Use of Cookies

The YOVA website use “cookies” to help personalize your online experience. A cookie is a text file that is placed on your hard disk by a webpage server. Cookies cannot be used to run programs or deliver viruses to your computer. Cookies are uniquely assigned to you, and can only be read by a web server in the domain that issued the cookie to you.

One of the primary purposes of cookies is to provide a convenient feature to save you time. The purpose of a cookie is to tell the Web server that you have returned to a specific page. For example, if you personalize the YOVA pages, or register with the YOVA website or services, a cookie helps the YOVA website to recall your specific information on subsequent visits. This simplifies the process of recording your personal information, such as home addresses, billing addresses, and so on. When you return to the same YOVA website, the information you previously provided can be retrieved, so you can easily use the YOVA website features that you customized.

You have the ability to accept or decline cookies. Most Web browsers automatically accept cookies, but you can usually modify your browser settings to decline cookies if you prefer. If you choose to decline cookies, you may not be able to fully experience the interactive features of The YOVA website services or websites you visit.

Security of your Personal Information

YOVA secures your personal information from unauthorized access, use or disclosure. YOVA secures the personally identifiable information you provide on computer servers in a controlled, secure environment, protected from unauthorized access, use or disclosure. When personal information (such as a credit card number) is transmitted to other websites, it is protected through the use of encryption, such as the Secure Socket Layer (SSL) protocol.

YOVA and its affiliates shall not be held liable for any unauthorized breach or any direct public disclosure of personally identifiable information.

Changes to this Statement

YOVA will occasionally update this Statement of Privacy to reflect organization and visitor feedback. YOVA encourages you to periodically review this Statement to be informed of how YOVA is protecting your information.
