This policy should be read alongside our Privacy Policy and Terms of Service, which together govern your use of our Website and the ways in which we collect, process, and protect your personal information. We are committed to being transparent about our data practices and to complying with all applicable United States federal and state laws, including but not limited to the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) as amended by the California Privacy Rights Act (CPRA), and the Federal Trade Commission Act (FTC Act).

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 more efficiently, to provide a better user experience, and to provide information to the website owner about how visitors use their site.
Cookies are created by your web browser when you visit a website and are stored on your device. Each time you return to that website, your browser sends the cookie back to the server, allowing the website to recognize your device and remember information about your preferences or past actions.
Cookies typically contain the following information:
- The name of the server that placed the cookie
- The expiration date of the cookie (if applicable)
- A unique identifier (a randomly generated number)
- Information about your preferences or browsing activity
Cookies cannot be used to run programs or deliver viruses to your computer. They are uniquely assigned to your device and can only be read by the web server in the domain that issued the cookie to you.
2.1 First-Party vs. Third-Party Cookies
First-party cookies are set directly by pizzanmod.top and are used to enhance your experience on our Website. These cookies can only be read by our Website.
Third-party cookies are set by domains other than pizzanmod.top. These are typically set by third-party service providers such as Google Analytics, Google Ads, Facebook, and other advertising networks or analytics platforms. Third-party cookies allow these services to track your browsing activity across multiple websites.
2.2 Session vs. Persistent Cookies
Session cookies are temporary cookies that are deleted from your device when you close your web browser. They are used to track your activity during a single browsing session.
Persistent cookies remain on your device for a set period of time specified in the cookie. They are activated each time you visit the website that created them and help remember your preferences or login information between visits.
3. Similar Tracking Technologies
In addition to cookies, we may also use other similar tracking technologies on our Website, including:
- Web Beacons (Pixel Tags): Small graphic images embedded in web pages or emails that allow us to determine whether you have performed specific actions, such as opening an email or visiting a particular page.
- Local Storage: A type of storage available in modern web browsers that allows websites to store data locally on your device without an expiration date.
- JavaScript Tags: Code snippets embedded in our website that collect information about your interactions with our pages.
- Device Fingerprinting: A method of identifying devices based on their unique characteristics, such as browser type, operating system, and screen resolution.
For the purposes of this Cookie Policy, all of these technologies are collectively referred to as "cookies."
4. Types of Cookies We Use

These cookies allow us to count visits and traffic sources so we can measure and improve the performance of our Website.

8. Cookies and Children's Privacy
Our Website is not directed at children under the age of 13, and we do not knowingly use cookies to collect personal information from children under 13 years of age.

Some web browsers have a "Do Not Track" (DNT) feature that signals to websites that you do not want to have your online activity tracked. Currently, there is no universally accepted standard for how websites should respond to DNT signals. As a result, our Website does not currently respond to DNT browser signals. However, you can use the cookie management options described in Section 6 of this policy to control tracking on our Website.
We will continue to monitor developments regarding DNT standards and will update our practices if and when a standard is established.
