Cookie Policy

Last Updated: April 15, 2026

1. Introduction

Welcome to Pizza Ranch ("we," "us," or "our"). This Cookie Policy describes what cookies are, how we use them on our website ranch-piz.top, and your rights and choices regarding cookies. This policy should be read alongside our Privacy Policy, which provides additional information about how we collect, use, and protect your personal data.

We are committed to being transparent about the technologies we use. Like most modern websites, ranch-piz.top uses cookies and similar tracking technologies to enhance your browsing experience, analyze site traffic, and deliver personalized content and advertisements.

If you have any questions about our use of cookies, please contact us at [email protected].

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. These files are stored by your web browser and contain information that can be read by the website that placed them or, in some cases, by third-party services.

Cookies serve many different purposes. Some cookies are essential for the basic operation of a website — without them, certain features simply would not work. Others are used to remember your preferences, analyze how you use the site, or deliver targeted advertising based on your browsing behavior.

2.1 How Cookies Work

When you visit ranch-piz.top for the first time, our server sends a cookie to your browser, which stores it on your device. Each time you return to our website, your browser sends this cookie back to our server, allowing the site to recognize your device and recall information about your previous visits. This process happens automatically and typically in the background without you being aware of it.

Cookies are not programs and cannot be used to run or install software on your device. They cannot access or read other data stored on your device, and a properly implemented cookie from one website cannot be accessed by another website.

2.2 Cookie Duration

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

• Session Cookies: These temporary cookies expire and are automatically deleted when you close your browser. They are used to maintain your session as you navigate through the site.
• Persistent Cookies: These cookies remain on your device for a specified period of time, or until you manually delete them. They are used to remember your preferences and recognize you on return visits.

2.3 First-Party vs. Third-Party Cookies

• First-Party Cookies: Set directly by ranch-piz.top and only accessible by our website.
• Third-Party Cookies: Set by external services that we use on our website, such as Google Analytics, Google Ads, and social media platforms. These third parties may use their own cookies to track your activity across multiple websites.

3. Types of Cookies We Use

Pizza Ranch uses four main categories of cookies on ranch-piz.top. Below, we describe each category and explain its purpose.

3.1 Strictly Necessary / Essential Cookies

These cookies are fundamental to the operation of our website. Without them, key features such as secure login, shopping cart functionality, or page navigation would not work properly. Because they are essential, these cookies cannot be disabled through our cookie management tools. However, you can always block or delete them through your browser settings, though this may significantly affect your ability to use the website.

Essential cookies may be used for purposes such as:

• Maintaining your session as you move between pages
• Remembering items you have added to your online order
• Ensuring secure connections and fraud prevention
• Complying with legal requirements

3.2 Analytics and Performance Cookies

Analytics cookies help us understand how visitors interact with our website. They collect information about which pages you visit, how long you spend on them, any errors you encounter, and how you arrived at the site. All data collected is aggregated and anonymized — no personally identifiable information is gathered through these cookies.

We use this information to improve the performance and user experience of ranch-piz.top, identify popular content, and diagnose technical issues. We primarily use Google Analytics for this purpose.

3.3 Functional Cookies

Functional cookies allow our website to remember choices you have made in the past — such as your preferred language, location, or the last pizza you ordered — and provide enhanced, personalized features. These cookies may be set by us or by third-party providers whose services we have integrated into our website.

If you disable these cookies, some or all of these enhanced features may not function correctly. For example, we may not be able to remember your preferences for your next visit.

3.4 Advertising and Targeting Cookies

Advertising cookies are used to deliver advertisements that are more relevant to you and your interests. They are also used to limit the number of times you see an advertisement and to help measure the effectiveness of advertising campaigns. These cookies are typically placed by third-party advertising networks such as Google Ads and are linked to site functionality provided by those third parties.

These cookies track your browsing habits across websites and build a profile of your interests. If you do not allow these cookies, you will still see advertisements, but they will be less targeted to your interests.
