1. Introduction

Welcome to modpizzameal.digital, the official digital platform for Mod Pizza. We are committed to being transparent about how we collect information through our website and how we use that information to enhance your experience when browsing our menu, placing orders, or exploring our food offerings online.

This Cookie Policy is designed to help you understand what cookies are, what types of cookies we use, why we use them, and how you can manage your cookie preferences. This policy should be read alongside our Privacy Policy, which provides further details about how we handle your personal information.

Our website operates in accordance with applicable United States federal and state laws, including the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) Act, the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA), and the California Privacy Rights Act (CPRA) where applicable to California residents.

If you have any questions about this Cookie Policy, please contact us using the details provided at the end of this document.

2. What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files that are stored on your device (computer, tablet, smartphone, or other internet-enabled device) when you visit a website. They are widely used by website operators to make websites work more efficiently, to provide a better and more personalized user experience, and to gather information about how the website is being used.

When you visit modpizzameal.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 information about your previous visits.

Cookies do not typically contain information that directly identifies you. However, personal information that we store about you may be linked to the information stored in and obtained from cookies. Cookies cannot carry viruses or install malware on your computer.

2.1 How Cookies Work

The technical process works as follows:

  • You visit modpizzameal.digital for the first time.
  • Our server sets one or more cookies on your device via your web browser.
  • On your next visit, your browser sends those cookies back to our server.
  • Our server reads the cookie data and may use it to personalize your experience, remember your preferences, or track your activity on the site.
  • Some cookies are set by third-party services (such as Google Analytics) that appear on our pages.

2.2 Types of Cookies by Duration

Cookies can be classified based on how long they remain on your device:

  • Session Cookies: These are temporary cookies that remain on your device only during your browsing session. They are automatically deleted when you close your browser. They are typically used to maintain your session as you navigate through different pages of our website.
  • Persistent Cookies: These cookies remain on your device for a set period of time, even after you close your browser. They are activated each time you visit the website that created the cookie and are used to remember your preferences or actions across multiple sessions.

2.3 First-Party vs. Third-Party Cookies

  • First-Party Cookies: These are cookies set directly by modpizzameal.digital. They are used to improve your experience and ensure the website functions correctly.
  • Third-Party Cookies: These are cookies set by third-party services that we use, such as Google Analytics, Google Ads, and social media platforms. These third parties have their own privacy and cookie policies, and we encourage you to review them.

3. Types of Cookies We Use

We use four main categories of cookies on modpizzameal.digital. Below, we describe each category, explain why we use them, and provide information about how they impact your experience on our site.

3.1 Essential Cookies (Strictly Necessary)

Essential cookies are fundamental to the operation of our website. Without these cookies, certain core features of modpizzameal.digital would not function properly. These cookies do not collect any personally identifiable information and are not used for marketing or advertising purposes.

Essential cookies enable functions such as:

  • Keeping you logged in to your account as you navigate between pages
  • Remembering items you have added to your order or cart
  • Maintaining your session security
  • Enabling you to complete forms and submit orders
  • Ensuring the website loads correctly and displays properly on your device

Because these cookies are strictly necessary for our website to function, they cannot be disabled through our cookie management tools. However, you can still disable them through your browser settings, though doing so may significantly impact your ability to use our website.

3.2 Analytics Cookies

Analytics cookies help us understand how visitors interact with modpizzameal.digital. They collect information about which pages you visit, how long you spend on each page, what links you click, and whether you encountered any errors. This information is aggregated and anonymized, meaning it does not directly identify you as an individual.

We use this data to:

  • Analyze website traffic patterns and user behavior
  • Identify which pages and content are most popular
  • Detect technical issues and improve website performance
  • Understand how visitors find and navigate our food ordering platform
  • Make data-driven decisions to improve the overall user experience

We primarily use Google Analytics for this purpose. Google Analytics is a web analytics service provided by Google LLC. The information generated by cookies about your use of our website is generally transmitted to and stored by Google on servers in the United States.

3.3 Functional Cookies

Functional cookies enable our website to provide enhanced features and personalization. They may be set by us or by third-party providers whose services we have integrated into our website. These cookies remember your choices and preferences, such as your preferred language, your location for finding nearby Mod Pizza locations, or customizations you have made to your order.

Examples of what functional cookies enable:

  • Remembering your preferred delivery or pickup location
  • Saving your favorite menu items and customizations
  • Keeping your login session active between visits
  • Enabling live chat or customer support features
  • Storing your accessibility preferences

3.4 Advertising and Targeting Cookies

Advertising cookies are used to deliver advertisements that are relevant and engaging to you as an individual user. They are also used to track the performance of our advertising campaigns. These cookies record your visit to our website, the pages you have visited, and the links you have followed. We may use this information to make our website and the advertising displayed on it more relevant to your interests.

These cookies may be placed by our advertising partners, such as Google Ads, and they may share information with other organizations such as advertisers. This practice is sometimes called "interest-based advertising" or "online behavioral advertising."

We use Google Ads cookies to:

  • Measure the effectiveness of our digital marketing campaigns
  • Deliver targeted advertisements to users who have previously visited our website
  • Track conversions from our advertising spend (e.g., when a user clicks an ad and then places an order)
  • Optimize our advertising budget and improve our return on investment
