Local Focus Media LLC operates localfocusmedia.com, an Atlanta-based venture studio website. This policy explains how information is handled on this website. Linked ventures and student projects have their own privacy policies.
Information you send us
Our contact form collects your name, email address, selected topic, and message. WPForms processes the submission and emails it to our feedback inbox so we can answer questions, consider feedback, investigate issues, and handle privacy requests. Please do not include passwords, payment details, or other sensitive information in your message.
Technical information and site security
Our hosting and security services process technical information needed to deliver and protect the website, such as IP addresses, request times, browser information, requested pages, and security events. We use Hostinger for website hosting and Wordfence for website security. Form and anti-spam tools also process information necessary to validate submissions and prevent abuse.
Optional Google Analytics
We use Google Analytics through Google Site Kit to understand website visits. The Google Analytics script stays unloaded until you accept analytics. If you accept, Google can receive page and interaction events, browser and device information, referring pages, and approximate location information derived from network data, along with cookie identifiers. We use these reports to understand traffic and improve the website.
Rejecting optional analytics does not prevent you from reading the site or sending a contact message. Use Cookie settings to review or withdraw your choice. Withdrawing stops further Google Analytics measurement in this browser and removes the site’s accessible Google Analytics cookies. It does not automatically delete data already received by Google. See Google’s Privacy Policy and how Google uses information from sites that use its services.
Fonts and other service providers
Our pages request font files from Google Fonts. Delivering those files involves technical request information, such as an IP address and browser headers, even when optional analytics is off. Providers supporting hosting, security, email delivery, forms, and analytics process information to perform those services. Their systems may be located outside your state or country and are subject to their own privacy practices.
Cookies and local storage
We save your cookie choice in this browser for up to 180 days. Optional analytics is off until you choose to enable it. See our Cookie Policy for storage names, purposes, typical lifetimes, and controls.
How long information is kept
Contact messages and related correspondence are kept while needed to handle the inquiry and reasonable follow-up, or to maintain records needed for disputes or legal obligations. The appropriate period depends on the nature of the request. Hosting and security logs follow the providers’ configured retention and backup settings. Google Analytics reporting data follows the property’s retention settings and Google’s service policies; cookie lifetimes do not determine the retention of previously collected reporting data.
You can ask us to delete information you provided by using the contact form and selecting Privacy request. We will review the request and explain any information that must be retained.
Data sales and marketing
Local Focus Media does not operate this site for the purpose of selling personal information collected from visitors. Submitting the contact form does not subscribe you to marketing emails. The cookie controls do not grant advertising or personalized-advertising consent.
Your choices and privacy requests
Depending on applicable law, you may have rights to request access, correction, or deletion of personal information and to object to or restrict certain processing. Use the contact form and select Privacy request. We may need to verify a request before providing or changing personal information. You can change optional analytics choices separately through Cookie settings.
Children
This website is intended for a general business audience and is not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly seek personal information from children under 13.
Changes and questions
We update this policy when the website’s practices change. The date above identifies the latest update. Questions can be submitted through our contact form.
