This document explains how Anthony's Coal Fired Pizza ("we," "us," or "our") uses cookies and similar tracking technologies on our website acfpcafe.rest. We are committed to being transparent about how we collect and use data related to your browsing experience.

This Cookie Policy should be read alongside our Privacy Policy and Terms of Service, which together govern your use of our website. By accessing or using acfpcafe.rest, you acknowledge that you have read and understood this Cookie Policy.

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 work, or work more efficiently, as well as to provide reporting information and personalized experiences.

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.

2.1 How Cookies Work

When you visit our website, your browser sends a request to our web server. The server responds by sending back the web page you requested, along with one or more cookies. Your browser stores these cookies locally. The next time you visit our website, your browser sends these cookies back to the server, allowing the server to recognize you and remember your preferences or activities.

Cookies can be "persistent" or "session" cookies. Persistent cookies remain on your device after you close your browser and are reactivated when you revisit the website that created them. Session cookies are temporary and are deleted when you close your browser. Most of the cookies we use are persistent cookies unless stated otherwise.

2.2 Similar Tracking Technologies

In addition to cookies, we may also use similar tracking technologies on our website, including:

  • Web Beacons: Small graphic images (also known as "pixel tags" or "clear GIFs") that may be included on our website and in our emails to track whether you have opened an email or visited a particular page.
  • Local Storage: Technologies such as HTML5 localStorage that store data locally on your device and function similarly to cookies.
  • Session Storage: Temporary storage that is cleared when your browser session ends.
  • Fingerprinting: A technique that collects information about your device and browser settings to help identify your device across visits.
