About the flag
According to the Peruvian Ministry of External Relations (at www.rree.gob.pe/simbolos/bandera.htm), this is the bandera nacional para izar (national flag for hoisting). Plain red-white-red triband; for use on private buildings, houses, vessels, factories, etc., on patriotic holidays and as directed by law or special decree. (See also the other three national flags: pabellón nacional para izar, bandera de guerra and estandarte.)

According to [alv86] the flag without arms is used as civil flag and ensign, whereas the flag with arms is used as state and war flag/ensign. Both the flag and the arms have been adopted by law on 25/2/1825.
