Policy Regarding Minors
We recognize the need to provide additional privacy protections when children visit this Site.

We do not knowingly solicit or collect personal information from children.
While we have no way of distinguishing the age of individuals who access our Site, we never knowingly ask a child under 18 to divulge personal information without first obtaining parental or guardian consent. If we learn that personal information from users less than 18 years of age has been collected, we will deactivate the account and take reasonable measures to promptly delete such data from our records. If you think that your child has provided us with personally identifying information the parent or guardian should contact us at sensei@senseiondemand.com to remove the information. Please include “Child Privacy” in the subject line of your email.
