Privacy Policy

Last updated: November 2026

This website (“we”, “us”, “our”) is an independent visitor guide to the sumo show at the Shinjuku Sumo Club, and it earns affiliate commission. This page explains how we handle your personal data.

Some links on this site are affiliate links: the show times, prices and booking calendar come from GetYourGuide. If you book through one of them we may earn a commission, and the price you pay is the same.

Important: Data Processing

Booking details (your name, payment and contact details) go to GetYourGuide, not to this website. When you book, you give that information directly to GetYourGuide under its privacy policy.

Please review: GetYourGuide Privacy Policy

You can disable cookies in your browser settings. This may affect the booking calendar.
