Welcome to Via 313's Cookie Policy. Via 313 ("we," "us," or "our") operates the website via313pizza.digital (the "Website"). This Cookie Policy is designed to help you understand what cookies are, how we use them on our Website, and what choices you have regarding their use.
We are committed to being transparent about the data we collect through cookies and how it is used. This policy should be read alongside our Privacy Policy, which provides further information about how we collect, use, and protect your personal information.
This Cookie Policy applies to all visitors and users of via313pizza.digital. By accessing or using our Website, you acknowledge that you have read and understood this Cookie Policy. If you do not agree to our use of cookies, you may disable them through your browser settings or our cookie preference tools, as described in Section 7 of this policy.
2. What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files that are placed on your computer, smartphone, tablet, or other internet-connected device when you visit a website. They are widely used by website operators to make websites work more efficiently, to improve the user experience, and to provide reporting information.
Cookies are created by a web server and stored in your web browser. Every time you revisit the website, your browser sends the cookie back to the server, allowing the website to recognize your device and remember information about your preferences or actions over time.
Cookies can be classified in several ways:
- First-Party Cookies: These are cookies set directly by Via 313 through our Website.
- Third-Party Cookies: These are cookies set by third parties, such as Google or social media platforms, through content embedded on our Website.
- Session Cookies: These are temporary cookies that are deleted when you close your browser. They help maintain your session as you navigate between pages.
- Persistent Cookies: These cookies remain on your device for a specified period or until you delete them manually. They are activated each time you visit the website that created them.
3. Similar Tracking Technologies
In addition to cookies, we may use other similar tracking technologies on our Website, including:
- Web Beacons (Pixel Tags): These are tiny, invisible graphic images embedded in web pages or emails that allow us or third parties to track page visits, email opens, and related user interactions.
- Local Storage: Some browsers support local storage, which functions similarly to cookies but can store larger amounts of data and is not automatically transmitted to the server with each request.
- JavaScript Tags: Small pieces of code embedded in our Website that collect and transmit data about user behavior and interactions.
- Device Fingerprinting: A technique that collects information about your browser and device settings to create a unique identifier for your device.
For the purposes of this Cookie Policy, all references to "cookies" include these similar technologies unless otherwise specified.
4. Types of Cookies We Use
We use the following categories of cookies on via313pizza.digital:
4.1 Strictly Necessary (Essential) Cookies
These cookies are essential for the operation of our Website and cannot be switched off in our systems. They are usually set only in response to actions made by you, such as setting your privacy preferences, logging in, or filling in forms. Without these cookies, certain parts of our Website would not function properly.
Because these cookies are strictly necessary for the Website to function, they do not require your consent under applicable law. However, you can still block them through your browser settings, although this may affect how the Website works.
4.2 Analytics and Performance Cookies
These cookies help us understand how visitors interact with our Website by collecting and reporting information anonymously. They allow us to count visits, traffic sources, and learn which pages are most and least popular. All information these cookies collect is aggregated and therefore anonymous. These cookies help us improve the performance of our Website.
We use Google Analytics to analyze user behavior on our Website. Google Analytics uses cookies to track user interactions and generates statistical reports about Website traffic. The information generated by these cookies about your use of our Website may be transmitted to and stored by Google on servers in the United States. Google may use this information to evaluate your use of our Website, compile reports on Website activity for website operators, and provide other services relating to Website activity and internet usage.
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. Functional cookies help us remember your preferences and settings, such as your language preference, region, or saved items.
If you do not allow these cookies, some or all of these services may not function properly, and your experience may be less personalized.
4.4 Advertising and Targeting Cookies
These cookies are used to deliver advertisements that are relevant to you and your interests. They may be set through our Website by our advertising partners. These cookies track your browsing activity across different websites and build a profile of your interests to display relevant ads. They do not directly store personal information, but are based on uniquely identifying your browser and internet device.
We use Google Ads cookies to track the effectiveness of our advertising campaigns and to serve targeted advertisements to users who have previously visited our Website.
