Cookie Policy
Last Updated: May 30, 2026
1. Introduction
Welcome to Pizza Luce ("we," "us," or "our"). This Cookie Policy applies to our website located at pizzaluce-food.click and explains what cookies are, how we use them, the types of cookies we deploy, and how you can control your cookie preferences.
We are committed to being transparent about the technologies we use. As a food business operating in the United States, we comply with applicable laws including the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) and the California Privacy Rights Act (CPRA) for California residents, as well as the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) Act guidelines on online tracking and consumer privacy.
Please read this policy carefully. If you have any questions, you may contact us using the details provided at the end of this document.
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 websites work more efficiently, to provide a better user experience, and to provide reporting information.
Cookies set by the website owner (in this case, Pizza Luce) 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 Do Cookies Work?
When you visit our website, our web server sends a cookie to your browser. Your browser stores this cookie on your device. The next time you visit our website, your browser sends the cookie back to our server. This allows our server to recognize your device and remember certain information about your previous visits, such as your preferences or the items in your online order cart.
Cookies can be either "session cookies" or "persistent cookies." Session cookies are temporary and are deleted from your device when you close your browser. Persistent cookies remain on your device for a set period of time or until you manually delete them.
2.2 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 track user behavior and gather statistics about website usage.
- Local Storage: A form of web storage that allows websites to store data locally in your browser, which persists even after you close the browser.
- Session Storage: Similar to local storage but is cleared when the browser tab is closed.
- JavaScript Tags: Small pieces of code embedded in our web pages that collect information about how you use our site.
For the purposes of this Cookie Policy, all of these technologies are collectively referred to as "cookies."
3. Types of Cookies We Use
We use four main categories of cookies on our website. Each category serves a different purpose:
3.1 Essential Cookies (Strictly Necessary)
These cookies are strictly necessary for our website to function properly. Without these cookies, the website would not operate correctly, and we would be unable to provide you with services you have requested, such as processing online food orders or accessing secure areas of our site.
Essential cookies do not require your consent because they are necessary for the legitimate operation of our website. However, you can still disable them through your browser settings, although doing so may significantly impact the functionality of our site.
Examples of what these cookies do:
- Maintain your online ordering session so your cart items are preserved
- Remember your login credentials for authenticated sessions
- Enable security features to protect against fraudulent activity
- Balance server load to ensure website performance
3.2 Analytics and Performance Cookies
These cookies allow us to count visits to our website and understand how visitors interact with our content.

We use Google Analytics to collect this data. The information helps us improve the way our website works and enhance the experience of visiting our site to find your favorite Pizza Luce menu items.
3.3 Functional Cookies
Functional cookies enable our website to remember choices you make and provide enhanced, more personalized features. For example, these cookies may remember your location preferences for finding the nearest Pizza Luce location, your language settings, or your preferred delivery address for food orders.

3.4 Advertising and Marketing Cookies
These cookies are used to deliver advertisements that are relevant to you and your interests, both on our website and on other websites across the internet. They are also used to limit the number of times you see an advertisement and to help measure the effectiveness of our marketing campaigns.
These cookies are usually placed by third-party advertising networks with our permission. They remember that you have visited our website and this information may be shared with other organizations, such as advertisers. We use Google Ads to run targeted advertising campaigns to promote our food offerings and special deals.

7. Do Not Track Signals
Some browsers include a "Do Not Track" (DNT) feature that signals to websites that you do not want to be tracked. Currently, there is no universally accepted standard for how websites should respond to DNT signals. As such, our website does not currently alter its behavior in response to DNT signals. However, you can use the cookie management tools described in Section 5 to control tracking on our website.
