1. Introduction

Wing Snob is committed to being transparent about how we collect and use data related to your browsing experience on our website. This Cookie Policy provides detailed information about what cookies are, the types of cookies we use, how we use them, and the choices you have regarding their use.

This policy should be read alongside our Privacy Policy, which provides broader information about how we collect, use, and protect your personal information in compliance with applicable United States federal and state laws, including the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) and the California Privacy Rights Act (CPRA), where applicable, as well as the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) Act governing consumer protection.

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 to make websites work more efficiently, improve user experience, and provide information to website owners.

Cookies are created by your web browser when you visit a website. The website sends information to your browser, which then creates a text file on your device. Every time you return to that website, your browser retrieves and sends this file to the website's server.

Cookies can be classified in two broad categories based on their origin and duration:

First-party cookies — These are cookies set directly by Wing Snob when you visit wingsnobfood.click.
Third-party cookies — These are cookies set by a domain other than our website, such as analytics providers, advertising networks, or social media platforms.
Session cookies — These are temporary cookies that are deleted from your device when you close your web browser.
Persistent cookies — These remain on your device for a set period of time or until you manually delete them.

In addition to cookies, we may also use similar tracking technologies such as web beacons (also known as pixel tags or clear GIFs), local storage objects, and scripts. These technologies work similarly to cookies and may be used to track your activities across websites and services.

3. Why Do We Use Cookies?

Wing Snob uses cookies for a variety of important reasons, including:

To ensure our website functions correctly and securely.
To remember your preferences and personalize your experience.
To understand how visitors interact with our website so we can improve it.
To measure the effectiveness of our marketing campaigns.
To show you relevant advertisements based on your interests.
To enable social media features and integrations.
To detect and prevent fraudulent activity and maintain website security.

4. Types of Cookies We Use

We categorize the cookies we use into four main types: Essential, Functional, Analytics, and Advertising. Below is a detailed explanation of each category.

4.1 Essential Cookies

Essential cookies (also called strictly necessary cookies) are required for our website to operate correctly. Without these cookies, certain parts of our website may not function properly. These cookies do not collect any personally identifiable information and cannot be disabled without affecting core website functionality.

Essential cookies enable features such as:

Navigating between pages and using secure areas of the website.
Remembering items in your online order or cart.
Maintaining your session while using the website.
Applying security measures to prevent unauthorized access.

4.2 Functional Cookies

Functional cookies allow our website to remember choices you make (such as your preferred language, location, or display settings) and provide enhanced, more personalized features. These cookies may be set by us or by third-party providers whose services we use.

Functional cookies enable features such as:

Remembering your preferences for future visits.
Storing your login status so you don't need to log in every time.
Enabling embedded content such as maps or video players.

4.3 Analytics Cookies

Analytics cookies help us understand how visitors interact with our website by collecting and reporting information anonymously. These cookies allow us to measure and improve the performance of our website, identify popular content, and understand how users navigate through our pages.

We use Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google LLC, to collect this information. Google Analytics uses cookies to collect standard internet log information and visitor behavior information in an anonymous form. This data helps us understand how our visitors use our website so we can make improvements.

Advertising cookies (also known as targeting or marketing cookies) are used to deliver advertisements that are relevant to you and your interests. These cookies track your browsing habits across websites and help us and our advertising partners serve you personalized ads. They also help us measure the performance of advertising campaigns.

We use Google Ads and may use other advertising platforms to serve targeted ads to users who have previously visited our website (a practice known as remarketing). The Google Ads conversion linker cookie helps us track whether users who click on our ads go on to complete a desired action on our website, such as placing an order.

Cookie Type	Impact of Disabling
Essential Cookies	Disabling these cookies will prevent core website functions from working properly. You may not be able to navigate the website, place orders, or access secure areas. We strongly advise against disabling these cookies.

8. Do Not Track Signals

Some web browsers offer a "Do Not Track" (DNT) feature that sends a signal to websites requesting that your browsing activity not be tracked. Currently, there is no universally accepted standard for how websites should respond to DNT signals. As a result, our website does not currently respond to DNT browser signals. However, you can use the opt-out tools described in Section 6 of this policy to limit tracking.

We will continue to monitor developments in DNT standards and update our practices accordingly.
