Evidence records show the request as captured, with identifiers and tokens redacted. Findings labeled Unknown state what could not be established; they are not findings of absence.

Title-level viewing events sent to a measurement company

Starting in 4.2.0, play, pause, and completion events with title IDs were sent to Crestline Measurement alongside the TV advertising ID.

Why it matters
Viewing history can reveal interests and household routines, especially with a TV advertising ID.
Conditions
Consent accepted · Lumen TV OS 9.2 · App 4.2.0
Confidence basis
Readable contents; title IDs matched what was played.
Limits of this finding
Downstream use unknown. Crestline’s parent, Meridian Media Group, also owns Adreach — that does not establish data passed between them.
What you can do
