YooBank does not create, edit or delete student profiles, except in cases where objectionable or disallowed content has been published. YooBank does not validate the claims of any student, nor does YooBank validate the legitimacy of any donor. YooBank is not responsible for the accuracy of any content published by a student, nor any claims made by a student or donor. Students and donors agree to assume all liability for any transactions resulting from the use of the YooBank.com website. YooBank is not party to any transaction between a student and a prospective or actual donor. By using the website, you agree that YooBank shall not be held liable for any direct or consequential loss or damage from using the website. You agree that your sole and exclusive remedy against YooBank LLC is to discontinue using the website. Each student has access to his/her profile administration menu 24 hours per day, except in the case of scheduled or unscheduled outages. Each student is responsible for creating his/her listing, maintaining the accuracy and currency of the listing and deleting the listing when it is no longer wanted. YooBank does not warrant that the website is error free.

Privacy and Copyright

YooBank does not and will not share, sell or divulge to any third party any personal information, such as names, email addresses, addresses, phone numnbers or passwords.

Acceptable Content

YooBank reserves the right to delete or deactivate any profile at its sole discretion with or without notification should the profile be deemed inappropriate.

Any references to websites, email addresses or phone numbers other than within the designated data entry fields are subject to removal without notice. Any attempt to bypass this policy by entering a spelled-out address (e.g. mywebsite at somedomain dot com) shall be considered an overt policy violation and shall result in the deletion of the profile without notice. Profiles may not contain indirect references to websites or email addresses, such as "search Google for XYZ", for example.

Student Inquiries

Inquiries sent to a student may be filtered and/or read by the YooBank staff before or after delivery to the profile owner. Inquiries containing embedded email addresses and website addresses in the message section are electronically filtered for removal as a spam prevention measure. Email transmitted via the student contact form is monitored and retained by YooBank. Use of the student contact form is solely for the purpose of contacting a student with regard to making a donation. All inquiries of a commercial nature or offering goods or services are prohibited.

While YooBank endeavors to eliminate spam/fraudulent inquiries to listing students, it is not possible to guarantee that no such inquiries will be received by a student. Any student who receives a suspect inquiry is encouraged to notify YooBank via the contact us form. YooBank shall be held blameless and harmless for any cases of fraud resulting from transactions conducted through the YooBank website, whether as student or donor.
