Last Updated: April 15, 2026  |  Effective Date: April 15, 2026

1. Introduction

Welcome to Wing Snob. We operate the website wingsnobchick.top and are committed to being transparent about the technologies we use to power and improve our online services. This Cookie Policy forms part of our broader Privacy Policy and is intended to give you clear, accessible information about what cookies are, how we use them, and what choices you have.

This policy applies to all visitors, users, and customers who interact with our website. If you have questions about how we handle your personal data more generally, please refer to our full Privacy Policy or contact us directly using the details provided at the end of this document.

As a food service business operating in the United States, we are committed to complying with applicable privacy and data protection laws, including the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) as amended by the California Privacy Rights Act (CPRA), and applicable Federal Trade Commission (FTC) guidelines regarding online tracking and advertising disclosures.

2. What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files that are placed on your device — such as your computer, smartphone, or tablet — when you visit a website. They are widely used across the internet to make websites work more efficiently, to remember your preferences, and to provide website operators and third parties with information about how users interact with their sites.

Each cookie typically contains the following information:

  • The name of the cookie
  • The domain that set the cookie
  • An expiration date (how long the cookie will remain on your device)
  • A value (the data stored in the cookie)

Cookies can be either session cookies, which are temporary and deleted when you close your browser, or persistent cookies, which remain on your device for a set period of time or until you manually delete them.

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 has been viewed or an email has been opened.
  • Local storage objects: Data stored locally in your browser that functions similarly to cookies but with greater storage capacity.
  • Fingerprinting: A technique that collects information about your device's configuration to create a unique identifier.

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

3. How We Use Cookies

Wing Snob uses cookies for a variety of purposes that help us deliver a better experience on our website and improve our food ordering and customer service capabilities. Specifically, we use cookies to:

  • Ensure the website functions properly and securely
  • Remember your preferences and settings (such as your location or past orders)
  • Analyze how visitors use our website so we can improve it
  • Measure the effectiveness of our marketing and advertising campaigns
  • Personalize content and advertisements based on your interests
  • Facilitate social media sharing and integrations
  • Prevent fraud and enhance the security of our platform

4. Types of Cookies We Use

We categorize the cookies used on wingsnobchick.top into four main types:

4.1 Strictly Necessary / Essential Cookies

These cookies are essential for the website to function and cannot be switched off in our systems. They are usually set in response to actions you take, such as setting your privacy preferences, logging in, filling in forms, or adding items to an online order. Without these cookies, certain parts of our website would not work.

These cookies do not store any personally identifiable information and are not used for marketing purposes. They are always active on our website.

4.2 Analytics and Performance Cookies

These cookies allow us to count visits and traffic sources so we can measure and improve the performance of our website. They help us understand which pages are most and least popular, how visitors move around the site, and where visitors come from. All information collected by these cookies is aggregated and therefore anonymous.

If you do not allow these cookies, we will not know when you have visited our site and will not be able to monitor its performance. We primarily use Google Analytics for this purpose.

4.3 Functional Cookies

These cookies enable enhanced functionality and personalization, such as remembering your name or location when you return to our website, or pre-filling your order preferences. They may be set by us or by third-party providers whose services we use on our pages.

If you do not allow these cookies, some or all of these services may not function properly, and you may have a less personalized experience.

4.4 Advertising and Targeting Cookies

These cookies may be set through our website by our advertising partners. They may be used by those companies to build a profile of your interests and show you relevant advertisements on other sites. They do not store directly personal information, but are based on uniquely identifying your browser and internet device.

If you do not allow these cookies, you will experience less targeted advertising. We use Google Ads and may integrate with platforms such as Meta (Facebook/Instagram) for remarketing purposes.
