USE OF COOKIES
The You Pave the Way Web site use "cookies" to help you personalize your
online experience. A cookie is a text file that is placed on your hard disk by a
Web page 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 convenience 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 You Pave the Way
pages, or register with You Pave the Way site or services, a cookie helps You
Pave the Way to recall your specific information on subsequent visits. This
simplifies the process of recording your personal information, such as billing
addresses, shipping addresses, and so on. When you return to the same You Pave
the Way Web site, the information you previously provided can be retrieved, so
you can easily use the You Pave the Way 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 setting 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 You Pave the Way
services or Web sites you visit.
SECURITY OF YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION
You Pave the Way secures your personal information from unauthorized access,
use or disclosure. You Pave the Way 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

protected through the use of encryption, such as the Secure Socket Layer (SSL)
protocol.
