Cookie Policy

Last Updated: April 17, 2026

1. Introduction

Welcome to Dewey's Pizza ("we," "us," or "our"). We operate the website deweyspizzas.digital and are committed to being transparent about how we collect and use data related to you. This Cookie Policy forms part of our broader Privacy Policy and explains in detail what cookies are, the types of cookies we use, why we use them, and how you can manage your cookie preferences.

This policy applies to all visitors, users, and customers who access or use our website. We encourage you to read this policy carefully. If you have any questions, please contact us using 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 website owners to make websites work more efficiently, improve user experience, and provide reporting information.

Cookies are created by the web server and sent to your browser, where they are stored locally. Each time you revisit the same website, your browser sends the cookie back to the server, allowing the website to recognize your device and remember certain information about your preferences or past actions.

Cookies do not typically contain personally identifiable information on their own, but when combined with other data, they may be used to identify you as an individual. We handle all such data in accordance with applicable United States privacy laws, including the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA), the California Privacy Rights Act (CPRA), and the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) Act.

2.1 First-Party vs. Third-Party Cookies

First-party cookies are set directly by Dewey's Pizza (i.e., by deweyspizzas.digital) when you visit our website. These cookies are only readable by our website.

Third-party cookies are set by a domain other than our website — for example, by analytics providers like Google Analytics or advertising networks like Google Ads. These third parties may use cookies to track your browsing activity across multiple websites.

2.2 Session vs. Persistent Cookies

Session cookies are temporary and are deleted from your device as soon as you close your browser. They help our website remember what you selected on the previous page, so you don't have to re-enter information.

Persistent cookies remain on your device for a set period of time specified in the cookie. They are activated every time you visit the website that created that particular cookie.

3. How Do Cookies Work?

When you first visit deweyspizzas.digital, our server sends one or more cookies to your browser. Your browser stores these files. On subsequent visits, your browser sends the stored cookies back to our server, which recognizes your device and retrieves the stored information.

Some cookies are essential for the basic functioning of our website — for example, maintaining your shopping cart session when you order a pizza online. Others help us understand how visitors use our site, enabling us to improve our content, menu offerings, and promotional campaigns.

We also use cookies placed by trusted third-party service providers, such as Google, to help us analyze website traffic and deliver relevant advertisements to users who have previously visited our website.

4. Types of Cookies We Use

Dewey's Pizza uses the following categories of cookies on our website:

4.1 Strictly Necessary / Essential Cookies

These cookies are essential for the operation of our website. Without these cookies, services such as online ordering, account login, and shopping cart functionality would not work. These cookies do not gather any information about you that could be used for marketing purposes, nor do they remember where you have been on the internet.

Because these cookies are strictly necessary for the website to function, they cannot be disabled through our cookie preferences tool. You can still block them through your browser settings, but this may impact your ability to use certain features of our website.

4.2 Performance / Analytics Cookies

These cookies collect information about how visitors use our website — for instance, which pages visitors go to most often and whether they get error messages from web pages. All information collected by these cookies is aggregated and therefore anonymous. We use this data solely to improve how our website performs.

We use Google Analytics to help us understand visitor behavior and improve our website and marketing strategies. Google Analytics uses cookies to collect information such as how often users visit the site, what pages they visit, and what other sites they used prior to coming to our website.

4.3 Functional Cookies

These cookies allow the website to remember choices you make — such as your preferred language, your delivery address, or your preferred pizza toppings — to provide a more personalized and enhanced experience. They may also be used to provide services you have asked for, such as watching a video or commenting on a blog post.

The information collected by these cookies may be anonymized and cannot track your browsing activity on other websites.

4.4 Advertising / Targeting Cookies

These cookies are used to deliver advertisements more relevant to you and your interests. They are also used to limit the number of times you see an advertisement, as well as help measure the effectiveness of an advertising campaign. They are usually placed by advertising networks with the website operator's permission. They remember that you have visited a website, and this information may be shared with other organizations, such as advertisers.

We use Google Ads (formerly Google AdWords) to run targeted advertising campaigns. These cookies help us track conversions from our ads and serve relevant ads to users who have visited our site previously.

5. Specific Cookies We Use

Note: The cookies listed above represent those currently in use on our website. As our site evolves and we add or remove third-party services, this list may be updated. We recommend checking this page periodically for updates.

9. Do Not Track (DNT) Signals

Some web browsers offer a "Do Not Track" (DNT) setting that sends a signal to websites requesting that your browsing not be tracked. Currently, there is no universally agreed-upon standard for how websites should respond to DNT signals. As such, our website does not currently alter its data collection practices in response to DNT signals. However, you may use the opt-out tools described in Section 6 to limit third-party tracking.

We will continue to monitor developments regarding DNT standards and update our practices accordingly.
