Your privacy matters to us. This Privacy Policy explains in simple, plain language what data BrokenSilenze collects when you visit our website, how we use it, and what choices you have.
Who we are
BrokenSilenze (“we”, “us”, “our”) operates the website located at brokensilence.to. We are a free online platform where users can watch reality TV shows and related entertainment content.
This Privacy Policy applies to all visitors and users of our website. By using BrokenSilenze, you agree to the practices described in this policy.
What information we collect
We collect two types of information: information you give us directly and information collected automatically when you visit our site.
Information collected automatically:
- IP address — your internet connection’s numerical address, used to understand general location and prevent abuse.
- Browser type and version — for example, Chrome, Firefox, or Safari, and which version you are using.
- Device and operating system — whether you are on a phone, tablet, or desktop computer.
- Pages visited and time spent — which shows and episodes you viewed and how long you stayed on each page.
- Referring URL — the website or search engine that sent you to us.
- Cookie data — small files stored on your device that help us remember your preferences.
Information you give us directly (if applicable):
If you contact us by email or through a contact form, we collect your name, email address, and the content of your message.
We do not require you to create an account or provide personal information to watch content on BrokenSilenze.

Cookies and tracking technologies
BrokenSilenze uses cookies and similar technologies to improve your experience on our site. Cookies are small text files saved on your browser when you visit a website.
We use the following types of cookies:
Essential cookies
These are required for the website to function. They cannot be switched off. They include session cookies that keep pages loading correctly.
Analytics cookies
These help us understand how visitors use our site — which pages are most visited and how users navigate between shows. We use this data in anonymous, aggregated form.
Advertising cookies
Third-party ad networks may place cookies on your device to show you relevant ads. These cookies track browsing across websites and are controlled by the ad network, not us.
Functional cookies
These remember your preferences, such as your video player settings or content choices, to give you a better experience on return visits.
You can control or disable cookies through your browser settings. Please note that disabling certain cookies may affect how the website works. To find out how to manage cookies in your browser, visit your browser’s help documentation.
Third-party services and advertising
BrokenSilenze is a free website supported by advertising. We work with third-party advertising partners who may collect data about your browsing habits to show you personalized ads.
These third-party services may include:
- Google AdSense or similar ad networks — which may use cookies to serve ads based on your interests.
- Analytics providers (e.g. Google Analytics) — which help us understand site traffic in anonymized form.
- Video hosting or embed services — used to stream content on our pages.
- Content delivery networks (CDNs) — which help load our pages quickly around the world.
These third-party providers have their own privacy policies which govern how they collect and use data. We encourage you to read their policies. BrokenSilenze is not responsible for the privacy practices of third-party services.
You may opt out of personalized advertising through tools such as the Google Ads Settings page or the Network Advertising Initiative opt-out tool.
How we share your information
We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information to third parties for their own marketing purposes.
We may share limited information in the following situations:
- With service providers — companies that help us operate our website, such as hosting providers and analytics tools. They only use data as instructed by us.
- With advertising partners — anonymized or aggregated data to help display relevant ads.
- For legal compliance — if required by law, court order, or to protect the rights and safety of BrokenSilenze and its users.
- In a business transfer — if BrokenSilenze is acquired or merged with another entity, user data may be transferred as part of that transaction.
Data retention
We retain automatically collected data (such as server logs and analytics data) for a limited period, typically up to 26 months, after which it is deleted or anonymized.
If you contact us by email, we keep your message and contact details for as long as needed to respond to your inquiry or as required by applicable law.
Data controlled by third-party ad networks or analytics providers is retained according to their own policies.
Your privacy rights
Depending on where you live, you may have certain rights regarding your personal data. These may include:
- The right to access — you can ask us what personal data we hold about you.
- The right to correction — you can ask us to correct inaccurate data.
- The right to deletion — you can ask us to delete your personal data where we are not required by law to keep it.
- The right to opt out of advertising — you can opt out of personalized advertising through your browser or ad network settings.
- The right to withdraw consent — where we process data based on your consent, you can withdraw that consent at any time.
If you are located in the European Union or UK, these rights are provided under the GDPR and UK GDPR. If you are in California, the CCPA gives you additional rights regarding your personal information.
To exercise any of these rights, please contact us using the details at the bottom of this page.
Children’s privacy
BrokenSilenze is not directed at children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you are a parent or guardian and believe your child has provided us with personal information, please contact us immediately and we will delete it.
We encourage parents to monitor their children’s internet activity and to help enforce this policy.

Changes to this policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices or for legal, regulatory, or operational reasons. When we make changes, we will update the “Last Updated” date at the top of this page.
