Last Updated: June 13, 2026
1. Introduction
Welcome to Pizza Inn ("we," "us," "our," or "the Company"). We operate the website pizzainn-eat.rest (the "Website") and are committed to being transparent about how we collect and use data related to your browsing experience. This Cookie Policy is designed to help you understand what cookies are, how we use them, and the choices available to you regarding their use.
This policy should be read alongside our Privacy Policy, which provides broader information about how we process personal data collected through our Website. Together, these documents form the complete framework of our data practices.
As a food service business operating in the United States, we are committed to complying with all applicable federal and state laws, including the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) as amended by the California Privacy Rights Act (CPRA), the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) Act, and any other applicable consumer protection regulations.
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 stored in your browser and allow websites to recognize your device on subsequent visits, remember your preferences, and improve your overall browsing experience.
Cookies serve many purposes. Some cookies are strictly necessary for a website to function correctly, while others help website owners understand how visitors interact with their site, deliver relevant advertisements, or remember user preferences such as language or region settings.
In addition to traditional cookies, we may also use similar tracking technologies such as:
- Web Beacons (Pixel Tags): Tiny graphic images embedded in web pages or emails that track whether a page has been viewed or an email has been opened.
- Local Storage: A browser-based storage method that allows websites to store data locally on your device beyond the scope of traditional cookies.
- Session Storage: Similar to local storage, but data is cleared when the browsing session ends.
- Tracking Pixels: Small pieces of code that help us measure the effectiveness of advertising campaigns.
Throughout this Cookie Policy, when we refer to "cookies," we mean all of the above technologies unless otherwise specified.
3. How Cookies Work
When you first visit pizzainn-eat.rest, our server sends a cookie to your browser, which then stores it on your device. The next time you visit our Website, your browser sends the cookie back to our server, allowing us to recognize your device and recall information about your previous visit.
Cookies can be classified based on their origin:
- First-Party Cookies: Set directly by Pizza Inn on our own domain (pizzainn-eat.rest). These are primarily used to enhance your experience on our Website.
- Third-Party Cookies: Set by external service providers (such as Google Analytics or advertising networks) that we have integrated into our Website. These cookies are governed by the privacy policies of the respective third parties.
Cookies can also be classified by their lifespan:
- Session Cookies: Temporary cookies that expire when you close your browser. They are used to maintain your session while you navigate the Website.
- Persistent Cookies: These remain on your device for a set period of time (or until you manually delete them). They are used to remember your preferences across multiple visits.
4. Types of Cookies We Use
We use four main categories of cookies on our Website. Below is a detailed description of each category and its purpose:
4.1 Essential / Strictly Necessary Cookies
These cookies are fundamental to the operation of our Website. Without them, certain features — such as adding items to your cart, logging into your account, or completing an online order — would not function correctly. Essential cookies do not require your consent under most privacy regulations, as they are strictly necessary for providing the services you have requested.
Examples of what essential cookies do on our Website:
- Maintain your session while you browse our menu and place an order
- Remember items you have added to your shopping cart
- Authenticate your login and protect your account security
- Ensure the website loads correctly and securely (HTTPS enforcement)
4.2 Analytics / Performance Cookies
Analytics cookies help us understand how visitors interact with our Website by collecting information about page views, time spent on pages, traffic sources, and similar data. This information is aggregated and anonymized, meaning it does not directly identify individual users. We use this data to improve the performance, content, and functionality of our Website.
We primarily use Google Analytics for this purpose. Google Analytics is a web analytics service provided by Google LLC, a company based in the United States. The data collected by Google Analytics may be transferred to and stored on servers located in the United States or other countries.
4.3 Functional / Preference Cookies
Functional cookies allow our Website to remember choices you make and provide enhanced, personalized features. For example, they may remember your preferred location, saved delivery addresses, or language preferences. These cookies improve your experience but are not essential to the basic operation of the site.
4.4 Advertising / Targeting Cookies
Advertising cookies are used to deliver advertisements that are relevant and meaningful to you. They track your browsing activity across websites to build a profile of your interests and serve targeted ads. We use advertising cookies in connection with platforms such as Google Ads and other advertising networks.
These cookies also help us measure the effectiveness of our advertising campaigns — for example, by tracking whether you visited our Website after seeing one of our ads online.
