SECRET NINJA SCHOOL PRIVACY POLICY
Secret Ninja School is committed to protecting the privacy of your personal information. We manage your personal information in an open and transparent way.

Secret Ninja School will not use or disclose your personal information for purposes unrelated to the services we provide, unless we first obtain your consent.
Where we can, we will allow you to deal with us anonymously or by using a pseudonym. However, in some circumstances, this may not be possible, and Secret Ninja School may need to collect personal information from you to provide you with a delivery or other service. In some cases, if you do not provide the required personal information we will not be able to provide you with a service.

For example, these types of information could include your name, contact details, age and other information.
