Cookie Policy

Last Updated: April 2, 2026

1. Introduction

Welcome to Green Lantern Pizza ("we," "us," or "our"). This Cookie Policy applies to our website greenlanternpizzas.click and explains how we use cookies and similar technologies when you visit our site, place an order, or interact with our online content.

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 our use of cookies, you can adjust your browser settings or opt out as described below — though this may affect certain features of our website.

This policy should be read alongside our Privacy Policy and Terms of Service, which provide additional information about how we handle your personal data.

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, improve user experience, and provide reporting information.

Cookies set by the website owner (in this case, Green Lantern Pizza) are called "first-party cookies." Cookies set by parties other than the website owner are called "third-party cookies." Third-party cookies enable third-party features or functionality to be provided on or through the website — for example, advertising, interactive content, and analytics.

2.1 How Do Cookies Work?

When you visit our website for the first time, our server sends a cookie to your browser, which stores it on your device. Each time you return to our site, your browser sends the cookie back to our server. This allows our website to recognize your device and remember information about your visit — such as your preferred language, items in your cart, or whether you've already agreed to our cookie policy.

Cookies can be "session cookies" or "persistent cookies." Session cookies are temporary and are deleted from your device when you close your browser. Persistent cookies remain on your device for a set period of time or until you manually delete them.

2.2 Similar Technologies

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

  • Web Beacons (Pixel Tags): Small 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 feature in web browsers that allows websites to store data locally on your device.
  • Session Storage: Similar to local storage but data is only retained for the duration of your browser session.
  • Scripts: Pieces of JavaScript code that collect information about how you interact with our website.

3. Types of Cookies We Use

We use four main categories of cookies on our website. Below is a detailed explanation of each category and why we use them.

3.1 Strictly Necessary / Essential Cookies

These cookies are essential for the operation of our website. Without them, services you have asked for — such as adding items to your cart, logging into your account, or completing a pizza order — cannot be provided. These cookies do not gather information about you that could be used for marketing or remembering your browsing history.

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 some parts of the website will not work as a result.

3.2 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 which pages are the most and least popular and how visitors navigate around the site. All information collected by these cookies is aggregated and therefore anonymous.

We primarily use Google Analytics for this purpose, which helps us understand how customers interact with our menu pages, ordering flow, and promotional content.

3.3 Functional Cookies

These cookies enable the 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. If you do not allow these cookies, some or all of these services may not function properly. For example, these cookies allow us to remember your location preferences for delivery, your previously ordered items, or your language preferences.

3.4 Advertising / Targeting Cookies

These cookies are set through our website by our advertising partners. They may be used by those companies to build a profile of your interests and show you relevant advertisements on other sites. They work by uniquely identifying your browser and internet device. If you do not allow these cookies, you will experience less targeted advertising. We use these cookies in connection with Google Ads and similar platforms to measure the effectiveness of our promotional campaigns for Green Lantern Pizza specials, discounts, and new menu items.
