Consistent with the requirements of the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA), we do not knowingly collect, use, or disclose personal information from children under the age of 13 without verifiable parental consent. Furthermore, in alignment with our terms of service, we require all users to be at least 18 years of age.

If we become aware that we have inadvertently collected personal information from a child under 13 (or under 18, as applicable), we will take immediate steps to delete that information from our records. If you are a parent or guardian and believe that your child has provided personal information to us without your consent, please contact us immediately at [email protected].

We encourage parents and guardians to monitor their children's internet usage and to help enforce this Privacy Policy by instructing their children never to provide personal information through our Services without parental permission.


12. International Data Transfers

Pizzana is based in the United States, and the information we collect is governed by U.S. law. Our servers and operations are primarily located within the United States. However, some of our third-party service providers may be located in or operate from countries outside the United States.

If you are accessing our Services from outside the United States, please be aware that your information may be transferred to, stored, and processed in the United States, where our servers are located and our central database is operated. Data protection laws in the United States may differ from those in your country of residence.

By using our Services, you consent to the transfer of your information to the United States and other countries where our service providers may operate, to the extent permitted by applicable law. We take steps to ensure that appropriate safeguards are in place when transferring data internationally, including entering into data processing agreements with our service providers that incorporate standard contractual clauses or other recognized mechanisms for international data transfers.


13. Third-Party Links and Services

Our website may contain links to third-party websites, applications, or services that are not owned or controlled by Pizzana. This Privacy Policy applies only to our Services and does not cover the privacy practices of any third parties. We have no control over and assume no responsibility for the content, privacy policies, or practices of any third-party sites or services.

We encourage you to review the privacy policies of any third-party websites or services you visit. The inclusion of a link on our website does not imply our endorsement of that site or service.

When you use third-party payment services to complete a transaction on our website, those transactions are subject to the privacy policies of those third-party services. We encourage you to review the privacy policies of any payment processor you use.


14. Do Not Track Signals

Some browsers have a "Do Not Track" (DNT) feature that signals to websites that you do not want to have your online activities tracked. Because there is currently no uniform standard for recognizing and implementing DNT signals, our website does not currently respond to browser DNT signals.

However, you can use some of the privacy choices described in this Privacy Policy (such as cookie management and opting out of marketing) to limit the collection and use of your data. We will continue to monitor developments related to DNT and update our practices as industry standards evolve.

For California residents, please note that we do not engage in the sale of personal information as defined under the CCPA/CPRA, and we do not share personal information for cross-context behavioral advertising in a manner that would require a DNT response under applicable law.

  • Displaying a prominent notice on our website prior to the change becoming effective.

We encourage you to review this Privacy Policy periodically to stay informed about how we are protecting your information. Your continued use of our Services after any changes to this Privacy Policy constitutes your acceptance of the revised policy. If you do not agree with the changes, you should discontinue use of our Services and, if applicable, delete your account.
