Whether a word should be capitalized when using title case depends on several factors, but the most important factor is the grammatical function (or word class) of that word, i.e., if it’s a noun, verb, preposition, etc. Most dictionaries (for example, Collins) classify your as (possessive) determiner (Merriam-Webster categorizes it as adjective). In title case, the only words that are not capitalized are
- articles,
- conjunctions, and
- (short) prepositions
Here are a few examples:
Stand by Your Man
How I Met Your Mother
Put Your Money Where Your Mouth Is
