each time you revisit the website, your browser sends these cookies back to the server, allowing the website to recognize your device and remember certain information about your preferences or past actions.
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.
2. How Do Cookies Work?
When you visit anthonyspizzas.top for the first time, a cookie file is downloaded to your device. The next time you visit our site using the same device, the browser checks whether it holds a cookie that is relevant to our site and sends the information contained in that cookie back to our site. Our website then "recognizes" you and tailors what you see accordingly.
Cookies can be either session cookies or persistent cookies:
- Session Cookies: These are temporary cookies that expire and are automatically deleted when you close your browser. They are used to maintain your session as you navigate between pages on our website.
- Persistent Cookies: These cookies remain on your device for a set period of time, even after you close your browser. They are activated each time you visit the website that created that particular cookie. They help us recognize you as a returning visitor and remember your preferences.
3. Types of Cookies We Use
We use four main categories of cookies on anthonyspizzas.top. Each category serves a distinct purpose, and some are essential for the proper functioning of our website while others are optional.
3.1 Essential / Strictly Necessary Cookies
Without these cookies, services that are necessary for you to be able to use our website, such as accessing secure areas or completing food orders, cannot be provided. Because these cookies are strictly necessary to deliver the website, you cannot refuse them without impacting how our website functions.
3.2 Analytics and Performance Cookies
Analytics 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, how visitors move around the website, and how users interact with our menu pages, promotions, and online ordering features. All information these cookies collect is aggregated and therefore anonymous.
We primarily use Google Analytics to collect this data. Google Analytics uses cookies to collect information about how visitors use our website, and we use this information to compile reports and improve our site. Google Analytics may transfer this information to third parties where required to do so by law, or where such third parties process the information on Google's behalf.
You can opt out of Google Analytics by visiting: https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout
3.3 Functional Cookies
Functional cookies enable our 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. These cookies allow the website to remember choices you make (such as your preferred location, saved items in a cart, or language settings) and provide enhanced, more personal features.
If you do not allow these cookies, some or all of these features may not function properly when you visit anthonyspizzas.top.
3.4 Advertising and Targeting Cookies
Advertising cookies are used to make advertising messages 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 the website operator's permission.
We use Google Ads conversion tracking and remarketing cookies to help us understand which of our marketing campaigns are effective and to show you relevant advertisements across the internet. We may also use Facebook Pixel to track conversions from Facebook ads and to build targeted audiences for future ad campaigns.
