How We Protect Information
We are committed to protecting the information we receive from our Customers and their Data Sources. We follow reasonable technical and management practices to help protect the confidentiality, security and integrity of data stored on our system on the Site and on the Mobile Apps, including from loss, misuse, and unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration and destruction. While no computer system is completely secure, we believe the measures we have implemented reduce the likelihood of security problems to a level appropriate to the type of data involved.
In addition, only those employees and third parties who need access to personal information in order to perform their duties are allowed such access.
Although we do our best to protect the personal information of our Customers and Data Sources, we cannot guarantee the security of personal information transmitted to the Site or Mobile Apps. ANY TRANSMISSION OF PERSONAL INFORMATION IS AT THE CUSTOMER’S OR THE DATA SOURCE’S OWN RISK. WE ARE NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR THE CIRCUMVENTION OF ANY PRIVACY SETTINGS OR SECURITY MEASURES CONTAINED ON THE SITE OR MOBILE APPS.
The safety and security of personal information also depends on the Customers and Data Sources. Where we have given the Customer or Data Sources (or where they have chosen) a password for access to certain parts of the Site or Mobile Apps, the aforementioned Customer or Data Source is responsible for keeping this password confidential. Customer and Data Sources must not share passwords with anyone. Customer and Data Sources must also take all reasonable steps to ensure the protection of their personal information, including, but not limited to, the personally identifiable information, and must be careful about giving out information in public areas of the Site or Mobile Apps or elsewhere.
Accessing and Updating Personal Information and Preferences of Customers
Authorized Users of our Customers may access and update, correct or delete registration and other personal information by logging into the Site or Mobile Apps and modifying their user profile, or by sending us an email at privacy@yello.co. Customers may also close their account at any time by contacting us at privacy@yello.co. We will take commercially reasonable steps to implement our Customers’ requests promptly, but it may take some time to process.
While we make efforts to accommodate requests to restrict our use of personal information, we reserve the right to delete all or any portion of a Customer or Data Source’s information if we are not able to reasonably accommodate a requested restriction. Please note that in some instances we may not be able to delete the personal information or our Customers or their Data Sources except by closing such Customer’s user account. We will notify our Customers if we are not able to accommodate their requests or if we have elected to close a Customer account as a result of a failure to accommodate such request.
We may retain copies of a Customer’s personal information even after it has closed its account in order to comply with legal obligations, pursuant to our data retention practices and for a reasonable period following such closure to be able to address any potential disputes.
Children’s Privacy and Parental Controls
We do not solicit any personal information from children. IF A CUSTOMER OR DATA SOURCE IS NOT 16 OR OLDER, HE OR SHE MUST NOT USE THE SITE OR THE MOBILE APPS.
