We strictly adhere to all established industry guidelines, and are continuously monitoring and enhancing how we manage the use and security of your personal information to uphold your rights. Desktop XP's Privacy Policy was developed as an extension of our commitment to combine the highest quality of service with the highest level of integrity in dealing with our users. This statement will be continually assessed against new technologies and business practices.
