Cookie Policy

Last Updated: March 21, 2026

1. 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 efficiently, improve user experience, and provide reporting information.

Cookies set by the website owner (in this case, Anthony's Coal Fired Pizza) are called "first-party cookies." Cookies set by parties other than the website owner are called "third-party cookies." Third-party cookies enable third-party features or functionality to be provided on or through the website, such as advertising, interactive content, and analytics. The parties that set these third-party cookies can recognize your device both when it visits our website and when it visits certain other websites.

Cookies do not typically contain any information that personally identifies a user. However, personal information that we store about you may be linked to the information stored in and obtained from cookies. Cookies allow websites to remember your actions and preferences over a period of time so you do not have to keep re-entering them whenever you come back to the site or browse from one page to another.

2. How Do Cookies Work?

When you visit anthonys-coalpizza.top for the first time, our 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.

Cookies work through a simple request-and-response process:

  • You open your browser and type in our web address or click a link to our site.
  • Our web server sends a response along with one or more cookies.
  • Your browser stores those cookies on your device's hard drive or in memory.
  • Each time you request a new page from our website, your browser sends the stored cookies back to our server.
  • Our server reads the cookies and uses the stored data to personalize your experience.

Cookies can be "persistent" or "session" cookies. Persistent cookies remain on your device for a set period of time specified in the cookie. Session cookies are deleted automatically when you close your browser. Both types serve different purposes as described in the sections below.

3. Types of Cookies We Use

We use four main categories of cookies on our website. Each category serves a specific and distinct purpose in delivering you the best possible experience when you visit anthonys-coalpizza.top.

3.1 Essential Cookies

These cookies are strictly necessary for our website to function and cannot be switched off in our systems. They are usually only set in response to actions made by you which amount to a request for services, such as setting your privacy preferences, logging in, or filling in forms. Without these cookies, the website will not perform as expected, and certain services you have requested cannot be provided.

Essential cookies do not store any personally identifiable information and are exempt from consent requirements under applicable United States law, including the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) and the California Privacy Rights Act (CPRA), as they are strictly necessary for the legitimate purpose of enabling the use of a service explicitly requested by you.

3.2 Analytics Cookies

Analytics 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 these cookies collect is aggregated and therefore anonymous. 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.

We use Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google LLC, to help analyze how users use our site. Google Analytics uses cookies to collect information such as how often users visit our site, what pages they visit when they do so, and what other sites they used prior to coming to this site. We use the information we get from Google Analytics to improve our website and our services.

3.3 Functional Cookies

Functional cookies enable the website to provide enhanced functionality and personalization. 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, the region you are in, and other customized settings, so we can provide you with a more personalized experience.

For Anthony's Coal Fired Pizza, functional cookies may remember your location for showing you the nearest restaurant, your previous order preferences, and your communication preferences.

3.4 Advertising and Targeting Cookies

Advertising cookies may be set through our site by our advertising partners. They may be used by those companies to build a profile of your interests and show you relevant advertisements on other sites. They do not directly store personal information but are based on uniquely identifying your browser and internet device. Under the CCPA and CPRA, the sharing of data through advertising cookies may constitute a "sale" or "sharing" of personal information. California residents have the right to opt out of such activities.

We use Google Ads cookies to measure the effectiveness of our advertising campaigns and to deliver targeted advertisements to users who have previously visited our website. We may also use Facebook Pixel and similar tools for remarketing purposes.

While you have the right to manage and disable cookies, please be aware of the following potential impacts:

Cookie Type Impact of Disabling
Essential Cookies The website may not function correctly. Features such as the shopping cart, online ordering, and login functionality may not work. We strongly advise against disabling these cookies.
Analytics Cookies We will not be able to track website performance and understand how visitors use our site. This means we may be less able to improve our website based on user behavior data. Your browsing experience will not be directly affected.
Functional Cookies Some personalized features may not work properly. For example, your location preferences may not be remembered, and you may need to re-enter your preferred restaurant location on each visit.
Advertising Cookies You will still see advertisements, but they will not be tailored to your interests based on your browsing behavior. You may see less relevant ads as a result.

9. Do Not Track Signals

Some browsers have a "Do Not Track" feature that lets you tell websites that you do not want to have your online activities tracked. At this time, our website does not respond to browser "Do Not Track" signals, as there is no consistent industry standard for compliance with such signals. However, we remain committed to providing you with meaningful choices about the information collected on our website for third-party purposes, and that is why we provide the opt-out links and cookie management tools described in this policy.

California residents should note that under the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA), they have the right to opt out of the sale of their personal information.
