If you make a purchase, payment and order information may be collected and processed by the applicable commerce and payment providers.

When you visit the Website, certain information may be collected automatically through cookies or similar technologies, including:
- Device, browser, and operating system information;
- Pages viewed and actions taken on the Website;
- Approximate location derived from your IP address;

We may use information we collect to:
- Respond to messages and inquiries;
- Send email updates you have requested;
- Provide, maintain, and improve the Website and its resources;
- Understand how visitors use the Website;
- Process purchases and provide related customer support;

Service Providers and Third Parties
We use service providers that help operate the Website and provide requested services. These may include:
- GoDaddy / Airo App Builder, which hosts and supports the Website;
- Google Analytics, which provides website usage analytics after consent;
- Kit, which provides the email subscription form and email-list services;
- GoDaddy Commerce and GoDaddy Payments, which support shop, cart, checkout, payment, and order-related functions; and

- These providers may process information on our behalf or under their own privacy policies. We encourage you to review their privacy policies for more information about their practices.

Cookies, Analytics, and Online Tracking
Cookies are small files stored on your device that help websites function and remember preferences. The Website may use essential cookies needed for site functionality and, with your consent, analytics cookies.
You can manage analytics choices through the Website’s cookie consent controls. You may also adjust your browser settings to block or delete cookies. Please note that blocking certain cookies may affect how some parts of the Website function.
Google Analytics may collect information about your use of the Website after you consent to analytics cookies. We use this information in aggregate to understand Website traffic and improve the visitor experience. We do not use Google Analytics to identify you personally.
Do Not Track and Global Privacy Control
Some browsers offer a “Do Not Track” (“DNT”) setting or similar privacy signal. The Website does not currently detect or respond to browser DNT signals because its analytics functionality is controlled through the Website’s cookie consent choices instead.
The Website does not currently detect or respond to Global Privacy Control (“GPC”) signals. Visitors may decline analytics cookies through the Website’s cookie consent controls and may manage cookies through their browser settings.
Google Analytics is not loaded by the Website unless a visitor accepts analytics cookies. Once enabled by consent, Google Analytics may collect information about Website activity as described in Google’s own privacy documentation. The Yellow Folder Collection does not intentionally enable third-party advertising or cross-site behavioral advertising tools through the Website. However, third-party services you choose to use, including linked websites, email services, commerce providers, and payment providers, may have their own tracking practices governed by their own privacy policies.
Your Privacy Choices
- Choose whether to accept analytics cookies;
- Unsubscribe from email communications using the unsubscribe link included in those emails;
- Contact us to request access to, correction of, or deletion of personal information you have provided to us, subject to applicable law and our legitimate recordkeeping needs; and
- Choose not to submit information through the Website’s forms.
California Privacy Notice
California law, including the California Online Privacy Protection Act, requires certain disclosures about online privacy practices. This Privacy Policy describes the categories of information the Website may collect, the purposes for which information may be used, the categories of third parties that may receive information, and the choices available to visitors.
The Yellow Folder Collection does not sell personal information for money. We also do not knowingly share personal information for cross-context behavioral advertising.
Depending on the circumstances, certain California privacy laws may provide California residents with rights regarding personal information. The Yellow Folder Collection may voluntarily honor reasonable requests regarding personal information it maintains, including requests to access, correct, or delete information, subject to applicable law, verification, and legitimate recordkeeping needs.
