Welcome to chickenzchurch.click (hereinafter referred to as "we," "us," or "our website"). We are committed to being transparent about the technologies we use on our platform. This Cookie Policy is designed to help you understand what cookies are, how we use them, and the choices you have regarding their use.

This policy applies to all visitors and users of the website located at chickenzchurch.click. By accessing or using our website, you acknowledge that you have read and understood this Cookie Policy. This policy should be read in conjunction with our Privacy Policy and Terms of Service.

We operate in accordance with applicable United States federal and state privacy laws, including the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA), the California Privacy Rights Act (CPRA), and the Federal Trade Commission Act (FTC Act), as well as industry best practices for online transparency and data protection.

2. What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files that are placed on your computer, smartphone, tablet, or other device when you visit a website. These files contain data that is sent to and from your browser, allowing websites to recognize your device and remember certain information about your visit.

Cookies serve a wide variety of functions. Some are essential for the basic operation of a website, while others help website owners understand how visitors interact with their content, personalize your experience, or deliver targeted advertisements. Cookies can be set either directly by the website you are visiting (known as "first-party cookies") or by third-party services operating on that website (known as "third-party cookies").

2.1 How Cookies Work

When you visit chickenzchurch.click, our web server sends a cookie to your browser, which stores it on your device. On subsequent visits, your browser sends the cookie back to our server, enabling the site to recognize you and recall your preferences or activities. Cookies do not typically contain personally identifiable information, although they can be linked to personal data you have voluntarily provided.

Other similar tracking technologies we may use include:

  • Web Beacons (Pixel Tags): Tiny transparent images embedded in web pages or emails that track user behavior and email engagement.
  • Local Storage: A browser feature that stores data locally on your device, similar to cookies but with greater storage capacity.
  • Session Storage: Temporary data storage that is cleared when your browser session ends.
  • JavaScript Tags: Scripts embedded on our pages that collect behavioral and technical data.

3. Types of Cookies We Use

3.2 Analytics and Performance Cookies

These cookies collect information about how visitors use our website — for example, which pages are visited most frequently and whether visitors receive error messages from web pages. All data collected is aggregated and therefore anonymous. We use this information to improve the performance and usability of our website.

3.4 Advertising and Targeting Cookies

These cookies are used to deliver advertisements that are relevant to you and your interests. They are also used to limit the number of times you see an advertisement and to help measure the effectiveness of advertising campaigns. They are usually placed by third-party advertising networks with our permission. They remember that you have visited our website and this information is shared with other organizations such as advertisers.

You may be unable to complete online orders, maintain a session, or access secure areas of the website. Core features such as the shopping cart and login functionality may stop working entirely.
  • Disabling Analytics Cookies: We will no longer be able to collect information about your visit, which means we cannot analyze website performance or improve user experience based on real usage data. Your experience on our site will not be directly affected, but our ability to optimize the site for all users will be reduced.

  • Disabling Advertising Cookies: You will still see advertisements online, but they may be less relevant to your interests. Disabling these cookies does not prevent advertising; it only means that ads shown to you will not be tailored to your browsing behavior or interests.
