Welcome to Dewey's Pizza. This Cookie Policy explains what cookies are, how we use them on our website tasty-deweys.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.
We are committed to being transparent about the technologies we use. As a food business operating in the United States, we comply with applicable federal and state regulations, including guidance from the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) regarding online tracking and consumer privacy, as well as the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) and the California Privacy Rights Act (CPRA) for users located in California.

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 to make websites work more efficiently, to enhance user experience, and to provide website owners with information about how their site is being used.
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 and remember certain information about your preferences or past actions.
2.1 How Cookies Work
When you visit tasty-deweys.rest, our web server sends a cookie to your browser, which stores it in a small file on your device. The next time you visit our website, your browser sends that cookie back to our server, allowing us to recognize you and tailor your experience accordingly.
Cookies can be:
- Session Cookies: These are temporary cookies that expire when you close your browser. They are used to keep track of your movements from page to page during a single browsing session.
- Persistent Cookies: These remain on your device for a set period of time or until you manually delete them. They are activated each time you visit the website that created them.
- First-Party Cookies: Set by the website you are visiting directly (in this case, tasty-deweys.rest).
- Third-Party Cookies: Set by a domain other than the one you are visiting, typically by third-party service providers such as analytics platforms or advertising networks.
2.2 Similar Tracking Technologies
In addition to cookies, we may also use other similar technologies such as:
- Web Beacons (Pixel Tags): Tiny graphic 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 within your browser, functioning similarly to cookies but with greater storage capacity.
- JavaScript Tags: Small pieces of code that collect information about how you interact with our website.
3. Types of Cookies We Use
Dewey's Pizza uses several types of cookies on tasty-deweys.rest, each serving a specific purpose. Below is a description of each category:
3.1 Strictly Necessary / Essential Cookies
These cookies are absolutely essential for the website to function properly. They enable core functionality such as security, network management, and accessibility. Without these cookies, services you have asked for — such as adding items to your online order or accessing secure areas of the website — cannot be provided. You cannot opt out of these cookies if you wish to use our website.
Examples of what these cookies do include:
- Maintaining your session as you navigate between pages
- Remembering items added to your online order cart
- Enabling you to log in to any customer account area
- Ensuring the security of your browsing session
3.2 Analytics and Performance Cookies
These cookies collect information about how visitors use our website — for example, which pages are visited most often and whether users receive error messages. All information collected by these cookies is aggregated and therefore anonymous. We use this data solely to improve the performance and user experience of tasty-deweys.rest.
We use Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google LLC, to help us understand how visitors interact with our website. Google Analytics uses cookies to collect standard internet log information and visitor behavior information in an anonymous form.
3.3 Functional Cookies
Functional cookies allow our website to remember choices you make (such as your preferred location, language settings, or menu preferences) and provide enhanced, more personalized features. These cookies may also be used to provide services you have asked for, such as watching a video or commenting on a blog post. The information collected by these cookies may be anonymized, and they cannot track your browsing activity on other websites.
3.4 Advertising and Targeting Cookies
These cookies are used to deliver advertisements that are more relevant to you and your interests. They are also used to limit the number of times you see an advertisement and help measure the effectiveness of advertising campaigns. They are usually placed by advertising networks with the website operator's permission. They remember that you have visited a website, and this information is shared with other organizations such as advertisers.
We may use Google Ads and similar platforms to show you relevant advertisements about Dewey's Pizza promotions and menu offerings when you visit other websites or use other online services.
