Privacy Policy
Last updated: March 2026
Overview
VC Beast (“we,” “us,” or “our”) operates vcbeast.com. This policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and your rights regarding that information. We collect only what is necessary to operate the publication and do not sell your data.
Information we collect
Email address. When you subscribe to The VC Beast Brief newsletter, we collect your email address. This is used solely to send you the newsletter and related updates. You can unsubscribe at any time via the link in any email.
Usage data. Like most websites, we collect anonymized data about how visitors use the site — pages visited, time on site, referring URLs, and general location (country/city level). This data is aggregated and not linked to individuals.
Contact information. If you email us directly (tips, press, advertising inquiries), we retain your email and the contents of that communication to respond to you. We do not add you to any mailing list without your consent.
How we use your information
- To send the newsletter you subscribed to

We do not sell, rent, or share your personal information with third parties for their marketing purposes.
Cookies
We use cookies for basic site functionality and analytics. No advertising cookies or cross-site tracking cookies are used. You can disable cookies in your browser settings, though some site features may not work as expected.
Third-party services
We use a small number of third-party services to operate the site, including our newsletter platform and hosting provider. These services have their own privacy policies. We choose providers that meet reasonable data protection standards and do not authorize them to use your data for their own purposes.
