Your privacy is very important to us. We do not sell or rent your personal information to third parties for their marketing purposes for any reason whatsoever. Although your e-mail address is displayed in your membership profile, the only intent and purpose of collecting personal information is to provide you with a means to collaborate with other artists, and for other artists to potentially collaborate with you. If you suspect that you are getting junk e-mails as a result of having your e-mail address displayed for other HSMA members, please notify us immediately.
The information gathered about your location and studio equipment is solely for the purpose of other musicians to: 1) Find other similar musicians in their area, 2) Find other musicians who play the same instruments across the country, 3) Find other musicians owning the same equipment so they may ask questions regarding such equipment, and 4) so eventually, as this site becomes a source of original talent, so producers may contact you about your specific abilities for the purpose of music production.
Currently, anyone visiting this website is allowed to freely browse all pages of the site, with the single restriction that only registered members may post messages in the discussion forums. As membership with the HSMA increases, new functionality will be added to allow only registered members to view the HSMA membership. Eventually, search functionality will be added to allow members only to search for keywords in other member's profiles to help them more easily locate other members with similar talents or equipment.
From time to time, the HSMA may e-mail you information regarding news which might be pertinent to you in accordance with your profile, or notices about changes to the HSMA website. As part of our privacy policy, we do not collect phone numbers, and you are free to leave your location information or e-mail address blank if you so desire. However, some functionality of the site, such as posting messages on the discussion forums, will only work if you have provided an e-mail address. You are free to edit your own personal membership information within your HSMA membership profile, or your discussion forums profile, at any time.
