Effective date: November 11, 2026
This Privacy Policy describes how Spruce & Bow collects and uses information when you use this website or submit a rental application.
Who we are
Spruce & Bow operates this website to accept violin rental applications from families across the United States. For privacy questions, contact Spruce & Bow at info@sprucebow.com.
Information we collect
When you submit a rental application, we collect:
- Adult contact information: name, email, and (if you provide it) phone
- The student’s violin size
- Location: U.S. state, ZIP code, and (if you provide it) city or town
If you choose to provide them, we may also collect: an optional teacher name, a brief description of the current instrument, the student’s playing level or years playing (not the child’s name or age), when you may need the instrument, and a message.
We do not collect children’s identifying information. Please do not submit a child’s name, age, birth date, or other identifying details about a child. The application form does not ask for a child’s name or age.
We may also receive limited technical information needed to operate and secure the site from our hosting and processing providers.
How we use information
We use this information to review rental applications; contact you about your application; send a written contract if we can offer a suitable instrument; confirm availability, delivery, and agreement terms for your state; operate, maintain, and secure this website; and respond to privacy or support requests. Applying is free and does not commit you to rent. Submitting an application is not a payment or a reservation.
Sharing
We do not sell your information. We may share information with service providers who host this website and process submissions on our behalf. We may also disclose information if required by law.
Retention
We keep application information for up to 24 months after our last contact with you, unless you ask us to delete it sooner or a longer period is required by law. If you rent from us, records related to your rental agreement are kept as long as needed for the agreement and as required by law.
Your choices
To ask about access, correction, or deletion of your application information, contact Spruce & Bow at info@sprucebow.com. We may need to verify that you control the contact email or phone before changing a record.
Children
This site is intended for adults who are 18 or older and are applying for a household. We do not knowingly collect identifying information from children.
Changes
We may update this policy. The effective date will appear at the top of this page.
