Welcome to Punch Pizza. We are committed to being transparent about the technologies we use on our website. This Cookie Policy is designed to help you understand what cookies are, how we use them, what types of cookies we deploy across punchpizzas.digital, and how you can manage your cookie preferences.

This policy applies to all visitors, users, and customers who access or interact with our website. It should be read alongside our Privacy Policy and Terms of Service, which together govern your use of our website and services.

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 function properly, work more efficiently, and provide reporting information.

Cookies are created by the web server that hosts the website and delivered to your browser. Your browser stores these files and sends them back to the server every time you make a subsequent request. This allows the website to recognize your device and remember information about your visit, such as your preferences, login status, and browsing behavior.

Cookies set by the website you are visiting 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.

In addition to cookies, we may also use similar tracking technologies such as:

• Web Beacons (Pixel Tags): Tiny graphic images embedded in web pages or emails that allow us to track page visits or email opens.
• Local Storage: A browser feature that allows websites to store data locally within your browser.
• Session Storage: Temporary data storage that is cleared when your browser session ends.
• Fingerprinting: A technique that collects information about your browser and device to create a unique identifier.

3. How Cookies Work

When you first visit punchpizzas.digital, our website may ask for your consent to place certain cookies on your device. When you navigate through our website, cookies help us recognize your device on return visits, enabling a smoother and more personalized experience.

Cookies generally have two lifespans:

• Session Cookies: These are temporary cookies that are deleted from your device when you close your web browser. They are used to manage your session while you are browsing our website.
• Persistent Cookies: These cookies remain on your device for a set period of time (the duration varies depending on the cookie). They are activated each time you visit the website that created that particular cookie. They help us recognize you as a returning visitor and remember your preferences.

If you do not allow these cookies, some or all of these services may not function properly.

4.4 Advertising and Targeting Cookies

These cookies may be set through our website 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 websites.
