1. Introduction
Welcome to Mod Pizza. We are committed to being transparent about how we collect and use data related to you. This Cookie Policy provides detailed information about how and when we use cookies on our website located at modpizza-eat.top.
This Cookie Policy should be read alongside our Privacy Policy and Terms of Service, which provide additional context about how we handle your personal information. Together, these documents describe our full approach to data collection and privacy.
By accessing or using our website, you acknowledge that you have read and understood this Cookie Policy. If you do not agree to our use of cookies as described in this policy, you should adjust your browser settings accordingly or refrain from using our website.
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 their websites work, or to work more efficiently, as well as to provide reporting information.
Cookies are created by the web server and sent to your browser, where they are stored. The server can retrieve and read cookies each time you visit the website. This allows 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, 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 the website, such as advertising, interactive content, and analytics. The parties that set these third-party cookies can recognize your computer both when it visits the website in question and also when it visits certain other websites.
2.1 How Do Cookies Work?
When you first visit our website at modpizza-eat.top, a cookie file is downloaded to your device. Every time you revisit our site, your browser sends the cookie back to our server. This allows us to identify your device, recognize returning visitors, and recall your preferences and settings. Cookies can store a variety of information, including your language preferences, items in a shopping cart, login status, and how you interact with our website.
In addition to cookies, we may also use similar tracking technologies such as web beacons (also known as "pixel tags" or "clear GIFs"), which are tiny graphics files that contain a unique identifier enabling us to recognize when someone has visited our website or opened an email that we have sent them. We may also use local storage objects (LSOs), often referred to as "Flash cookies," and other technologies that function similarly to cookies.
3. Types of Cookies We Use
We use several different types of cookies on our website. Understanding these categories will help you make informed decisions about your cookie preferences:
3.1 Strictly Necessary / Essential Cookies
These cookies are essential for the operation of our website and cannot be switched off in our systems. They are usually only set in response to actions made by you which amount to a request for services, such as setting your privacy preferences, logging in, or filling in forms. Without these cookies, services you have asked for cannot be provided.
These cookies do not store any personally identifiable information beyond what is necessary for the core function of the website. You can set your browser to block or alert you about these cookies, but some parts of the website may not work as a result. These cookies are typically session cookies, meaning they are deleted when you close your browser.
3.2 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 to know which pages are the most and least popular and see how visitors move around the site. All information these cookies collect is aggregated and therefore anonymous. If you do not allow these cookies, we will not know when you have visited our site, and will not be able to monitor its performance.
We use Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google LLC, to help us understand how visitors use our website. Google Analytics uses cookies to collect information such as how often users visit the site, what pages they visit when they do, and what other sites they used prior to coming to our site.
3.3 Functional Cookies
These cookies enable the 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. If you do not allow these cookies, then some or all of these services may not function properly. Functional cookies remember choices you make, such as your preferred language or region, to provide a more personalized experience.
3.4 Advertising and Targeting Cookies
These cookies may be 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 advertisements on other sites. They do not store directly 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 cookies to measure the effectiveness of our online advertising campaigns. These cookies help us track conversions, meaning whether a person who clicked on our ad subsequently completed a desired action on our website, such as ordering food or signing up for our newsletter.
