Synapse controls who can access your data in two ways. Sharing settings, or permissions, determine who can access content and at what level. Conditions for Use define how users with access may use the data. All content in Synapse has sharing settings but not all content has Conditions for Use. This article covers sharing settings, see the Conditions for Use article for information about those settings.
