Last Updated: March 29, 2026
1. Introduction
Welcome to deweyspizza.world, the official website of Dewey's Pizza. This Cookie Policy is designed to help you understand how and why we use cookies and similar technologies when you visit our website, place an online order, or otherwise interact with our digital services.
By continuing to use our website, you consent to our use of cookies in accordance with this policy. If you do not agree to our use of cookies, you can adjust your browser settings or opt out using the tools described below. Please note that disabling certain cookies may affect your ability to use some features of our website.
This Cookie Policy should be read in conjunction with our Privacy Policy and Terms of Service, which together govern your use of deweyspizza.world.
2. What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files that are placed on your computer, smartphone, tablet, or other device when you visit a website. They are widely used by website owners to make their sites work, function more efficiently, 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.
Cookies typically contain the following information:
- The name of the server the cookie was sent from
- The lifetime of the cookie (how long it stays on your device)
- A value — usually a randomly generated unique number
In addition to cookies, we may also use similar technologies such as web beacons (also known as pixel tags or clear GIFs), local storage, and session storage. These technologies function similarly to cookies and allow us to track user behavior and improve our services.
3. Why Do We Use Cookies?
Dewey's Pizza uses cookies for several important reasons:
- To make our website work: Some cookies are strictly necessary for our website to function properly. Without these, certain features like your shopping cart or login session would not work.
- To remember your preferences: We use cookies to remember your settings and preferences so you don't have to re-enter them every time you visit.
- To understand how you use our website: Analytics cookies help us understand how visitors interact with deweyspizza.world, including which pages are most popular and how users navigate the site. This helps us improve user experience.
- To deliver relevant advertising: We work with advertising partners to show you ads that are relevant to your interests, both on our website and elsewhere online.
- To improve our services: The data collected from cookies helps us continually improve our website, menu, ordering process, and overall customer experience.
4. Types of Cookies We Use
We categorize the cookies we use into four main types:
4.1 Strictly Necessary Cookies
These cookies are essential for our website to function and cannot be switched off in our systems. They are usually only set in response to actions made by you, such as setting your privacy preferences, logging in, or filling in forms, including our online ordering system. Without these cookies, services you have asked for — such as adding items to your cart — cannot be provided.
4.2 Analytics and Performance Cookies
These cookies allow us to count visits and traffic sources so we can measure and improve the performance of our website. They help us to know which pages are the most and least popular and see how visitors move around the site. All information these cookies collect is aggregated and therefore anonymous. If you do not allow these cookies, we will not know when you have visited our site and will not be able to monitor its performance.
4.3 Functional Cookies
These cookies enable the website to provide enhanced functionality and personalization. They may be set by us or by third-party providers whose services we have added to our pages. If you do not allow these cookies, some or all of these services may not function properly. Examples include remembering your preferred location, language settings, or previously viewed menu items.
4.4 Advertising and Targeting Cookies
These cookies may be set through our website by our advertising partners. They may be used by those companies to build a profile of your interests and show you relevant advertisements on other sites. They do not store directly personal information but are based on uniquely identifying your browser and internet device. If you do not allow these cookies, you will experience less targeted advertising.
