Welcome to Wing Snob ("we," "us," or "our"). This Cookie Policy applies to the website wingsnobchick.click (the "Website") and explains how Wing Snob uses cookies and similar tracking technologies when you visit, browse, or interact with our Website.
By continuing to use our Website, you acknowledge and consent to our use of cookies as described in this policy. If you do not agree to our use of cookies, you may disable them through your browser settings or opt-out tools described below — however, please be aware that doing so may affect certain features and functionality of the Website.
This Cookie Policy should be read alongside our Privacy Policy, which provides further details about how we collect, use, and protect your personal information in accordance with applicable United States laws, including the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) as amended by the California Privacy Rights Act (CPRA), and the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) Act.
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. These files are sent back to the originating website on each subsequent visit, or to another website that recognizes that cookie. Cookies are widely used by website owners to make their websites work, improve user experience, and provide reporting and analytics information.
Cookies perform many different functions, including:
- Remembering your preferences: Cookies help websites remember information about your visit, such as your preferred language or settings, making your next visit easier and the site more useful to you.
- Keeping you signed in: Cookies can keep you logged into accounts so you don't have to re-enter your credentials every time you visit.
- Understanding how you use the site: Cookies help us understand which pages are most popular, how visitors move around the site, and where they come from, so we can improve our Website.
- Delivering relevant advertising: Cookies help ensure that the advertisements you see online are more relevant to you and your interests.
2.1 Types of Cookies by Origin
Cookies can be classified by who sets them:
- First-party cookies: These are cookies set directly by Wing Snob (or by a third party on our behalf) on our Website domain (wingsnobchick.click). They are used to operate and improve our Website.
- Third-party cookies: These are cookies set by third-party companies (such as Google, Facebook, or other analytics and advertising providers) on our Website. These companies may use the data collected to serve advertising on other websites you visit.
2.2 Types of Cookies by Duration
- Session cookies: These are temporary cookies that remain in your browser's cookie file only until you close your browser. After you close your browser, these cookies are automatically deleted.
- Persistent cookies: These cookies remain on your device for a set period of time specified in the cookie, or until you manually delete them. They are activated each time you visit the website that created that particular cookie.
3. Categories of Cookies We Use
Wing Snob uses the following categories of cookies on wingsnobchick.click:
3.1 Strictly Necessary / Essential Cookies
These cookies are essential for the Website to function properly. Without them, certain services you have requested cannot be provided. These cookies do not gather information about you for marketing purposes. Because they are strictly necessary for the Website to work, you cannot opt out of essential cookies through our cookie settings — though you can disable them in your browser settings (which may affect the Website's functionality).
Essential cookies help us with things like:
- Ensuring secure navigation through the Website
- Enabling online ordering and form submissions
- Maintaining your session while you browse
- Remembering items you have added to a cart or order
- Complying with legal requirements and security measures
3.2 Analytics and Performance Cookies
These cookies collect information about how visitors use our Website, for example which pages visitors visit most often and whether they receive error messages from web pages. These cookies do not collect information that identifies a visitor directly — all information these cookies collect is aggregated and therefore anonymous. We use this information to improve how our Website works and to understand visitor behavior.
We use Google Analytics to collect analytics information. Google Analytics uses cookies to collect data about how users interact with our Website, including the pages they visit, the time they spend on those pages, and their general geographic location (at the city level).
3.3 Functional Cookies
These cookies allow the Website to remember choices you make (such as your preferred language, location, or other settings) and provide enhanced, more personalized features. These cookies may also be used to provide services you have requested. If you do not allow these cookies, some or all of these services may not function properly.
Functional cookies on our Website may be used to:
- Remember your location preferences for finding nearby Wing Snob locations
- Customize your browsing experience based on previous visits
- Remember preferences for menu display or content settings
- Enable embedded content such as videos or maps
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 and help measure the effectiveness of advertising campaigns. They are usually placed by third-party 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. This means that after you have been to our website, you may see some advertisements about Wing Snob elsewhere on the internet.
We use Google Ads (formerly Google AdWords) and may use other advertising platforms. These services use cookies to track conversions and display targeted advertisements.

6.3 Do Not Track Signals
Some browsers offer a "Do Not Track" (DNT) feature that signals to websites that you do not wish to have your online activity tracked.

However, we do provide the opt-out mechanisms described in this section that allow you to limit tracking where possible.
7. Impact of Disabling Cookies
Disabling cookies may affect your experience on our Website. The specific impacts depend on which type of cookies you disable:
What Happens If You Disable Cookies?
- Essential cookies disabled: The Website may not function correctly. You may be unable to complete online orders, use certain features, or navigate securely through the Website. We strongly recommend keeping essential cookies enabled.
- Analytics cookies disabled: We will not be able to collect anonymous data about how you use our Website. This does not significantly impact your experience, but it limits our ability to improve the Website based on user behavior data.
- Functional cookies disabled: Your preferences may not be saved between visits. You may need to re-enter your location, reset display preferences, or reconfigure personalization settings each time you visit.
- Advertising cookies disabled: You will still see advertisements, but they may be less relevant to your interests. You may also see the same ads more frequently, as frequency capping (which limits how often you see the same ad) relies on advertising cookies.
