You may voluntarily provide PII when You purchase products and/or services to enable Flyer to deliver the services/products that You have requested.

2. Cookies
A cookie is information saved by your web browser. When You visit a website, the site may place a cookie on your web browser so it can recognize your device in the future.

- Performance/Analytical cookies: These cookies collect information about how You use our websites. Information collected includes, for example, the Internet browsers and operating systems used, the domain name of the website previously visited, the number of visits, average duration of visit, and pages viewed.

The information these cookies collect may be anonymized, and they cannot track your browsing activity on other websites.
- Targeting and advertising cookies: These cookies track browsing habits and are used to deliver targeted (interest-based) advertising. They are also used to limit the number of times You see an ad and to measure the effectiveness of advertising campaigns. They remember that You have visited a website and this information is shared with other organizations, such as advertisers.
Our websites only use absolutely necessary cookies. You can manage a website’s cookies in your browser settings, and You always have the choice to change these settings by accepting, rejecting, or deleting cookies. If You choose to change your settings, You may find that certain functions and features on this website will not work as intended.
