Welcome to dionspizza-fresh.rest, the official website of Dions ("we," "us," or "our"). We are committed to being transparent about how we collect and use data related to your visit. This Cookie Policy is designed to help you understand what cookies are, how we use them, what types of cookies we deploy on our website, and how you can manage your cookie preferences.

This policy applies to all pages and services available through dionspizza-fresh.rest and should be read in conjunction with our Privacy Policy and Terms of Service. If you have any questions about this Cookie Policy, please contact us using the details provided at the end of this document.

We operate in the United States and comply with applicable federal and state laws regarding online tracking, digital privacy, and consumer protection, including the Federal Trade Commission Act (FTC Act), the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA), and the California Privacy Rights Act (CPRA) where applicable.

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 more efficiently and to provide reporting information. Cookies allow the website to recognize your device and remember certain information about your preferences or actions over time.

Cookies do not typically contain personally identifiable information by themselves. However, the personal information we store about you may be linked to the information stored in and obtained from cookies. Cookies are created by the web server and stored on the user's device for a variable amount of time depending on the type of cookie.

2.1 How Do Cookies Work?

When you visit our website at dionspizza-fresh.rest, our web server sends a cookie to your browser. Your browser stores this cookie on your device. The next time you visit our website, your browser sends the cookie back to our server, which allows us to recognize your device and remember your preferences.

Some cookies are set by us directly (called "first-party cookies"), while others are set by third-party services we use, such as Google Analytics or advertising partners (called "third-party cookies"). Each cookie has a name, a value, and an expiration date that determines how long it remains on your device.

2.2 Types of Cookie Storage

Session Cookies: These are temporary cookies that are erased when you close your browser. They are used to maintain your session while you navigate our website.
Persistent Cookies: These cookies remain on your device for a set period of time or until you delete them manually. They help us recognize you as a returning visitor and remember your preferences across multiple visits.

3. Similar Tracking Technologies

In addition to cookies, we may also use other similar tracking technologies on our website, including:

Web Beacons (Pixel Tags): Tiny invisible images or code embedded in web pages or emails that help us track user behavior and email open rates.
Local Storage: A method of storing data in your browser that persists even after you close the browser window.
JavaScript Tags: Small pieces of code embedded on our site that collect information about how you interact with our website.
Device Fingerprinting: A method of identifying a device based on its unique configuration characteristics.

For the purposes of this Cookie Policy, all references to "cookies" include these similar tracking technologies unless otherwise specified.

4. Types of Cookies We Use

We use four main categories of cookies on dionspizza-fresh.rest. Below is a detailed explanation of each category:

4.1 Essential / Strictly Necessary Cookies

These cookies are absolutely necessary for our website to function properly. Without these cookies, services you have asked for — such as placing an online order, accessing secure areas of the website, or using the shopping cart — cannot be provided. These cookies do not collect information about you that could be used for marketing purposes.

Because these cookies are strictly necessary for the website to function, they cannot be disabled through our cookie management tools. You can block them by changing your browser settings, but this may prevent certain parts of the website from working correctly.

4.2 Analytics / 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 and see how visitors move around the site. All information collected by these cookies is aggregated and therefore anonymous.

We primarily use Google Analytics for this purpose. 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.

4.3 Functional Cookies

These cookies enable enhanced functionality and personalization on our website. 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. These cookies remember choices you make, such as your preferred language, your location, and other customizable elements of the website.

4.4 Advertising / Targeting Cookies

These cookies may be set through our website by our advertising partners, including Google Ads and Meta (Facebook). They may be used by those companies to build a profile of your interests and show you relevant advertisements on other websites. 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.

Analytics Cookies	We will not be able to collect data on how you use our website. This means we cannot identify and fix problems or improve our website based on user behavior. Your browsing experience will otherwise remain unaffected.
