What personal data we collect and why we collect it

We strive to keep personal data collection to an absolute minimum and strictly for cases of website analytics and communication initiated by the user. Because we do participate in advertising and affiliate programs, however, we do expose the user to the data collection practices of third party entities. Please see the “Cookies and Web beacons” clause below for more information on this. 

No financial data is collected or stored by Tikiflamingo.com.
