Protecting your privacy and your personal data is an important aspect of the way we create, organize and implement our activities on-line and off-line. Please read the following policy to understand how your personal information will be treated as you make full use of the Synthmuseum.com website. This policy may change from time to time so please check back periodically.</font></font></p> <p><font face="arial, helvetica, verdana"><b>Collection of Personal Data</b><br /> <font size="-1">We believe that there should be limits to the collection of personal data and any such data should be obtained by lawful and fair means and, where appropriate, with the knowledge or consent of the data subject.

This information is used solely to assist you in navigating the system by automatically filling in certain forms (such as the ad posting form) with your information so that you don't have to continually re-enter it.
