Our Website may use electronic cookies ("cookies") to help personalize your online experience. Cookies are a text file that websites send to a visitor's computer or other Internet-connected device to uniquely identify the visitor's browser or to store information or settings in the browser.
One of the primary purposes of cookies is to provide a convenience feature to save you time. The purpose of a cookie is to tell the web server that you have returned to a specific page. ODFL may also link certain data elements with other information we have obtained about you to let us know, for example, whether you have opened an account with us or contacted us before. We also may use third-party website analytics tools that collect information about User traffic at the Website.
In addition, ODFL uses information collected online through cookies, internet tags and other automated means for purposes such as diagnosing technical and service problems, administering the Website, identifying Users of the Website, and gathering demographic information about our Users. We use clickstream data to determine how much time Users spend on web pages of the Website, how users navigate through the Website, and how we may tailor the Website to better meet the needs of our Users.

Accordingly, we cannot ensure or warrant the security of any information transmitted to us via the Internet, and we accept no liability for any unintentional disclosure.

These websites and services may have their own privacy policies, which the User will be subject to upon linking to the third party's website. ODFL strongly recommends that each User review the third party's terms and policies.
Protecting the privacy of the very young is especially important. For that reason, the Website is for Users over the age of 18.
