Summary: This Cookie Policy explains how Pizza Luce uses cookies and similar tracking technologies on pizzaluces.digital. By continuing to use our website, you agree to the use of cookies as described in this policy.

1. Introduction

Welcome to Pizza Luce ("we," "us," or "our"). This Cookie Policy applies to our website located at pizzaluces.digital and explains what cookies are, how we use them, the types of cookies we deploy, and how you can manage your cookie preferences.

We are committed to being transparent about the data we collect and how it is used. This policy should be read alongside our Privacy Policy, which provides additional information about how we handle personal data collected through our website.

If you have any questions about this Cookie Policy, please contact us at [email protected].

2. What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files that are placed on your device (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 efficiently, to improve user experience, and to provide reporting information.

Cookies set by the website owner (in this case, Pizza Luce) 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 our website and when it visits certain other websites.

2.1 How Do Cookies Work?

When you visit pizzaluces.digital, our web server sends a cookie to your browser, which stores it as a small file on your device. Each time you return to our website, your browser sends this cookie back to the server, allowing us to recognize your device and remember your preferences or activity.

Cookies typically contain the following information:

The name of the domain that issued the cookie
A unique identifier (ID) assigned to your device or browser
An expiration date after which the cookie is automatically deleted
Various flags and values used by the issuing domain

2.2 Similar Tracking Technologies

In addition to cookies, we may use other similar tracking technologies, including:

Web Beacons (Pixel Tags): Tiny invisible images embedded in web pages or emails that track whether a page or email has been opened.
Local Storage: Browser-based storage that allows websites to store data locally on your device.
Session Storage: Temporary storage that is cleared when your browser session ends.
JavaScript Tags: Code snippets that collect data about how you interact with our website.

3. Why We Use Cookies

Pizza Luce uses cookies and similar tracking technologies for several important reasons:

To ensure our website functions correctly and securely
To remember your preferences and settings so you do not have to re-enter them each visit
To understand how visitors use our website so we can improve it
To deliver relevant advertising and promotional content
To measure the effectiveness of our marketing campaigns
To enable social media features and integrations
To comply with legal and regulatory obligations

4. Types of Cookies We Use

We categorize the cookies used on pizzaluces.digital into four main types:

4.1 Essential (Strictly Necessary) Cookies

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

Essential cookies do not require your consent under applicable law, including guidelines issued by the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) under the FTC Act, because they are necessary to deliver a service explicitly requested by the user. However, we still disclose their use in the interest of full transparency.

4.2 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, how visitors move around the site, and what content resonates most with our customers. All information collected by these cookies is aggregated and therefore anonymous.

We use Google Analytics to collect this data. Google Analytics is a web analytics service provided by Google LLC. The data generated about your use of our website is transmitted to and stored on Google servers in the United States.

4.3 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 language, your region, or your username, and provide enhanced, more personalized features.

4.4 Advertising and Targeting Cookies

These cookies are 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 advertising 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 use Google Ads to run advertising campaigns. The Google Ads conversion tracking cookie helps us understand how users interact with our ads and our website after clicking on one of our advertisements.

If you are a California resident, please note that certain uses of advertising cookies may constitute a "sale" or "sharing" of personal information under the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) as amended by the California Privacy Rights Act (CPRA). You have the right to opt out of such sale or sharing. Please see Section 7 for more details.

6.1 Browser Settings

Most web browsers allow you to control cookies through their settings. You can set your browser to refuse all or some browser cookies, or to alert you when websites set or access cookies. Below are links to cookie management instructions for the most popular browsers:

For mobile devices, please refer to your device manufacturer's documentation or your mobile browser's help section for instructions on how to manage cookies.

6.2 Opt-Out Tools for Third-Party Cookies

In addition to browser settings, you can use the following opt-out tools provided by third parties to manage how they collect and use your data:

Provider	Opt-Out Tool	URL
Google Analytics	Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on	https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout

6.3 Do Not Track (DNT) Signals

Some browsers include a "Do Not Track" (DNT) feature that signals to websites that you do not want to have your online activity tracked. Currently, there is no universally accepted standard for how websites should respond to DNT signals. As a result, our website does not currently alter its data collection and use practices in response to DNT signals. We will continue to monitor developments in this area and update our practices accordingly.

6.4 Global Privacy Control (GPC)

The Global Privacy Control (GPC) is a browser-level signal that communicates a user's preference to opt out of the sale or sharing of personal information. Under the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) as amended by the California Privacy Rights Act (CPRA), businesses must respect GPC signals from California residents. If you are a California resident and use a browser or extension that sends a GPC signal, we will treat this as a valid opt-out request for the sale or sharing of your personal information.

7. Impact of Disabling Cookies

While you have every right to restrict or disable cookies, doing so may affect your experience on pizzaluces.digital. Below is a summary of how disabling different types of cookies may impact your use of our website:

Cookie Type	Impact of Disabling
Essential Cookies	The website may not function properly. Core features such as online ordering, shopping cart functionality, secure login, and form submissions may be unavailable or broken.
Analytics Cookies	We will be unable to collect data about how visitors use our website. This limits our ability to improve website performance and user experience. Your browsing experience will not be directly affected.

Advertising Cookies	You will still see advertisements, but they will be less relevant to your interests. Disabling these cookies does not mean you will see fewer ads — only that the ads shown will be less personalized to you.
