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.

Cookies are sent back to the originating website on each subsequent visit, or to another website that recognizes that cookie. Cookies are useful because they allow a website to recognize a user's device and remember information about your visit, such as your preferences, settings, and actions.

Cookies do not typically contain any information that personally identifies you, but personal information that we store about you may be linked to the information stored in and obtained from cookies. For more information about how we handle your personal data, please refer to our Privacy Policy.

2.1 How Do Cookies Work?

When you visit primohoagies-eat.digital, our web server sends a cookie to your browser, which stores it as a small file on your device. Each time you return to our website, your browser sends the cookie back to our server, allowing us to recognize your device and remember your preferences.

Cookies can be set by the website you are visiting (known as "first-party cookies") or by third-party services operating on that website (known as "third-party cookies"). Both types of cookies may be used on our website.

2.2 Similar Tracking Technologies

In addition to cookies, we may use other similar technologies such as:

  • Web Beacons (Pixel Tags): Tiny graphic images 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 browser feature that allows websites to store data locally within your browser, similar to cookies but with greater storage capacity.
  • Session Storage: Similar to local storage, but data is cleared when the browser session ends.
  • JavaScript Tags: Small pieces of code that collect information about how you interact with our website.

For the purposes of this Cookie Policy, all of these technologies are collectively referred to as "cookies."
