Cookie Policy
Effective Date: May 20, 2026 | Last Updated: May 20, 2026
1. Introduction
Welcome to Round Table Pizza's Cookie Policy. At Round Table Pizza, we are committed to transparency about how we collect and use data related to your use of our website. This policy provides you with clear and comprehensive information about all cookies we use, why we use them, and how you can manage your cookie preferences.
This Cookie Policy applies to the website roundtablepizza.digital and any related subdomains operated by Round Table Pizza. It should be read alongside our Privacy Policy, which provides further detail about how we handle personal information collected through our website.
We periodically update this Cookie Policy to reflect changes in technology, legislation, and our business practices. We encourage you to review this page regularly to stay informed about our use of cookies.
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 collect analytical information about how users interact with the site.
Cookies are created by the web server you visit and are stored on your device by your web browser. Every time you return to the same website, your browser sends the cookie back to the server, allowing the website to recognize your device and remember your preferences or previous actions.
Cookies do not typically contain any information that personally identifies a user — they simply store a unique identifier that allows the website to recognize your browser. However, personal information that we store about you may be linked to the information stored in and obtained from cookies.
2.1 First-Party vs. Third-Party Cookies
First-party cookies are cookies that are set directly by the website you are visiting — in this case, roundtablepizza.digital. These cookies are primarily used to improve your experience on our website and to remember your preferences.
Third-party cookies are cookies set by a domain other than the one you are currently visiting. These are typically placed by third-party service providers, such as analytics companies or advertising networks, to collect information about your browsing activity across multiple websites.
2.2 Session vs. Persistent Cookies
Session cookies are temporary cookies that exist only during a single browsing session. They are deleted automatically when you close your browser. These cookies are used to keep track of your movements from page to page during a visit so you do not need to enter the same information repeatedly.
Persistent cookies remain on your device for a set period of time specified in the cookie's data file, even after you close your browser. These cookies are activated each time you visit the website that created the cookie.
3. How Do Cookies Work?
When you first visit roundtablepizza.digital, our server sends a cookie to your browser, which stores it on your device. The cookie contains a unique identifier and potentially other information. On subsequent visits, your browser automatically sends the cookie back to our server, allowing us to recognize you and recall your preferences or behavior from previous visits.
Cookies enable a range of functionality on our website, including:
- Keeping you signed in to your account
- Remembering items in your online order cart
- Saving your location preferences for finding nearby Round Table Pizza locations
- Helping us understand how visitors use our website so we can improve it
- Delivering relevant advertising and promotional content
- Measuring the effectiveness of our marketing campaigns
4. Types of Cookies We Use
We use the following categories of cookies on roundtablepizza.digital:
4.1 Strictly Necessary / Essential Cookies
These cookies are essential for the proper functioning of our website. Without them, certain features of the website — such as adding items to your cart, completing an online order, or accessing your account — would not be possible. These cookies do not collect information about you that could be used for marketing purposes. Because they are strictly necessary for the website to function, you cannot opt out of these cookies through our cookie management tool (though you can disable them via your browser settings, which may impair website functionality).
4.2 Analytics and Performance Cookies
Analytics cookies allow us to collect information about how visitors use our website. This includes which pages are visited most frequently, how long visitors spend on each page, how they arrived at the website, and whether they encounter any error messages. All information collected by these cookies is aggregated and anonymous — they do not identify individual users. We use this data to improve the performance and user experience of our website.
4.3 Functional Cookies
Functional cookies allow our website to remember choices you make — such as your preferred location, your preferred language, or your stored order preferences — and provide enhanced, more personalized features. These cookies may also be used to provide services you have requested, such as remembering your saved payment method or past orders. The information these cookies collect may be anonymized, and they cannot track your browsing activity on other websites.
4.4 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 to help measure the effectiveness of advertising campaigns. These cookies are usually placed by advertising networks and remember that you have visited our website. This information may be shared with other organizations such as advertisers. These cookies work by uniquely identifying your browser and internet device.
