Last Updated: April 3, 2026
1. Introduction
Welcome to modpizza.digital. This Cookie Policy is designed to help you understand what cookies are, how we use them, and what choices you have regarding their use. We are committed to being transparent about the technologies we use on our website and how they may affect your browsing experience.
This policy applies to all visitors, users, and customers who access our website at modpizza.digital. Please read this policy carefully alongside our Privacy Policy and Terms of Service, which together govern your use of our website and services.
By 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 adjust your browser settings or opt out as described in Section 7 of this policy. Please note, however, that disabling certain cookies may affect the functionality of our website.
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. These files are stored in your web browser and allow websites and third-party services to recognize your device during your current visit and on future visits.
Cookies serve a wide range of purposes. Some cookies are essential for the operation of a website — for example, they allow you to log into secure areas or add items to an online shopping cart. Other cookies are used to remember your preferences and settings, so you do not need to re-enter them every time you visit. Still others help website owners understand how visitors interact with their site, enabling improvements to the user experience.
In addition to cookies, we may also use similar tracking technologies such as:
- Web Beacons (Pixel Tags): Small transparent images embedded in web pages or emails that track whether a page or email has been viewed.
- Local Storage: Data stored locally in your browser that persists even after the browser window is closed.
- Session Storage: Data stored in your browser that is cleared when the browser session ends.
- Fingerprinting: A technique that collects information about your device's settings and configurations to create a unique identifier.
For the purposes of this Cookie Policy, all references to "cookies" include these similar technologies unless otherwise specified.
