1. Introduction

Welcome to Pizza Luce ("we," "us," or "our"). This Cookie Policy explains how we use cookies and similar tracking technologies on our website pizzaluce-meal.digital (the "Website"). This policy is designed to help you understand what cookies are, why we use them, and how you can control or manage them.

We are committed to protecting your privacy and ensuring transparency about the data we collect. This Cookie Policy should be read alongside our Privacy Policy, which provides further details about how we collect, use, and protect your personal information. Together, these documents form our complete approach to data privacy and user transparency.

If you have any questions about our use of cookies, please contact us using the contact details provided at the end of this policy.

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. These files are stored in your browser and are sent back to the originating website each time you revisit it, or to any other website that recognizes that cookie.

Cookies serve many different purposes. Some cookies are essential for a website to function properly, while others help website owners understand how users interact with their site, remember user preferences, or deliver targeted advertisements.

Cookies generally do not contain any information that personally identifies a user, but personal information that we store about you may be linked to the information stored in and obtained from cookies. Cookies do not damage your device or files, and most web browsers allow some control over cookies through browser settings.

2.1 Types of Cookies by Source

  • First-Party Cookies: These are set directly by our Website and are used to improve your experience on our site. They are only readable by our Website.
  • Third-Party Cookies: These are set by third-party services that appear on our pages, such as Google Analytics, Google Ads, or social media platforms. These third parties may use cookies to collect information about your online activities across different websites.

2.2 Types of Cookies by Duration

  • Session Cookies: These are temporary cookies that are deleted from your device when you close your browser. They are used to maintain your session while you navigate our Website.
  • Persistent Cookies: These remain on your device for a specified period or until you manually delete them. They are used to remember your preferences and settings on return visits.

3. Categories of Cookies We Use

We use four main categories of cookies on our Website. Each category serves a different purpose, and we describe them in detail below.

3.1 Strictly Necessary / Essential Cookies

These cookies are essential for the proper functioning of our Website. Without them, certain features and services would not be available. Essential cookies do not require your consent under applicable privacy laws because they are strictly necessary to provide the service you have requested. They are typically used for purposes such as:

  • Maintaining your session while you browse or place an order
  • Remembering items you have added to your cart
  • Ensuring the security of your interactions with our Website
  • Enabling load balancing to ensure consistent Website performance

3.2 Analytics and Performance Cookies

Analytics cookies help us understand how visitors interact with our Website by collecting and reporting information anonymously. This information allows us to improve the structure, content, and performance of our Website. For example, analytics cookies help us understand:

  • Which pages are visited most frequently
  • How users navigate through our Website
  • Where users leave or abandon the site
  • How long users spend on individual pages
  • Technical errors that users encounter

We primarily use Google Analytics for this purpose. Google Analytics collects data anonymously and reports website trends without identifying individual visitors. You can opt out of Google Analytics at any time (see Section 6 for opt-out options).

3.3 Functional Cookies

Functional cookies allow our Website to remember choices you make and provide enhanced, personalized features. These cookies may be set by us or by third-party providers whose services we have added to our pages. Examples of information stored by functional cookies include:

  • Your preferred language or region settings
  • Your login status and account preferences
  • Customization of website layout or content
  • Previously viewed menu items or order history

If you disable functional cookies, some or all of these features may not work correctly, and your Website experience may be less personalized.

3.4 Advertising and Targeting 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 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 cookies to track conversions and serve relevant ads to users who have previously visited our Website. We may also use Facebook Pixel or similar tools to reach our customers through social media advertising platforms.

These cookies remember that you have visited a website and this information is shared with other organizations, such as advertisers. Advertising cookies often link your browsing activity across multiple websites.
