Strictly necessary
These keep the site functioning. They maintain a session while you move between pages and remember a form submission so it does not reset when you return. Blocking them can break parts of the site.

Cookie Policy
How pizzadions.site uses cookies, which categories may be set, and how to control them in your own browser.
This Cookie Policy explains how pizzadions.site uses cookies and similar technologies, what categories of cookies may be set, and how you can control them. It should be read together with the Privacy Policy, which covers personal information more broadly.
It applies to every visitor browsing Dion's Pizza Cookbook, whether you are here to look through pizza styles, check the baking guide, or buy the cookbook. Nothing in this policy changes what we say about personal data elsewhere; it only adds detail about the small files your browser stores when you visit.
Definitions
What cookies are
Cookies are small text files stored on your device by your browser when you visit a site. They allow a site to remember your actions and preferences over time, such as language or form state.
Similar technologies, including local storage, work in comparable ways and are covered by this policy. Local storage keeps small amounts of data in your browser without sending it with every request, while a cookie is passed back to the server. Both can be cleared from your browser settings.
A cookie on its own is not a way to identify you personally. It carries a short identifier, an expiry, and a purpose. Cookies do not read other files on your device, and they cannot see anything you keep outside the browser you are using.
Categories of cookies we use
Cookies on this site fall into a few categories. Each one has a narrow job, and none of them is used to build advertising profiles.
Analytics
These help us understand general traffic patterns, such as which pages are visited and how long a visit lasts. The reports are aggregated, so we read them as totals rather than as a record of one person.
Preference
These remember settings you have chosen, so the page does not ask the same question twice. Clearing them simply means you may need to set your preferences again on your next visit.
We do not use cookies to build advertising profiles, and we do not sell information collected through them. If a future version of Dion's Pizza Cookbook adds a category not listed here, this page will be updated before that change goes live.
Cookies set by third parties
Some features may rely on third-party services, such as hosting, embedded content, or analytics. These services may set their own cookies when you interact with them. We do not control those cookies directly, and their use is governed by the respective provider's policies.
If you want to limit what a third party can set, the reliable place to start is your browser's third-party cookie setting. Most browsers let you block third-party cookies entirely without affecting the pages you read here.

The list describes the kinds of services involved. The exact set can change as features are added or removed, which is why this page is reviewed alongside any update.
Why we use cookies
Cookies help the site work correctly and help us understand how it is used, so we can improve the pages you actually read.
Analytics cookies show us which pages are most useful, so we can improve the content. Necessary cookies make sure forms submit properly and pages load as expected. None of this is used to identify you personally for marketing purposes.
If a page about a specific pizza style turns out to be read far more often than another, that tells us where to put more detail. If a form quietly fails, the necessary cookie behind it helps us notice. Those are the questions the data is meant to answer.
Managing cookies in your browser
You can control or delete cookies through your browser settings. Most browsers let you block all cookies, block third-party cookies, or delete cookies after each session. Blocking necessary cookies may break parts of the site, including form submission.
Instructions are available in your browser's help section. On mobile browsers the setting is usually under privacy or site data rather than under a general settings menu.
How do I block all cookies?
Open your browser settings and find the privacy or site data section. Every major browser offers a block-all option there. Expect some parts of any site to stop working once cookies are fully blocked, which is why many people prefer to block only third-party cookies.
Can I delete cookies already stored?
Yes. Browsers keep a list of stored cookies under privacy or site data, and you can remove them individually or all at once. Clearing them does not break your account or order history with any business; it only removes the small files this site and others have saved.
Does blocking cookies change the recipes or pages I can read?
Reading pages is unaffected. What can change is how the site remembers you: a form might reset, or a preference you set may not persist to your next visit. The content itself is served the same way to every visitor.
Do private browsing windows change anything?
Private or incognito windows discard most cookies when you close them. A page still works normally while the window is open, but preferences you set will not carry over to your next session.
Consent and changes
Reviewed with each updateConsent
Where required by applicable law, we ask for your consent before setting non-essential cookies. You can withdraw consent at any time by adjusting your browser settings or contacting us. Withdrawing it does not affect anything done before you withdrew.
Changes to this policy
We may update this policy to reflect changes in the cookies we use or in applicable law. The revised version will be posted on this page, and the date at the top of the page will move forward with it. Continuing to use the site after an update means you accept the revised version.
