Your Privacy at a Glance

We share your personal information with YNBC divisions, as well as companies we have selected to provide official YNBC member services or support YNBC operations, located within and outside of the Asia-Pacific region. Our contracts with these companies require them to maintain an adequate level of protection of the personal data, and to keep the information confidential and secure, and allow them to use the information only under YNBC’s instructions and in order to offer the contracted services to YNBC and YNBC members. We may release personal information on the rare occasions when we are required to do so by law, or when necessary or appropriate to comply with legal process or to protect or defend YNBC and its members in compliance with applicable law. We do not sell or rent personal information to telemarketers, mailing list brokers or any other companies except as specified explicitly in this Privacy Policy.

YNBC is required by law to keep some types of information for certain periods of time (e.g. Federal Internal Revenue Service (IRS) requires a period of seven (7) years after a customer terminates their relationship.). If your personal information is no longer necessary with respect to purposes for which it is processed and YNBC has no legal obligation to retain that personal information, we will anonymize the data by following YNBC’s data destruction process.
