NTV – New Television Comunicação S/A (MULTIPLIERAPP) is an internet application provider registered with the Electoral Court to provide electoral propaganda boosting services, under the terms of TSE Resolution No. 23,610/2019.
As a result of this institutional partnership, MULTIPLIERAPP adopts permanent measures to collaborate with the integrity of the electoral process, including outside the election period. We reaffirm our commitment to the authenticity of the information provided, the fight against disinformation and the encouragement of the ethical use of our Platform by all CLIENTS.
As part of this commitment, MULTIPLIERAPP maintains a specific channel for reporting content that violates electoral legislation. These complaints will be analyzed and, where appropriate, may result in the suspension of content published by CLIENTS, by court order or under the terms of art. 17, §1º-B of TSE Resolution No. 23.608/2019.
It is important to clarify that MULTIPLIERAPP does not curate the content of the posts made on its platform, and its actions in controlling the illegality of electoral propaganda are restricted to the necessary measures to inhibit illegal practices, according to the information presented in these Terms of Use. In compliance with national legislation, we act with the least possible interference in the democratic debate, always with the aim of ensuring freedom of expression and preventing censorship on your Platform. The police power over electoral propaganda will only be exercised by the Electoral Justice and the civil responsibility for the content lies exclusively with your CLIENT or, in solidarity, with any co-participant of the content disclosed on the Platform.
MULTIPLIERAPP undertakes to forward all complaints involving:
a) dissemination of false or misleading information about the electronic voting system, the electoral process or the Electoral Justice itself;
b) offending the honor or image of candidates, parties, coalitions or party federations;
c) disclosure of facts that are known to be untrue, to the electoral judges assigned to exercise police power, undertaking to collaborate with the Electoral Justice in removing the content;
d) improper use of artificial intelligence and manipulated content (deepfakes) with the potential to affect the fairness of the election.
MULTIPLIERAPP will comply with any and all court orders to remove content posted on its Platform, when violations of electoral legislation or third party rights are identified.

The platform will strictly observe the prohibitions related to electoral propaganda produced or manipulated by artificial intelligence. An explicit warning is mandatory whenever AI is used. The use of chatbots that simulate dialog with candidates or third parties is also prohibited, as is the dissemination of manipulated content with the potential to unbalance the electoral process.
It is expressly forbidden to disseminate, through the Platform, content that is fabricated or manipulated in order to spread facts that are notoriously untrue or out of context, with the potential to damage the balance of the election or the integrity of the electoral process.
In accordance with art. 39 of TSE Resolution 23.610/2019 and art. 15 of the Brazilian Civil Rights Framework for the Internet, and in collaboration with the courts, MULTIPLIERAPP collects and stores access records (IP address) of Brazilian users for an indefinite period, and may provide them by court order together with the associated registration information.
Under the terms of our Privacy Policy, we do not use sensitive data provided by our CLIENTS to create profiles aimed at targeting electoral propaganda without the specific and prominent consent of the holder.
