Noting GitLab Team Members names are Yellow Data Classification

Why is this change being made?

For transparency as GitLab team member email addresses are considered yellow and team member names will also be considered yellow. Given our value of transparency and because GitLab is public by default, most Team Member names are available publicly as we are encouraged to maintain public GitLab profiles and to list ourselves on the Team Page.

Intended result (links should render properly): Screenshot_2023-01-25_at_8.01.12_AM

Once this is merged, the data classification index will be updated to reflect the change.
