If YGM is not able to provide access to some aspect of a customer’s
personal information, it will provide reasons for denying access such
as; that by doing so would likely reveal personal information about a
third party, or that it is confidential commercial information or
attorney–client privileged communications, or that the information
relates to a breach of an agreement or a contravention of law, or that
its disclosure could reasonably be expected to threaten the life or
security of another individual.

Officer as described above. YGM will promptly correct such personal
information.
