Company bio

We started ImagineBC in response to a problem: digital platforms make their money by selling data to advertisers. The dominant paradigm among media companies and society at large is, hey, you agreed to the terms and conditions, so there’s nothing you can do. We’re starting a movement to challenge that. ImagineBC is a new media company. It’s a secure platform for unique content experiences that pay members and creators back. ImagineBC was built from the ground up with your privacy and security in mind. Through utilization of Blockchain Technology, we enable our member’s data and personal information to be stored on the most advanced and secured data-storage system available – preventing anyone but you from accessing your information. Blockchain Technology allows ImagineBC to treat every member as anonymous, while still verifying that every member of the community is who they say they are.
