Venture.com serves thousands of domain names and users all over the globe. Despite the company’s best efforts, it is impossible for the company to monitor and verify every single domain name; and as such, the company disavows any obligation to do so. For this reason, Venture.com urges you to report any domain name you believe has been listed in violation of our Listed Domain Names Policy. Reports should be sent via Venture.com’s Contact page. Please include the domain name, the date, time and location where you detected the domain.
