COOKIES: A “cookie” is a small file that we save on your computer’s hard drive that contains non-personal information. Our cookies help to give you faster access to pages you have already visited; they allow you to personalize your pages; and they help you to participate in some activities or events on the site. For instance, if our site included a scavenger or treasure hunt or other game, we may use cookies to keep track of your progress in the hunt or game. If you leave the site and then return, cookies will tell us what things you have already collected or progress made in a game, so that you do not have to start all over again. We also use cookies to tell us how many people visit our site, which of our Web pages they stop at and how long they stay. This information tells us which of our web features are smashing successes and what web features might need improvement! For administrative purposes, we collect IP addresses, which is the automatic number assigned to your computer when you surf the Web. The IP address allows us to count total number of “hits” on our site. However, your IP address and cookie is not associated with any personally identifiable or online contact information like a name and address, so you and your family remain anonymous. We may use cookies in connection with verification that a child is not under the age of 13, as required by the federal government.

Little Kids does not collect information passively through cookies or other tracking mechanisms except in the circumstances described above. Cookies DON’T contain any personal information about a specific user. We don’t use cookies or other non-consensual methods to take personally identifiable or online contact information about you or your family off of your computer. Except for certain activities like a treasure hunt or game, which we talked about above, Little Kids doesn’t use cookies for direct marketing or promotional purposes. Cookies are also not used to collect information specifically about you or your family for sharing with third parties, except to verify age as required by federal law.

We want you and your family to have fun surfing our site and urge you and your family to follow common sense whenever disclosing personal information - on this site or anywhere on the Internet.
