enjoy our web site. In communicating
directly with minors over the Internet, we
recognize the unique issues raised regarding
the protection of your kid’s privacy. The
Children’s Advertising Review Unit (CARU), a
section of The Better Business Bureau, has
issued guidelines for web sites gathering
information from minors. the YMCA intends to
comply with the CARU guidelines in order to
protect your kids and their privacy. We
recommend, however, that you caution your
children on the importance of scrutinizing
sources and checking with you before
revealing any personal information.

questions with us. We promise to read all
the mail you send to us, but we may not be
able to respond to all of it. However,
please note that we assume no responsibility
for reviewing unsolicited ideas for our
business (like product or advertising ideas)

that we have no obligation to treat your
idea submissions confidentially and that we
can use them without paying you for them.

by YMCA of the Greater Tri-Cities
exclusively and may be used by the YMCA for
any purpose, now or in the future.
Links
YMCA of the Greater Tri-Cities site may
contain “links” to other sites, not just the
YMCA Member Store. We make every effort to
only link to sites that share our high
standards of decency, fairness, and
integrity. We try our best to ensure that
these links are safe for kids and
appropriate for our users in general.
However, since we cannot guarantee the
content of every site to which we are
linked, kids should always check with an
adult before linking to any new sites.
