Little Acorns may advertise its services through Facebook and Instagram.
If you submit an Instant Form or other lead form through Facebook or Instagram, we may receive the information you choose to provide, such as your name, phone number, email address, child's age or age range, desired start date, and child care preferences.

6. Children's Privacy
Our website and online inquiry forms are intended for use by parents, legal guardians, and other adults seeking information about child care services.
We do not knowingly request that children submit their own personal information through our website or advertising forms.
Parents or legal guardians may provide limited information about a child, such as the child's age or age range and child care needs, when requesting information about our services.
If you believe that a child has submitted personal information directly to us without appropriate parental involvement, please contact us so that we can review and, when appropriate, delete the information.
7. Cookies and Online Technologies
Our website may use cookies and similar technologies to operate correctly, remember preferences, understand website usage, maintain security, and support website functionality.
Some third-party services integrated with our website may also use cookies or similar technologies according to their own privacy practices.
You may be able to manage cookies through your browser settings and, where available, through cookie controls presented on our website.
8. Data Retention and Security
9. Your Privacy Choices
We retain personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this Privacy Policy, including responding to inquiries, maintaining business records, and meeting applicable legal obligations.
We take reasonable measures intended to protect personal information from unauthorized access, loss, misuse, or disclosure. However, no internet transmission or electronic storage system can be guaranteed to be completely secure.
You may contact us to request that we review, correct, or delete personal information you have provided to us, subject to applicable legal requirements and legitimate recordkeeping needs.
You may also ask us to stop contacting you for marketing purposes.
