PRIVACY POLICY
MyYAB.com knows that you care how information
about you is used and shared, and we appreciate
your trust that we will do so carefully and
sensibly. This notice describes our privacy
policy. By visiting MyYAB.com, you are accepting
the practices described in this Privacy Notice.
The information we learn from customers helps us
personalize and continually improve your
shopping experience at MyYAB.com. Here are the
types of information we gather:
Information You Give
Us: We receive and store any
information you enter on our Web site or give us
in any other way. You can choose not to provide
certain information, but then you might not be
able to take advantage of many of our features.
We use the information that you provide for such
purposes as responding to your requests,
customizing future shopping for you, improving
our stores, and communicating with you.
Automatic Information:
We receive and store certain types of
information whenever you interact with us. For
example, like many Web sites, we use "cookies,"
and we obtain certain types of information when
your Web browser accesses MyYAB.com.
E-mail Communications:
To help us make e-mails more useful and
interesting, we often receive a confirmation
when you open e-mail from MyYAB.com if your
computer supports such capabilities. We also
compare our customer list to lists received from
other companies, in an effort to avoid sending
unnecessary messages to our customers. If you do
not want to receive e-mail or other mail from
us, please adjust your Customer Communication
Preferences.
Information from Other
Sources: We might receive information
about you from other sources and add it to our
account information. Click here to see examples
of the information we receive.
What About Cookies?
Cookies are alphanumeric identifiers that we
transfer to your computer's hard drive through
your Web browser to enable our systems to
recognize your browser and to provide features
such as 1-Click purchasing, New for You,
personalized DarrenMcNeese Honor System
greetings, and storage of items in your Shopping
Cart between visits. The Help portion of the
toolbar on most browsers will tell you how to
prevent your browser from accepting new cookies,
how to have the browser notify you when you
receive a new cookie, or how to disable cookies
altogether. Additionally, you can disable or
delete similar data used by browser add-ons,
such as Flash cookies, by changing the add-on's
settings or visiting the Website of its
manufacturer. However, because cookies allow you
to take advantage of some of MyYAB.com's
essential features, we recommend that you leave
them turned on. For instance, if you block or
otherwise reject our cookies, you will not be
able to add items to your Shopping Cart, proceed
to Checkout, or use any MyYAB.com products and
services that require you to Sign in.
Does MyYAB.com Share
the Information It Receives?
Information about our customers is an important
part of our business, and we are not in the
business of selling it to others. We share
customer information only as described below and
with subsidiaries MyYAB.com, Inc. controls that
either are subject to this Privacy Notice or
follow practices at least as protective as those
described in this Privacy Notice.
Affiliated Businesses
We Do Not Control: We work closely
with our affiliated businesses. In some cases,
such as Marketplace and Auctions sellers, these
businesses operate stores at MyYAB.com or sell
offerings to you at MyYAB.com. In other cases,
we operate stores, provide services, or sell
product lines jointly with these businesses.
Click here for some examples of co-branded and
joint offerings. You can tell when a third party
is involved in your transactions, and we share
customer information related to those
transactions with that third party.
Third-Party Service
Providers: We employ other companies
and individuals to perform functions on our
behalf. Examples include fulfilling orders,
delivering packages, sending postal mail and
e-mail, removing repetitive information from
customer lists, analyzing data, providing
marketing assistance, providing search results
and links (including paid listings and links),
processing credit card payments, and providing
customer service. They have access to personal
information needed to perform their functions,
but may not use it for other purposes.
Promotional Offers:
Sometimes we send offers to selected
groups of MyYAB.com customers on behalf of other
businesses. When we do this, we do not give that
business your name and address. If you do not
want to receive such offers, please adjust your
Customer Communication Preferences.
Business Transfers:
As we continue to develop our business, we might
sell or buy stores, subsidiaries, or business
units. In such transactions, customer
information generally is one of the transferred
business assets but remains subject to the
promises made in any pre-existing Privacy Notice
(unless, of course, the customer consents
otherwise). Also, in the unlikely event that
MyYAB.com, Inc., or substantially all of its
assets are acquired, customer information will
of course be one of the transferred assets.
Protection of MyYAB.com
and Others: We release account and
other personal information when we believe
release is appropriate to comply with the law;
enforce or apply our Conditions of Use and other
agreements; or protect the rights, property, or
safety of MyYAB.com, our users, or others. This
includes exchanging information with other
companies and organizations for fraud protection
and credit risk reduction. Obviously, however,
this does not include selling, renting, sharing,
or otherwise disclosing personally identifiable
information from customers for commercial
purposes in violation of the commitments set
forth in this Privacy Notice.
With Your Consent:
Other than as set out above, you will
receive notice when information about you might
go to third parties, and you will have an
opportunity to choose not to share the
information.
How Secure Is Information About Me?
We work to protect the security of your
information during transmission by using Secure
Sockets Layer (SSL) software, which encrypts
information you input. We reveal only the last
five digits of your credit card numbers when
confirming an order. Of course, we transmit the
entire credit card number to the appropriate
credit card company during order processing. It
is important for you to protect against
unauthorized access to your password and to your
computer. Be sure to sign off when finished
using a shared computer. Click here for more
information on how to sign off.

Advertisers and Links to Other Websites?

links to other websites. We do not provide any
personally identifiable customer information to
these advertisers or third-party websites. Click

how to contact these companies to learn more or

These third-party websites and advertisers, or
Internet advertising companies working on their

web beacons (also known as action tags or
single-pixel gifs), and other technologies to
measure the effectiveness of their ads and to
personalize advertising content. We do not have
access to or control over cookies or other
features that they may use, and the information
practices of these advertisers and third-party
websites are not covered by this Privacy Notice.
Please contact them directly for more
information about their privacy practices. In

advertising companies (also called "ad networks"
or "network advertisers"), including information
about how to opt-out of their information
collection.

limited purpose of viewing and, in certain
cases, updating that information.

provide information, even though it might be
needed to make a purchase or to take advantage
of such MyYAB.com features as your Profile, Wish
Lists, Customer Reviews, and DarrenMcNeese
Prime. You can add or update certain information
on pages such as those listed in the "Which
Information Can I Access?" section above. When
you update information, we usually keep a copy
of the prior version for our records.If you do
not want to receive e-mail or other mail from
us, please adjust your Customer Communication
Preferences. (If you do not want to receive
Conditions of Use and other legal notices from
us, such as this Privacy Notice, those notices
will still govern your use of MyYAB.com, and it
is your responsibility to review them for
changes.)

sell products for purchase by children. We sell

also. We may e-mail periodic reminders of our

Unless stated otherwise, our current Privacy
Notice applies to all information that we have
about you and your account. We stand behind the
promises we make, however, and will never
materially change our policies and practices to
make them less protective of customer
information collected in the past without the
consent of affected customers.
