2. What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files that are placed on your computer, tablet, smartphone, or other internet-enabled device when you visit a website. These files are stored in your device's web browser and allow websites to recognize your device, remember your preferences, and gather information about how you interact with the site.

Cookies were originally designed to help websites function more efficiently and to provide information to the website owners. Over time, they have evolved to serve a variety of purposes, including enabling personalized experiences, measuring website traffic, and delivering targeted advertising.

2.1 How Do Cookies Work?

When you visit roundtable-newpizza.click for the first time, our server sends a cookie to your browser. Your browser stores this cookie locally on your device. The next time you visit our website, your browser sends the stored cookie back to our server, allowing us to recognize you and recall information about your previous visit.

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"), such as analytics platforms or advertising networks. Cookies can also be classified by how long they remain on your device:

  • Session Cookies: These cookies are temporary and are deleted from your device as soon as you close your browser. They are used to maintain your session while you browse the website.
  • Persistent Cookies: These cookies remain on your device for a set period of time or until you manually delete them. They are used to remember your preferences and actions across multiple visits.

2.2 Similar Tracking Technologies

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

  • Web Beacons (Pixel Tags): Small invisible images embedded in web pages or emails that track whether a page or email has been viewed.
  • Local Storage: A browser feature that allows websites to store data locally on your device, similar to cookies but with greater storage capacity.
  • JavaScript Tags: Code snippets that collect information about your browsing behavior on our website.
  • Device Fingerprinting: A method of identifying your device based on its unique characteristics, such as browser type, operating system, screen resolution, and installed fonts.

All references to "cookies" in this policy also encompass these similar tracking technologies unless specifically stated otherwise.

3.2 Performance and Analytics Cookies

These cookies collect information about how visitors use our website, such as which pages are visited most often, how long users spend on each page, and whether users encounter any errors.

Key analytics tools we use include Google Analytics.

3.3 Functional Cookies

Functional cookies enable our website to remember choices you make and provide enhanced, personalized features. These cookies may remember your location, preferred language, the type of device you are using, or your preferred menu items and past orders. While not strictly necessary, these cookies significantly improve your user experience on our site.

3.4 Advertising and Targeting Cookies

These cookies are used to deliver advertisements that are more relevant to you and your interests. They may also be used to limit the number of times you see an advertisement and to measure the effectiveness of advertising campaigns. Advertising cookies are usually placed by third-party advertising networks with our permission. They remember that you have visited our website and may share this information with other organizations, such as advertisers.

We use advertising cookies from providers including Google Ads.
