What is new?
This Privacy Policy replaces the previous ones dated December 2019. We rewrote our
privacy removing as much legal jargon as we could, turning this into a human readable
document. This way we both understand what our privacy policy means without having to go
and ask our lawyers. Hope you like it. We remain fully GDPR compliant.

Cookies and Similar Technologies
We try to make all of our services simple, useful and reliable. We use various

and this may include using cookies or similar technologies to identify your browser or
device. When you use our website and services, small traces of information about you
visiting us are stored on your device. This information is stored into a small file
called a “Cookie”.
A Cookie does not contain a lot of information but the information it contains is used
during your visit and the next time you visit us and when you use any of our software
services. It allows us to recognise you and keep track of important settings you have
made in the past. For example it remembers that it’s you who is visiting so we can
remember your password and to not show information you indicated was not of

We use our own Cookies that we manage and are only used by us to transfer information

Copy of the information we hold
You have the right to request an electronic copy of all the personal information that we
hold about you. You can also request to receive a printed copy but this is subject to
the payment of a small fee because we have printing and postage expenses.
To request your copy you have to:

Deleting your membership and information
If you are no longer interested in using TVMucho services, you can ask to have your
membership account deleted. You can even request deletion of the entire history of
information that TVMucho holds on you.
When you request us to delete your data, we follow a deletion policy to make sure that
your data is safely and completely removed from our system. We secure the data we hold
and therefore there might be delays in the removal of your information from our system
and the back-ups we hold.
Some information needs to be retained by us for a certain period of time for legitimate
business requirements such as for financial record-keeping purposes, or where we have to
comply with legal or regulatory requirements and to provide security, fraud & abuse
prevention. For example, when TVMucho processes a payment for you, or when you make a
payment to TVMucho, we’ll retain this data for longer periods of time as required for
tax or accounting purposes.
We use technologies and tools to develop and deliver our service. Some of these may have
automated secure backups that do not provide us with the option to delete individual
data from encrypted backups. However, in the rare event we need to restore a backup we
will make sure your data will instantly be deleted as part of restoring the backup if
you have requested so.
How Secure is My Information?
We will use reasonable technical and organisational measures to safeguard personal data.
For example the access to your membership account is controlled by a password and
username that are unique to you. We store your personal data on secure servers; we do
not store payment details and where these payment details are transmitted to our
partners for payment processing they are sent in an encrypted form.
Transfers of data
Data protection laws vary among countries, with some providing more protection than
others. Regardless of where your information is processed, we apply the same protections
described in this policy.
We are headquartered in Spain. By submitting your data and using the TVMucho website and
services you agree with this Privacy Policy and our Terms of Service.
When you sign up to receive any of our services we will not transfer your personal data
to countries outside the European Union for storage or processing, unless it is a
recognised ‘safe harbour’ or we have in place suitable and adequate contractual terms to
protect and safeguard your data in such other territory.
