5. Links and cookies
The Agence FLAURE site contains a number of links to other sites (partners, information, etc.), set up with the site owner’s permission. However, the owner of the Agence FLAURE site cannot check the content of the sites visited in this way and therefore accepts no liability for any risk of unlawful content.
