Our Commitment to Privacy
At Flash Deals, we take your trust seriously. This Privacy Policy details the types of information we gather, how we process it, and the security systems we use to defend your data when you search for flights, hotels, and travel coupons.
1. Information We Collect
We collect information in several ways to support your search experience. This includes:
- Direct Inputs: If you sign up for our newsletter, enter details on our contact forms, or send an inquiry, we collect your email address, name, and any messages.
- Automated Data: When you navigate our pages, we gather device and connection details (like IP address, operating system, and browser version) and usage information (such as links clicked and pages viewed).
2. How We Use Your Information
Your data is used to maintain, protect, and optimize our deal aggregating platform. Specific purposes include:
- Sending customized newsletter alerts for flight, hotel, and ferry promotions.
- Answering user queries received via contact forms.
- Analyzing traffic behavior to adjust layout spacing, sizing, and load speeds.
- Preventing malicious script behavior, spam submissions, or scraping activities.
3. Cookies & Tracking Technologies
Flash Deals utilizes tracking cookies, pixel trackers, and local storage keys to customize your experience:
Cookies help us identify if you have already set your travel preferences or selector choices, allowing us to keep preferred airlines or booking sites at the top of your list. You can customize cookie policies inside your specific browser preferences panel.
4. Third-Party Sharing
We work as an affiliate travel coupon platform. We display links direct to providers like Agoda, Expedia, Etihad, and British Airways.
We do not sell, trade, or lease your personally identifiable data to outside parties. However, when you click an outbound link to redeem a discount coupon, you are redirected to the target airline or hotel website, which maintains its own distinct privacy regulations.
5. Data Protection
We employ high-grade security configurations including Secure Socket Layer (SSL) transmission channels, database firewalls, and regular vulnerability scanning to ensure your input data is secure. No transmission pathway over the web is completely invulnerable, but we apply commercial-grade standards to prevent leaks.
6. Your Data Rights
You have full authority over your data. Under digital regulations (like GDPR and CCPA), you are eligible to:
- Request access to copies of any information we have saved about your profile.
- Ask to modify, correct, or update outdated email addresses or credentials.
- Request full removal of your information from our newsletter distributions.
