1. Introduction

Welcome to Dions ("we," "us," or "our"). We operate the website pizzadions.digital and are committed to being transparent about how we collect and use data related to your visits. This Cookie Policy is designed to help you understand what cookies are, how we use them, and what choices you have regarding their use.

This policy applies to all pages, features, and services available through pizzadions.digital. It should be read alongside our Privacy Policy and Terms of Service, both of which are available on our website.

If you have any questions about this Cookie Policy, you can reach us at:

2. What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files that are placed on your device — such as your computer, smartphone, or tablet — when you visit a website. They are widely used across the internet to make websites work more efficiently, to improve user experience, and to provide information to website owners and third-party service providers.

Cookies do not contain personally identifiable information in and of themselves, but information we store about you may be linked to the information stored in and obtained from cookies. Cookies are sent back and forth between your browser and the web server each time you visit a webpage, allowing the website to recognize your device and remember certain information about your visit.

2.1 How Cookies Work

When you access pizzadions.digital, our web server sends a small cookie file to your browser. Your browser stores this file and sends it back to our server each time you request a page from our website. This process allows us to recognize your browser and device, remember your preferences, analyze how you interact with our site, and serve relevant advertising.

2.2 Types of Cookies by Origin

  • First-Party Cookies: These are cookies set directly by Dions (pizzadions.digital) on your device. They are primarily used for functionality and essential site operations.
  • Third-Party Cookies: These are cookies set by external parties — such as Google or Meta (Facebook) — when you interact with content or features on our site provided by those third parties, such as analytics tools or advertising networks.

2.3 Types of Cookies by Duration

  • Session Cookies: These are temporary cookies that are erased when you close your browser. They are used to maintain your session as you navigate between pages on our site.
  • Persistent Cookies: These remain on your device for a set period of time or until you delete them. They are used to remember your preferences across multiple visits.

3. Types of Cookies We Use

We use four main categories of cookies on pizzadions.digital:

3.1 Essential Cookies

Essential cookies are strictly necessary for the website to function properly. Without these cookies, core features of our site — such as navigation, shopping cart functionality, and secure login — would not work. Because they are essential for the delivery of our services, these cookies cannot be disabled.

These cookies do not collect any personally identifiable information and do not track your browsing activity across other websites.

3.2 Analytics Cookies

Analytics cookies help us understand how visitors interact with our website by collecting and reporting information anonymously. This data helps us improve the structure, content, and functionality of our site. For example, analytics cookies tell us which pages are most frequently visited, how long users spend on each page, and where users are coming from.

We primarily use Google Analytics for this purpose. Google Analytics uses cookies to collect information about your use of our website and compiles reports for us. Google may transfer this information to third parties where required by law or where such third parties process the information on Google's behalf. By using this website, you consent to the processing of data by Google in the manner described in Google's Privacy Policy.

3.3 Functional Cookies

Functional cookies allow our website to remember choices you make — such as your preferred language, location, or display settings — and provide enhanced, personalized features. These cookies may also be used to remember changes you have made to text size, fonts, and other customizable elements. They may be set by us or by third-party service providers whose services we have added to our pages.

The information these cookies collect may be anonymized and cannot be used to track your browsing activity on other websites.

3.4 Advertising and Marketing Cookies

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

We use Google Ads and other advertising platforms to promote our food services. These cookies track your browsing habits to enable us to show advertising that is more likely to be of interest to you.

8. Impact of Disabling Cookies

While you have the right to disable cookies at any time, doing so may have a significant impact on your experience when using pizzadions.digital. Here is what you may expect if you choose to disable certain types of cookies:

8.1 Disabling Essential Cookies

8.2 Disabling Analytics Cookies

If you disable analytics cookies, we will not be able to collect data about how you use our website. This means we cannot track your visit or gather insights to improve our services. Your ability to browse and order food will not be affected.

Disabling functional cookies may result in a less personalized experience. You may need to re-enter your preferences (such as your location or language settings) every time you visit our website, as we will not be able to remember them.

8.4 Disabling Advertising Cookies

Disabling advertising cookies will mean that advertisements you see across the internet — including on our website and on other websites — will be less relevant to you. It will not reduce the number of ads you see, only their relevance to your interests.

9. Do Not Track Signals

Some browsers include a "Do Not Track" (DNT) feature that signals to websites that you do not want to be tracked. Currently, there is no universally accepted standard for how websites should respond to DNT signals. As such, pizzadions.digital does not currently respond to DNT browser signals. We encourage you to use the opt-out tools described in Section 7 of this policy to manage your tracking preferences.
