Mintel TV App

 

By installing or using the Mintel TV app, you agree to the terms of this Mintel TV Privacy Policy, as outlined below (this “Policy”). If you do not agree to this Policy, please do not install or use the Mintel TV app. This Policy describes the kinds of information that may be collected through the Mintel TV app and what Minerva Networks, Inc. (“Minerva”) and Mulberry Telecommunications might do with that information.

​

Information Collected:

In order to use the Mintel TV app, you must be a subscriber to a television service being delivered by a service provider (a “TV Service Provider”) which has deployed Minerva’s software platform. The Mintel TV app collects the following types of information:

​

(a)     In order to activate the Mintel TV app, you must provide your username and password that identifies you to Mulberry Telecommunications.  No additional personal information is required.

​

(b)     When you use the Mintel TV app, it will be able to identify which services you are entitled to (free or paid) and how you are using the service provided through the app, including what programming you are watching, what programs have been scheduled or have been recorded through a DVR (Digital Video Recorder) service, search usage, and program bookmarks (where you started or stopped watching a particular program). The Mintel TV app also captures information about the type of device on which the app is installed.

​

(c)     The application uses the device IP address to determine if a specific piece of content may be played on that device from the IP address.  The IP address is not stored.  Precise geolocation information is not used.

​

(d)   The application collects free text data to perform searches, add text labels to profiles and user created lists.  This information is stored on servers and retrieved by the application for each user session.

​

How the Information is Used:

None of the information collected through the Mintel TV app is provided to Minerva or otherwise tracked or maintained by Minerva.

All of the information collected through the Mintel TV app is provided to the Mulberry Telecommunications which is providing the television service you are accessing through the Mintel TV app. Mulberry Telecommunications uses the information at least to confirm that you are a current subscriber to their service and may use it for other purposes.

​

Data Security:

To prevent unauthorized access, maintain data accuracy, and ensure the correct use of information, we have put in place appropriate physical, electronic, and managerial procedures to safeguard and secure the information collected through the Mintel TV app. You should contact your TV Service Provider to understand what security procedures they employ with regard to the information provided to them through the Mintel TV app.

​

Do Not Track:

Minerva does not collect or maintain any information collected through the Mintel TV app. Therefore, any “do not track” election that you may make is inapplicable to Minerva. As described above, the Mintel TV app allows Mulberry Telecommunications to collect information about you and your use of the Mintel TV app, including what programming you are watching, what programs have been scheduled, etc.

​

Notice of Changes:

Mulberry Telecommunications may amend this Policy from time to time by posting the updated terms on this page. In addition, if we make any material changes in this Policy, we will include a notice to that effect in the Mintel TV app. Your continued use of the Mintel TV app after the effective date of any change in this Policy constitutes your agreement to such changes.
