Privacy Policy

Last updated: August 5, 2026 · Effective: August 5, 2026

This policy explains what personal information VentureVoice Media collects, why we collect it, who we share it with, and what choices you have. It applies to venturevoicemedia.com and the services we provide through it.

1. Who we are

VentureVoice Media (“VentureVoice,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) is a public relations and media company based in Los Angeles, California. We distribute press releases and provide related communications services to businesses.

We are the business responsible for the personal information described in this policy.

Information collected automatically

  • Device and connection data — IP address, browser type, operating system, and referring page.
  • Usage data — pages viewed, links clicked, and time spent on the site.
  • Cookies and similar technologies — see Cookies and tracking below.

Information from other sources

We may receive information from publicly available sources, business partners, and media databases when researching placement opportunities for your announcement.

We do not knowingly collect sensitive personal information (such as government ID numbers, health data, or precise geolocation), and we ask that you do not send it to us.

3. How we use information

  • To review, prepare, format, and distribute press releases you submit.
  • To deliver coverage links and reports back to you after publication.
  • To respond to enquiries and provide customer support.
  • To process payments and maintain business records.
  • To send service communications about work in progress.
  • To send marketing emails, where you have signed up. You can unsubscribe at any time using the link in any such email.
  • To operate, secure, and improve our website and services.
  • To comply with legal obligations and enforce our agreements.

We do not sell your personal information, and we do not share it for cross-context behavioural advertising as those terms are defined under California law.

4. Press release content

Press releases are published material. Anything you submit for distribution — including names, quotes, contact details, company information, and images — is intended for public release and will be distributed to media outlets, wire services, and search engines.

Once a release is distributed, we cannot recall or delete it from third-party publishers, news aggregators, or search engine indexes. Please do not include personal information in a submission that you do not want to be permanently public.

You are responsible for confirming that you have the rights and consents needed for any content and images you submit, including consent from any individual named or quoted.

5. How we share information

We share personal information only as described here. We do not sell it.

6. Cookies and tracking

We use cookies and similar technologies to run the site, remember your preferences, and understand how the site is used.

  • Strictly necessary — required for the site and forms to function.
  • Analytics — help us understand which pages are useful and how the site performs.
  • Functional — set by embedded services such as our forms provider.

Most browsers let you block or delete cookies through their settings. Blocking strictly necessary cookies may prevent parts of the site from working.

Our web pages load fonts from Google Fonts, which means your IP address is shared with Google in order to serve those files.

7. Do Not Track

Some browsers offer a “Do Not Track” signal. There is no consistent industry standard for how these signals should be honoured, and we do not currently respond to them.

8. Your California rights

If you are a California resident, you may have the following rights under the California Consumer Privacy Act, as amended by the California Privacy Rights Act:

  • Right to know — the categories and specific pieces of personal information we have collected about you, the sources, our purposes, and who we disclosed it to.
  • Right to delete — request deletion of personal information we collected from you, subject to legal exceptions.
  • Right to correct — ask us to correct inaccurate personal information.
  • Right to opt out — of the sale or sharing of personal information. We do not sell or share personal information.
  • Right to limit — the use of sensitive personal information. We do not collect sensitive personal information for purposes requiring this option.
  • Right to non-discrimination — we will not deny you service, charge you a different price, or provide a lesser quality of service because you exercised these rights.

How to make a request

Email press@venturevoicemedia.com with the subject line “Privacy Request.” We will verify your identity before acting, usually by confirming details you have already given us. We aim to respond within 45 days, and will tell you if we need more time.

An authorised agent may submit a request on your behalf with written permission, which we may ask to verify.

Shine the Light

California Civil Code §1798.83 permits California residents to request information about personal information disclosed to third parties for their direct marketing purposes. We do not disclose personal information for that purpose.

9. Other US state rights

Residents of other states with comprehensive privacy laws may have similar rights to access, correct, delete, or obtain a copy of their personal information, and to appeal a decision we make about a request. Contact us using the details below and we will tell you what applies.

10. How long we keep information

We keep personal information for as long as needed for the purpose it was collected, and afterwards only as long as required for legal, accounting, or reporting obligations. In general, we keep client and submission records for the duration of our working relationship and for a reasonable period afterwards to meet those obligations.

Published press releases remain public indefinitely and are outside our control once distributed.

11. Security

We use reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards to protect personal information. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, however, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

If you believe your interaction with us is no longer secure, contact us immediately.

12. Children's privacy

Our services are intended for businesses and are not directed at children. We do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 16. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, contact us and we will delete it.

13. Changes to this policy

We may update this policy from time to time. When we do, we will revise the “Last updated” date at the top of this page. If the changes are significant, we will provide a more prominent notice.

We review this policy at least once a year.
