The easiest way to stop cookie tracking in the Panera Bread app is to manage your phone or browser privacy settings, since Panera’s privacy page says some cookie controls are handled through web privacy options and account/privacy preferences. Panera also notes that rejecting all cookies can cause some site features to work improperly.

What to try

  1. Open Panera’s privacy or account settings and look for privacy, advertising, or tracking preferences. Panera provides a “Security and Privacy Preferences” area for managing how data is shared.
  1. If the app opens a web page for sign-in or ordering, clear or block cookies in your browser settings. On iPhone Safari, for example, you can clear website data or turn on “Block All Cookies.”
  1. If you are using Android/Chrome for Panera’s web pages, you can block third-party cookies in Chrome’s site settings.
  1. If you want the app to remember less, sign out and avoid staying logged in, then clear the app’s stored data through your phone settings if needed. This may also remove saved login info and preferences.

What to expect

Blocking cookies can break parts of the experience, such as login persistence, shopping cart behavior, or personalized settings. Panera’s privacy notice specifically warns that rejecting all cookies may make some features not work properly.

Practical note

If your goal is just fewer marketing cookies, a good middle ground is to allow essential cookies but block third-party cookies and clear site data regularly. That usually reduces tracking without fully breaking the app or ordering flow.

TL;DR: use Panera’s privacy/account settings for preference controls, and use your phone or browser settings to clear or block cookies; fully blocking them may limit app features.
