Welcome to deweyspizza-eat.digital, the official digital platform for Dewey's Pizza. We are committed to being transparent about how we collect and use data related to your visits to our website. This Cookie Policy is designed to help you understand our practices regarding cookies and similar tracking technologies.
By continuing to use our website, you acknowledge that you have read and understood this Cookie Policy. Where required by applicable law — including the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) and the California Privacy Rights Act (CPRA) for California residents — we will seek your consent before placing non-essential cookies on your device.
This policy should be read alongside our Privacy Policy and Terms of Service, which together describe how Dewey's Pizza collects, uses, and protects your personal information.
2. What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files that are placed on your computer, smartphone, tablet, or other internet-connected device when you visit a website. They are widely used by website owners to make websites work more efficiently, provide reporting information, and deliver a more personalized experience to users.
Cookies are sent back to the originating website on each subsequent visit, or to another website that recognizes that cookie. Cookies are incredibly useful because they allow a website to recognize a user's device and remember certain information about your preferences or past actions.
2.1 How Do Cookies Work?
When you visit deweyspizza-eat.digital for the first time, our web server sends a small file to your browser, which stores it on your device. Every time you return to our website, your browser sends this cookie back to our server. This process allows us to recognize you, remember your preferences, and provide a smoother, more personalized browsing experience.
Cookies can be set by the website you are visiting (known as "first-party cookies") or by third-party services operating on that website (known as "third-party cookies"). Both types may be used on our website.
2.2 Types of Cookies by Duration
- Session Cookies: These are temporary cookies that remain on your device only for the duration of your visit to our website. They are deleted automatically when you close your browser. Session cookies help our website remember your actions during a single browsing session.
- Persistent Cookies: These cookies remain on your device after your browser is closed, until they expire or you delete them manually. Persistent cookies help our website recognize you as a returning visitor and remember your preferences across multiple visits.
