Cookie Policy

Last Updated: April 15, 2026

1. Introduction

Welcome to Punch Pizza. We are committed to being transparent about how we collect and use data related to your use of our website. This Cookie Policy provides detailed information about the cookies and similar tracking technologies we use, why we use them, and how you can control them.

This policy should be read alongside our Privacy Policy and Terms of Service, which provide additional context about how we handle personal information collected through our website at punchs-pizza.top.

By accessing or using our website, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agree to the practices described in this Cookie Policy. If you do not agree with our use of cookies, you can adjust your browser settings or opt out of certain cookies as described below, but please be aware that some features of our website may not function properly as a result.

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 across the internet to make websites work efficiently, provide functionality, and collect information to improve user experiences.

Cookies are created by the web server that hosts the website you are visiting and are sent to your browser (such as Chrome, Firefox, Safari, or Edge). Your browser stores these cookies on your device, and the next time you visit the same website, your browser sends the cookies back to the server. This allows the website to remember your preferences, keep you logged in, and track how you use the site.

Cookies typically contain the following types of information:

• A unique identifier for the cookie
• The name and domain of the website that set the cookie
• The expiry date of the cookie (how long it will remain on your device)
• Any data stored within the cookie (such as your preferences or a session identifier)

2.1 First-Party vs. Third-Party Cookies

First-party cookies are set directly by the website you are visiting — in this case, punchs-pizza.top. These cookies are used to improve your experience on our website and are controlled entirely by us.

Third-party cookies are set by domains other than the one you are visiting. For example, when we embed tools from Google Analytics or Facebook on our website, those companies may set their own cookies on your device. We do not control third-party cookies, and they are governed by the privacy and cookie policies of those third parties.

2.2 Session vs. Persistent Cookies

Session cookies are temporary cookies that exist only while your browser is open. They are automatically deleted when you close your browser. Session cookies are typically used to keep you logged in or remember items in your shopping cart during a single visit.

Persistent cookies remain on your device for a set period of time after your browser is closed. They are reactivated each time you visit the website that created them. Persistent cookies are used to remember your preferences across multiple visits.

3. Similar Tracking Technologies

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

• Web Beacons (Pixel Tags): Small transparent image files embedded in web pages or emails that allow us to track whether a page has been viewed or an email has been opened.
• Local Storage: A technology built into your web browser that allows websites to store data locally on your device. Similar to cookies but with a larger storage capacity and no automatic expiry.
• JavaScript Tags: Scripts embedded in web pages that track user behavior and interactions, commonly used by analytics and advertising platforms.

4. Types of Cookies We Use

We categorize the cookies used on our website into four main types: essential, functional, analytics, and advertising cookies.

4.1 Essential Cookies

These cookies are strictly necessary for our website to function properly. Without them, certain services you have requested cannot be provided. Essential cookies do not require your consent under applicable law because they are necessary for the basic operation of the website. They enable core features such as security, network management, and accessibility.

Examples of what essential cookies do:

• Keep you logged in to your account during a session
• Remember items added to your online order cart
• Ensure secure transmission of data
• Remember your cookie consent preferences

4.2 Functional Cookies

Functional cookies allow our website to remember choices you make and provide enhanced, personalized features. These cookies can remember your preferences, such as your preferred language, your location for delivery purposes, or your previously saved order preferences. The information these cookies collect may be anonymized, and they cannot track your browsing activity on other websites.

4.3 Analytics Cookies

Analytics cookies collect information about how visitors use our website, such as which pages are visited most often, how long visitors stay on each page, and whether visitors receive error messages. This information helps us understand how our website is performing and how we can improve it. Analytics cookies collect data in an aggregated and anonymized form wherever possible.

We use Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google LLC, to collect this type of information. Google Analytics uses cookies to compile reports on website activity and provide other services related to website activity and internet usage. For more information on how Google uses data when you use our website, please visit: https://policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites

4.4 Advertising and Marketing Cookies

Advertising cookies are used to deliver advertisements that are relevant and meaningful to you and your interests. They are also used to limit the number of times you see an advertisement and to help measure the effectiveness of our advertising campaigns. These cookies remember that you have visited a website and may share this information with other organizations such as advertisers. These cookies may be set through our website by our advertising partners.

We use Google Ads conversion tracking and remarketing, which may use cookies to show our ads to users who have previously visited our website when they visit other websites within the Google Display Network.

5. Specific Cookies We Use

6. Your Rights Under U.S. Law

If you are a resident of the United States, your rights regarding cookies and online tracking depend on the state in which you reside. We are committed to complying with all applicable federal and state privacy laws.

Under the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) as amended by the California Privacy Rights Act (CPRA), California residents have the right to:

• Opt out of the "sale" or "sharing" of personal information, which may include certain advertising cookie activities
• Limit the use of sensitive personal information
• Delete personal information collected through cookies (subject to certain exceptions)
• Non-discrimination for exercising these rights

Additionally, the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) Act requires companies to be transparent about their data collection practices and prohibits deceptive practices regarding online privacy and cookie usage.

Various other states including Virginia (VCDPA), Colorado (CPA), Connecticut (CTDPA), and Utah (UCPA) also provide residents with rights regarding online tracking and data collection. We honor opt-out requests from residents of all states with applicable privacy legislation.

9. Do Not Track Signals

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