Well, it's different when you're getting stuff straight from IHQ (paperwork, etc.) since we as mere mortals don't have access to the same resources. Most of the stuff I've noticed coming from IHQ does indeedy use more of a "buff" color rather than yellow. The colors on the website use buff. It's just hard to find that color in real life without it looking off.
For all three colors, I'm sure they use their own standard color codes to keep everything consistent online/in print - whether that's RGB, CYMK, or HSI I have no idea.
Another example, I've never, not once in my life, seen a buff rose in person.
