We will not verify the validity of those data: it will be under your responsibility to provide them in the most accurate way possible, to enable us to deliver the most appropriate content to you.

We collect information about how you use our Service: for how long you watch content, your rating of the content you got exposed, the content you interacted with.

From time to time, you might be displayed with dedicated surveys/polls about various topics, such as services you like the most, your level of satisfaction about the call center support of the Operator, and others. We process those data to elaborate marketing/caring statistics, and to enrich your Account with relevant information to improve your experience in Service.
