Additional Privacy Considerations
Children’s Privacy
AMBIA Ventures does not knowingly collect personal information from children under the age of 13. Our website, services, and content are intended for a general audience and are not directed at children. If we become aware that we have inadvertently received personal data from a child under 13 without verified parental consent, we will delete that information from our records promptly.
Parents or guardians who believe their child may have submitted personal information to us are encouraged to contact us at privacy@ambiaventures.com.
User-Generated Content and Public Interactions
Some features of the AMBIA Ventures website or associated platforms may allow you to share content publicly, such as written testimonies, comments, feedback, or other contributions. Please be aware that any information you voluntarily submit for publication may become publicly accessible and may be collected or used by others beyond our control.
By submitting user-generated content, you grant AMBIA Ventures a non-exclusive, royalty-free license to use, display, reproduce, and distribute that content in connection with our mission and platforms, subject to our Terms of Use. While we may review submissions, we are not obligated to monitor or remove content unless required by law.
You should avoid sharing sensitive personal data in public-facing areas. If you would like content you’ve submitted to be removed or anonymized, please contact us at privacy@ambiaventures.com, and we will make reasonable efforts to accommodate your request.
Data Storage and International Transfers
AMBIA Ventures is based in the United States, and the personal data we collect is stored and processed on servers located in the U.S. and potentially in other jurisdictions through third-party service providers. This means your data may be transferred to and maintained on servers located outside your state, province, country, or other governmental jurisdiction where data protection laws may differ.
We take appropriate steps to ensure that your personal information is treated securely and in accordance with this Privacy Policy and applicable laws, including the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) for users in the European Economic Area (EEA).
Our service providers may include, but are not limited to, web hosting platforms, cloud storage providers, content delivery networks (CDNs), and customer relationship management (CRM) tools.
By using our website, you consent to the transfer of your information to the United States and other jurisdictions as outlined above.
Affiliate Links and Third-Party Monetization
AMBIA Ventures may include links to third-party products, services, or platforms that we believe align with our mission and values. Some of these links may be affiliate links, meaning we may earn a small commission if you click through and make a purchase — at no additional cost to you.
These affiliate relationships do not influence our content or recommendations. We only promote products and services that we believe will provide value to our community.
Third-party websites linked from our platform have their own privacy practices and terms of use. We encourage you to review their policies before engaging with them, as we are not responsible for how third parties collect or use your information.
Email Communications and Preferences
If you sign up to receive newsletters, updates, or promotional content from AMBIA Ventures, we may use your personal information to send you emails related to our ministry activities, resources, or services we believe may interest you.
You may opt out of receiving marketing emails at any time by clicking the “Unsubscribe” link included in our emails or by contacting us directly at privacy@ambiaventures.com.
Please note that even if you opt out of promotional emails, we may still contact you with important administrative messages, such as account-related notifications, confirmations, or legal updates.
We do not sell or share your email address with third parties for their own marketing purposes.
Do Not Track Disclosures
Some browsers offer a “Do Not Track” (DNT) feature that signals to websites you visit that you do not want your online activity tracked. At this time, AMBIA Ventures does not respond to DNT browser signals or other similar mechanisms, as there is currently no industry standard for responding to such signals.
We continue to review developments in privacy technology and standards and may update our practices as they evolve.
Policy Updates
This Privacy Statement may be updated periodically. Changes will be effective when posted on this page. For significant updates, we may notify you via email or a website banner. Continued use of our website indicates your acceptance of the updated terms.
