• Filmaffinity is a website created by Pablo Kurt Verdú and Daniel Nicolás in 2002. It is part of the company Filmaffinity S.L. This company does not belong to any media group and it has no link with any company related to the advertisements. Thus, Filmaffinity guarantees the independency and impartiality of all its content.

• We remain deeply commited to maintaining the privacy of our users by unswervingly abiding by current legal regulations. Filmaffinity guarantees that all the information gathered online will be stored in an electronically protected database.

• In order to access all Filmaffinity services, you need to register. When you register with us, you will be required to provide certain information.

Similarly, Filmaffinity does not guarantee the publication of received ratings and reviews, and it reserves the right to alter, edit or delete them without prior notification. Furthermore, Filmaffinity reserves the right to delete any user content that is deemed inappropriate or disrespectful. The latter particularly applies to offensive reviews, as well as ratings which may be under suspicion for tampering with average ratings.

• Terms and conditions

Filmaffinity reserves the right to edit or delete any user data that may be considered inappropriate or obsolete without previous notification. Any sign of inappropriate use of the website, or tampering thereof will result in the subsequent deletion of suspicious accounts.

In order to ensure the reliability, transparency, impartiality and objectivity of the data available on our website, Filmaffinity reserves the right to delete any ratings belonging to newly registered users having less than 6 months of activity on the website, less than 10 logins, or less than 200 rated films. Special attention will be paid to new film releases in each country, as well as recently awarded movies, current nominees, or new films with few ratings that are thus susceptible of tampering.

Additionally, Filmaffinity remains committed to improving existing automatic controls, such as filters, automatic and manually controlled corrective measures, as well as tampering detection systems for movie ratings.

At Filmaffinity, we would like to underline and stress our commitment to reliability, transparency, impartiality, and objectivity regarding all information currently stored in the Filmaffinity database. Our commitment strikes us as particularly important in the following areas:

Average ratings of all movies and TV series. Movie ratings by users. Selected excerpts and reviews from relevant media. Trending media and professional reviews. Review ratings by users.
