Cookie Policy
Last Updated: April 15, 2026
1. Introduction
Welcome to Dewey's Pizza ("we," "us," or "our"). We operate the website pizzadeweys.click (the "Site") to provide our customers with information about our menu, locations, online ordering, promotions, and other food-related services. Like most modern websites, our Site uses cookies and similar tracking technologies to help us deliver a better experience to our visitors.
This Cookie Policy is designed to give you clear and transparent information about the cookies we use, why we use them, and how you can manage your preferences. We encourage you to read this policy carefully alongside our Privacy Policy, which provides additional details about how we handle your personal data in compliance with applicable United States federal and state laws, including the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) as amended by the California Privacy Rights Act (CPRA), and the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) Act.
If you have any questions about our use of cookies, please contact us using the details provided at the end of this 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 operators to make their websites work efficiently, to improve user experience, and to provide reporting information.
Cookies set by the website owner (in this case, Dewey's 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. The parties that set these third-party cookies can recognize your device both when it visits the website in question and also when it visits certain other websites.
2.1 How Do Cookies Work?
When you visit pizzadeweys.click, our web server sends a cookie file to your browser, which stores it on your device. Each time you return to our Site, your browser sends the cookie back to our server, allowing us to recognize your device and remember certain information about your preferences or previous actions.
Cookies can be "session cookies" or "persistent cookies." Session cookies are temporary and are deleted from your device once you close your browser. Persistent cookies remain on your device for a set period of time (or until you manually delete them) and are reactivated each time you visit the website that created that cookie.
In addition to cookies, we may also use similar technologies such as web beacons (also known as pixel tags or clear GIFs), local storage objects, and scripts. These technologies operate similarly to cookies and may be used to track your interactions with our Site and marketing emails.
3. Types of Cookies We Use
We categorize the cookies used on our Site into four main types: Essential, Functional, Analytics, and Advertising. Below is a description of each category:
3.1 Essential Cookies
These cookies are strictly necessary for the operation of our website. Without these cookies, core features of the Site — such as accessing secure areas, processing online orders, and maintaining your shopping cart — would not function properly. Because these cookies are essential to the basic functioning of the Site, they cannot be disabled without significantly impacting your experience. They do not collect personal data for marketing purposes.
Examples of what essential cookies do on pizzadeweys.click:
- Maintain your session as you navigate between pages
- Remember items you have added to your online order cart
- Ensure security features work correctly during checkout
- Load-balance traffic across our servers
3.2 Functional Cookies
Functional cookies allow our website to remember choices you make and provide enhanced, personalized features. These may include remembering your preferred location, language settings, or delivery address for faster ordering. The information these cookies collect may be anonymized, and they cannot track your browsing activity on other websites.
Examples of what functional cookies do on pizzadeweys.click:
- Remember your nearest Dewey's Pizza location
- Save your preferred pizza customizations for repeat orders
- Store your login preferences for the online ordering portal
3.3 Analytics Cookies
Analytics cookies help us understand how visitors interact with our website. They collect information about which pages are visited most often, how long visitors spend on each page, and whether visitors encounter any error messages. All information collected is aggregated and therefore anonymous. We use this data to improve how our website works and to enhance your overall experience when ordering from us.
We primarily use Google Analytics for this purpose, which is operated by Google LLC. Google Analytics uses cookies to collect standard internet log information and visitor behavior data. The data collected is used to compile statistical reports on website activity.
3.4 Advertising and Marketing Cookies
Advertising cookies (also called targeting 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 measure the effectiveness of our advertising campaigns. They are usually placed by advertising networks with our permission. These cookies remember that you have visited our website and this information may be shared with other organizations, such as advertisers.
We use Google Ads conversion tracking cookies to help us understand which online advertisements lead to visits and purchases on our Site. We may also use Meta (Facebook) Pixel to track conversions from Facebook and Instagram advertisements.

8. Do Not Track Signals
Some web browsers have a "Do Not Track" (DNT) feature that signals to websites that you do not wish to have your online activity tracked.

We will continue to monitor developments in DNT standards and will update our practices accordingly if an industry-wide standard is established.
