Cookie Policy

This Cookie Policy explains how Church's Chicken ("we," "us," or "our"), operating through the website churchickens.top, uses cookies and similar tracking technologies when you visit our website. Please read this policy carefully to understand what cookies are, how we use them, and how you can manage your preferences.

1. 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. These files are stored in your browser's folder and are sent back to the originating website each time you return to it, or to another website that recognizes those cookies. Cookies were designed to be a reliable mechanism for websites to remember stateful information or to record your browsing activity.

Cookies serve many different purposes. Some cookies are strictly necessary to allow a website to function properly, while others help the website owner understand how visitors interact with their site, remember your preferences, or deliver targeted advertising based on your interests.

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

• Web Beacons (Pixel Tags): Tiny invisible images embedded in web pages or emails that track whether a page or email has been opened and which links were clicked.
• Local Storage: A feature in modern browsers that allows websites to store data locally on your device, which persists even after you close the browser.
• Session Storage: Similar to local storage, but data is cleared when the browser session ends.
• JavaScript Tags: Small pieces of code that collect information about how you interact with our website.
• Device Fingerprinting: A technique used to identify your device based on its unique characteristics, such as browser type, screen resolution, and installed fonts.

Throughout this policy, when we refer to "cookies," we include all of these similar technologies unless stated otherwise.

2. How We Use Cookies

We use cookies and similar tracking technologies for a variety of purposes on churchickens.top. These purposes include, but are not limited to:

• Ensuring Website Functionality: Some cookies are essential for our website to operate correctly. Without them, services you have requested — such as placing an online order or accessing secure areas of the site — cannot be provided.
• Improving Website Performance: We use analytics cookies to understand how visitors use our website, identify which pages are most popular, detect errors, and continuously improve our online experience.
• Remembering Your Preferences: Functional cookies allow our website to remember choices you make, such as your preferred language, region, or any customizations you have applied, so you do not have to reset your preferences on each visit.
• Delivering Targeted Advertising: Advertising cookies track your browsing behavior across our website and other websites to build a profile of your interests and deliver advertisements that are more relevant to you.
• Measuring Marketing Effectiveness: We use cookies to track the effectiveness of our marketing campaigns and understand which channels bring visitors to our website.
• Security: Certain cookies help us detect and prevent fraudulent activity, unauthorized access, and other security threats.

3. Types of Cookies We Use

We categorize the cookies we use into four main types, as described below:

3.1 Essential (Strictly Necessary) Cookies

These cookies are absolutely necessary for our website to function properly. They enable core features such as security, network management, and accessibility. Because these cookies are essential to the operation of our website, they cannot be disabled through our cookie management tools. You may be able to disable them through your browser settings, but this may affect how the website functions.

3.2 Analytics and Performance Cookies

These cookies collect information about how visitors use our website — for example, which pages are visited most often and whether users receive error messages. All information collected by these cookies is aggregated and therefore anonymous. We use this information to improve how our website works and to understand user behavior patterns.

3.3 Functional Cookies

Functional cookies allow our website to remember choices you make and provide enhanced, more personalized features. For example, these cookies can remember your username, language preference, or the region you are in. They may also be used to provide services you have requested, such as watching a video or commenting on a blog. The information these cookies collect may be anonymized, and they cannot track your browsing activity on other websites.

3.4 Advertising and Targeting Cookies

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