This Cookie Policy explains what cookies are, how we use cookies on pizzluce.rest, the types of cookies we use, and how you can manage your cookie preferences. This policy should be read alongside our Privacy Policy and Terms of Service, which provide additional context about how we handle your personal information.
Pizza Luce is a food service business operating in the United States.

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 their websites work efficiently, to provide a better and more personalized browsing experience, and to gather analytical information about how users interact with their websites.
Cookies are sent back to the originating website on each subsequent visit, or to another website that recognizes that cookie. Cookies are useful because they allow a website to recognize a user's device. You can find more general information about cookies at www.allaboutcookies.org.
2.1 How Do Cookies Work?
When you visit pizzluce.rest for the first time, our website sends a cookie to your browser, which stores it on your device. The next time you visit our site, your browser sends the cookie back to our server, allowing us to recognize your device and remember your preferences or actions. Cookies do not typically contain personally identifiable information, but personal data that we store about you may be linked to the information stored in and obtained from cookies.
2.2 First-Party vs. Third-Party Cookies
Cookies can be set by the website you are visiting (first-party cookies) or by other organizations whose services are embedded on that website (third-party cookies). For example, when you visit pizzluce.rest, we may use services such as Google Analytics, which sets its own cookies on your device to help us understand how visitors use our site. These are third-party cookies because they are set by Google, not by Pizza Luce directly.
2.3 Session Cookies vs. Persistent Cookies
Session cookies are temporary cookies that expire when you close your browser. They are used to maintain your session on our website, for example, to keep items in your shopping cart as you browse different pages.
Persistent cookies remain on your device for a set period of time, or until you manually delete them. These cookies help us remember your preferences and settings for future visits to our website.
3. Types of Cookies We Use
Pizza Luce uses the following categories of cookies on our website pizzluce.rest:
3.1 Essential Cookies (Strictly Necessary)

Without these cookies, certain features of the website would not work properly, and you may not be able to access certain areas of the site. These cookies do not collect any personal information that could be used for marketing or to remember where you have been on the internet.

We use Google Analytics to collect this type of data. The information generated by these cookies about your use of our website is typically transmitted to and stored by Google on servers in the United States. Google will use this information on our behalf to evaluate your use of our website, compile reports on website activity, and provide other services relating to website activity and internet usage.
