Cookie Policy

Last Updated: June 9, 2026

1. Introduction

Welcome to Primo Hoagies. This Cookie Policy applies to our website located at food-primohoagies.click (the "Website") and explains what cookies are, how we use them, what rights you have in relation to them, and how you can control your cookie preferences.

We are committed to being transparent about the technologies we use. This policy should be read alongside our Privacy Policy, which provides broader information about how we collect and process personal data. If you have any questions about our use of cookies or other tracking technologies, 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 owners to make their websites work, or to work more efficiently, as well as to provide reporting information and to personalize user experiences.

Cookies set by the website owner (in this case, Primo Hoagies) 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, such as advertising, interactive content, and analytics. The parties that set these third-party cookies can recognize your device both when it visits the website in question and when it visits certain other websites.

Cookies do not typically contain any information that personally identifies a user, but personal data that we store about you may be linked to the information stored in and obtained from cookies. Cookies may remain on your device for different periods of time. "Session cookies" only last for as long as your browser is open and are automatically deleted when you close your browser. "Persistent cookies" survive after your browser is closed and can stay on your device until they expire or you delete them.

3. Similar Tracking Technologies

In addition to cookies, we may use other similar tracking technologies on our Website, including:

  • Web Beacons (Pixel Tags): Small graphic images or pieces of code embedded in web pages or emails that allow us to determine whether you have performed a specific action, such as opening an email or clicking a link.
  • Local Storage: A browser feature that allows websites to store data locally within your browser. Unlike cookies, local storage data has no expiration time.
  • Session Storage: Similar to local storage but the data is cleared when the browser session ends.
  • JavaScript Tags: Pieces of code that help us collect information about how visitors interact with our Website.

For simplicity, we refer to all of these technologies as "cookies" throughout this policy.
