Last Updated: May 16, 2026

1. Introduction

Welcome to Pizza Ranch. We are committed to being transparent about how we collect and use data related to your browsing experience on our website, ranch-pizzadelivery.click. This Cookie Policy forms part of our overall Privacy Policy and applies to all users who visit or interact with our website.

By continuing to use our website, you acknowledge and consent to our use of cookies as described in this policy. If you do not agree to the use of cookies, you may adjust your browser settings or opt out using the tools described below. However, please note that disabling certain cookies may affect your ability to use some features of our website.

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. They are widely used by website operators to make websites work more efficiently, to provide a better user experience, and to gather information about how visitors use websites.

Cookies allow a website to recognize your device and remember information about your visit, such as your preferences, settings, and actions. Cookies do not typically contain personally identifiable information on their own, but personal information that we store about you may be linked to the information stored in and obtained from cookies.

Cookies can be set by the website you are visiting (known as "first-party cookies") or by third-party services that provide content, functionality, or analytics to that website (known as "third-party cookies").

2.1 Session Cookies vs. Persistent Cookies

Cookies can also be classified based on their duration:

  • Session Cookies: These are temporary cookies that are stored in your browser's memory only for the duration of your visit to our website. They are automatically deleted when you close your browser. Session cookies help our website function properly during a single browsing session.
  • Persistent Cookies: These cookies remain on your device for a set period of time specified in the cookie, or until you manually delete them. They are activated each time you visit the website that created the cookie. Persistent cookies help us remember your preferences and settings for future visits.

3. How Do Cookies Work?

When you visit ranch-pizzadelivery.click for the first time, our website sends a cookie to your device. Your browser stores this cookie in a designated folder. The next time you visit our website, your browser sends the cookie back to our server, allowing our website to recognize you and remember your preferences and past actions.

This process helps us deliver a more personalized and efficient browsing experience. For example, cookies can remember your location preferences, your shopping cart contents, and your login status, so you do not have to re-enter this information every time you visit.

4. Types of Cookies We Use

Pizza Ranch uses four main categories of cookies on ranch-pizzadelivery.click. These are described in detail below:

4.1 Strictly Necessary / Essential Cookies

These cookies are essential for the operation of our website. They enable core functionality such as security, network management, and accessibility. Without these cookies, services you have asked for — such as placing a pizza order or logging into your account — cannot be provided. These cookies do not collect any information that could be used for marketing purposes.

Because these cookies are strictly necessary to deliver the website to you, they cannot be switched off in our systems. You can set your browser to block or alert you about these cookies, but if you do so, some parts of the website may not work properly.

4.2 Analytics / 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 understand how visitors interact with our website — for example, which pages are most frequently visited, how long visitors spend on each page, and what errors users may encounter. All information collected by analytics cookies is aggregated and therefore anonymous.

We use Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google LLC, to analyze the use of our website. Google Analytics uses cookies to collect information about your use of our website. The information generated by these cookies (including your IP address) is transmitted to Google and stored on servers in the United States.

4.3 Functional Cookies

Functional cookies enable our 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. These cookies allow the website to remember choices you make (such as your preferred language, region, or font size) and provide enhanced, more personal features.

If you do not allow these cookies, some or all of these services may not function properly.

4.4 Advertising / Marketing Cookies

These 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 help measure the effectiveness of advertising campaigns. They are usually placed by advertising networks with our permission. They remember that you have visited our website and this information is shared with other organizations, such as advertisers.

We use Google Ads (formerly Google AdWords) conversion tracking and remarketing features. These advertising cookies allow us to show you relevant Pizza Ranch ads across the web after you have visited our website.

While you have the right to restrict or block cookies, please be aware that disabling certain types of cookies may impact your experience on our website and limit the functionality available to you. The table below summarizes the potential impact of disabling each type of cookie:

Cookie Type Impact of Disabling
Essential Cookies Our website may not function properly. You may be unable to add items to your cart, complete an order, log into your account, or access secure areas of the website. Core website functionality will be significantly impaired.
Analytics Cookies We will be unable to gather data about how visitors use our website, which means we cannot identify performance issues or areas for improvement. This will not directly affect your use of the website but may result in a less optimized experience over time.
Functional Cookies You may need to re-enter your preferences each time you visit our website. Features such as saved delivery locations, language preferences, and personalized menus may not be available.
Advertising Cookies You will still see advertisements, but they will be less relevant to your interests. You will see more generic ads rather than ads tailored to your browsing history and preferences. This will not affect your ability to use the website or place orders.

9. Do Not Track Signals

Some browsers offer a "Do Not Track" (DNT) feature that sends a signal to websites requesting that your browsing not be tracked. Currently, there is no universally accepted standard for responding to DNT signals, and our website does not respond to DNT signals at this time. However, you can use the opt-out tools described in Section 7 of this policy to limit tracking.
