Welcome to dionspizzeria.click, operated by Dions ("we," "us," or "our"). This Cookie Policy explains what cookies are, how we use them on our website, what types of cookies we deploy, and how you can manage your cookie preferences.

This policy applies to all visitors and users of our website located at dionspizzeria.click. We are committed to being transparent about our data collection practices, in compliance with applicable United States federal and state privacy laws, including the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA), the California Privacy Rights Act (CPRA), and the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) Act.

Please read this Cookie Policy carefully. If you have any questions, you may contact us using the information provided at the end of this document.

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, provide a better user experience, and deliver reporting information.

Cookies are sent back to the originating website on each subsequent visit, or to another website that recognizes that cookie. Cookies do not typically contain personally identifiable information on their own, but they can be linked to personal data that we or third parties hold about you.

2.1 How Do Cookies Work?

When you first visit dionspizzeria.click, our server sends a cookie to your browser. Your browser stores the cookie as a small file on your device. On your next visit, your browser sends the cookie back to our server, allowing us to recognize your device and recall your preferences or behavior from previous visits.

Cookies can be set by the website you are visiting ("first-party cookies") or by third-party services that appear on that page ("third-party cookies"). Both types can serve various purposes, from keeping you logged in to tracking your browsing behavior for advertising purposes.

2.2 Cookie Lifetime

Cookies can be categorized based on their lifespan:

  • Session Cookies: These are temporary cookies that are deleted from your device when you close your web browser. They help us track your movements from page to page within a single browsing session.
  • Persistent Cookies: These remain on your device for a set period or until you manually delete them. They allow our website to remember your preferences across multiple visits.

3. Why Do We Use Cookies?

At Dions, we use cookies for a variety of important reasons:

  • To ensure our website functions correctly and securely
  • To remember your preferences and settings when you return to our site
  • To understand how visitors interact with our website so we can improve it
  • To display relevant promotions, menu items, and special offers
  • To measure the effectiveness of our marketing and advertising campaigns
  • To facilitate online ordering and checkout processes

4. Types of Cookies We Use

We categorize the cookies used on dionspizzeria.click into four main types:

4.1 Essential / Strictly Necessary Cookies

These cookies are absolutely necessary for the website to function properly. They enable core features such as security, network management, and accessibility. You cannot opt out of these cookies as the website cannot function without them. These cookies do not store any personally identifiable information.

Essential cookies help with tasks such as:

  • Maintaining your session as you navigate between pages
  • Processing online orders and payments securely

4.2 Analytics / Performance Cookies

Analytics cookies collect information about how visitors use our website — for example, which pages are visited most often, how long users stay on each page, and whether they encounter any error messages. This information helps us improve the performance and usability of our website. The data collected by these cookies is aggregated and anonymous.

We use Google Analytics to analyze traffic and usage patterns on our website. Google Analytics uses a set of cookies to collect this information and report website usage statistics without personally identifying individual visitors.

4.3 Functional Cookies

Functional cookies allow our website to remember choices you make and provide enhanced, more personalized features. For example, they may remember your preferred location, your language settings, or your previous order preferences. The information these cookies collect may be anonymized, and they cannot track your browsing activity on other websites.

4.4 Advertising / Targeting Cookies

Advertising cookies are used to deliver advertisements that are more relevant to you and your interests. They are also used to limit the number of times you see an advertisement and to help measure the effectiveness of our advertising campaigns. These cookies are usually placed by third-party advertising networks with the website operator's permission.

We use Google Ads conversion tracking and remarketing cookies to measure the effectiveness of our digital advertising campaigns and to show you relevant ads when you visit other websites.

9. Your Privacy Rights Under U.S. Law

Depending on your state of residence, you may have specific rights regarding your personal information and the use of cookies and tracking technologies. Under the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) and the California Privacy Rights Act (CPRA), California residents have the right to:

  • Know what personal information is being collected about them
  • Know whether their personal information is sold or disclosed and to whom
  • Opt out of the sale or sharing of their personal information

10. Do Not Track Signals

Some web browsers include a "Do Not Track" (DNT) feature that signals to websites you visit that you do not want your online browsing activity tracked. Currently, there is no universally accepted standard for how websites should respond to DNT signals. As a result, we do not currently respond to DNT browser signals or any other mechanism that automatically communicates your choice not to be tracked online.

However, we encourage you to use the opt-out tools and browser settings described in Section 7 to manage your cookie preferences.
