Cookie Policy

Last Updated: May 27, 2026

1. Introduction

Welcome to deweys-food.digital, the official website of Dewey's Pizza. This Cookie Policy explains how Dewey's Pizza ("we," "us," or "our") uses cookies and similar tracking technologies when you visit our website. This policy should be read alongside our Privacy Policy and Terms of Service, which together govern your use of our website and services.

By continuing to use our website, you consent to our use of cookies as described in this policy. You have the right to withdraw your consent at any time by adjusting your browser settings or using the opt-out tools described in this document. For residents of California, your rights under the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) and the California Privacy Rights Act (CPRA) are specifically addressed below.

If you have any questions about our use of cookies, please contact us at [email protected].

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. These files are created by the website's server and stored in your web browser. Each time you return to that website, your browser sends the cookie back to the server, allowing the site to recognize you and remember your preferences or actions over time.

Cookies serve a wide variety of purposes. Some cookies are essential for a website to function correctly — without them, features like shopping carts, login sessions, and form submissions would not work. Other cookies collect information about how visitors use a website, helping operators improve performance and user experience. Still others are used to deliver targeted advertising based on your browsing behavior.

2.1 How Do Cookies Work?

When you visit deweys-food.digital for the first time, our server sends a cookie to your browser. Your browser stores this cookie in a designated folder on your device. The cookie contains a unique identifier — a random string of letters and numbers — that allows our systems to recognize your browser on subsequent visits.

Cookies do not typically contain personally identifiable information on their own, but they can be linked to personal data we hold about you (for example, if you have created an account with us or placed an online order). When combined with other information, cookies may allow us or our third-party partners to identify you as an individual.

2.2 Session Cookies vs. Persistent Cookies

• Session Cookies: These are temporary cookies that exist only during your browsing session. They are automatically deleted from your device when you close your browser. Session cookies are commonly used to maintain your login status or to keep track of items in a shopping cart during a single visit.
• Persistent Cookies: These cookies remain on your device for a set period of time after your browsing session ends, or until you manually delete them. Persistent cookies are used to remember your preferences, recognize you on return visits, and deliver consistent advertising across multiple sessions.

2.3 First-Party vs. Third-Party Cookies

• First-Party Cookies: These are set directly by Dewey's Pizza (i.e., by the deweys-food.digital domain) and are primarily used to improve your experience on our site.
• Third-Party Cookies: These are set by external services and partners — such as Google Analytics, Google Ads, and Facebook — that provide functionality or advertising services on our site. Third-party cookies are subject to those companies' own privacy and cookie policies.

3. Types of Cookies We Use

Dewey's Pizza uses the following categories of cookies on our website. You can manage or disable non-essential cookies at any time using the methods described in Section 6 of this policy.

3.1 Strictly Necessary / Essential Cookies

These cookies are required for the basic functionality of our website and cannot be switched off in our systems. They are usually set only in response to actions you take, such as setting your privacy preferences, logging in, filling out forms, or placing an online order. Without these cookies, portions of our website will not function properly.

Because these cookies are strictly necessary to deliver the services you have requested, they do not require your prior consent under applicable law. However, you can block or delete them through your browser settings (see Section 6), although doing so may impair your ability to use our website.

3.2 Analytics and Performance Cookies

These cookies allow us to count website visits and traffic sources so we can measure and improve the performance of our site. They help us understand which pages are most popular, how visitors move around the site, and where they enter and exit. All information collected by these cookies is aggregated and therefore anonymous.

We use Google Analytics to provide this functionality. Google Analytics collects data such as your IP address (which is anonymized), browser type, operating system, referring URLs, pages visited, and time spent on our site. This data is processed by Google in accordance with their privacy policy.

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. Functional cookies may be used to remember your preferences (such as your preferred location or language), remember items in your cart between sessions, or maintain your login status.

If you disable these cookies, some or all of these features may not function properly, and certain areas of our website may not work as expected.

3.4 Advertising and Targeting Cookies

These cookies are set by our advertising partners and may be used to build a profile of your interests based on your browsing activity, both on our site and on other sites across the internet. They allow us and our partners to show you relevant advertisements, limit how many times you see an ad, and measure the effectiveness of our advertising campaigns.

We work with advertising platforms including Google Ads and Meta (Facebook) to deliver targeted advertising. These platforms may combine information collected by their cookies with other data they hold about you. The use of advertising cookies is subject to your consent and to the privacy policies of the respective platforms.

5. Legal Basis for Using Cookies

Under applicable United States law, including the Federal Trade Commission Act (FTC Act) and, where applicable, the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) as amended by the California Privacy Rights Act (CPRA), we are committed to transparency about our data collection practices.

• Strictly Necessary Cookies: We use these cookies based on our legitimate interest in providing a functioning website and on the contractual necessity of delivering services you have requested. No consent is required for these cookies.
• Analytics, Functional, and Advertising Cookies: We use these cookies based on your consent, which you provide by accepting cookies when prompted on our website. You may withdraw your consent at any time using the methods described in Section 6.

California Residents: If you are a California resident, you have specific rights under the CCPA/CPRA regarding the sale or sharing of your personal information, including data collected through advertising cookies.

8. Do Not Track Signals

Some browsers include a "Do Not Track" (DNT) feature that signals to websites that you do not want your online activity tracked. Because there is currently no uniform standard for interpreting DNT signals, our website does not currently alter its data collection and use practices in response to DNT signals. We will continue to monitor industry developments and update our practices accordingly.

9. Changes to This Cookie Policy

We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in the cookies we use, changes in applicable law, or changes in our business practices. When we make changes, we will update the "Last Updated" date at the top of this page. We encourage you to review this Cookie Policy periodically to stay informed about how we use cookies.

Where changes are material, we may also notify you more prominently, for example by displaying a notice on our homepage or by sending you an email if we have your contact information.
