Accurate Entertainment & OTT Data Scraping for Streaming Intelligence

iWeb Scraping can extract data from all publicly available OTT platforms, entertainment portals, and content listing. The diversity of multi-platform allows for more visibility in the market with less reliance on a single data source. Having multiple sources allows for comparing similarities and differences across OTT platforms. It also helps the industry get a complete view of entertainment intelligence by creating a single, structured view of all content catalogs, OTT platform strategies, and regional differences between all.

Automated Extraction Workflows can extract data based on a user’s preferred timeframe. This will allow the users’ datasets to always be accurate and updated on an ongoing basis, so that the Business Intelligence meets analytical and scheduled reporting requirements. Automation through Automated Scheduling allows for less manual intervention and thus increases data consistency while ensuring that users will always have access to Content, Pricing and Catalog Changes.

Yes, we will customize your Entertainment and OTT Data Scraping project. This can be customised basis your specific platform, content type and delivery method among others. The workflows we create will be customized to address your exact objectives for the data you receive, along with all analytical use requirements and integration requirements. Using customized workflows will result in datasets that provide Entertainment Intelligence specific to your company’s needs rather than just a lot of irrelevant or generic data.

Yes, our iWeb Scraping infrastructure has been designed to be able to manage the extraction of high-volume entertainment and OTT data efficiently. Our operational systems maintain high levels of data quality, accuracy, consistency, performance and reliability when they are performing the extraction of very large numbers of dataobjects from multiple sources at the same time. Enterprise-class levels of scalability are needed to cover all enterprise-level markets and provide them with market intelligence, reporting and analytic requirements based on reliable data delivery.

Yes, we provide entertainment and OTT data in numerous file types, including .csv, .xlsx, .json and DB-ready format. We decide which formats to provide your data based on your own integration requirements, and the best way for you to import the data into your analytics platforms, dashboards and organisational environments. This makes it easy for our clients to use the data for analysis, reporting, and workflow creation.

Yes. The adaptive nature of scraping workflows utilizes logic to adapt to layout changes, structural changes, or other content presentations. This adaptation comes from the continuous performance monitoring of scraping workflows that reduces interruptions and ensures that the accuracy of data collected remains the same despite the frequent updates made to a platform.

Yes. The scraping workflows allow for performance monitoring on a continuous basis by monitoring data consistency, data extraction stability, and proactively responding to the changing elements of a platform. As a result, performance monitoring allows for continued, uninterrupted data delivery over time.

Workflows can be used to extract language-specific fields, location specific information like titles, descriptions, and metadata for multilingual content with proper encoding and normalization to support accurate representation of all characters, including those not written in English, allowing reliable evaluation of regional catalogues, localization tactics, and international performance without degrading or misrepresenting the material during ingest, creating inconsistencies with the formatting/moving of the input data through the scraping workflow to output.

Yes. The datasets that are delivered by the scraping workflows will come in formats and structures that support a seamless integration into your existing analytic tools and dashboards, as well as your databases.

Every OTT platform provides its content through the use of very specific layouts, filters, and metadata. The scraping workflows have been designed with the intent to create platform specifics that accurately reflect the content layouts and metadata of each OTT platform. Then, custom parsing rules have been created to provide for consistent multiple fields through a wide variety of platforms to allow for comparability of datasets across the different levels of structure and organization represented by the streaming and entertainment website in question.

We maintain strict confidentiality of entertainment and OTT data during the entire lifecycle (collecting, processing, delivering and storing) using secure methods such as encrypted data transmission, secure storage environments and strict access control procedures. Only individuals assigned specific roles (authorised) are allowed access to datasets at any time. Continuous monitoring and internal security controls help to reduce the risk of unauthorised access to client data and keep the data confidential and protected.

We are compliant with platform access and terms of use. iWeb Scraping thoroughly reviews their publicly accessible content and platform access guidelines prior to the commencement of data extraction. The implementation of our scraping workflows allow us to avoid the extraction of data from sections of the platform that have been restricted for collection, as well as authenticating, privileged or gated content. This helps to ensure that we are compliant with the platform’s access rules while permitting our clients to utilise ethical and responsible practices in their data collection activities, as well as limiting the potential for legal and operational risk to our clients’ data collection efforts.

The scraped data is not shared with third parties. In addition, the entertainment and OTT data collected through scraping efforts are for the sole use of the client for whom the project was done. The scraped data cannot be resold, redistributed, or shared with third parties, regardless of the circumstances. Ownership rights have been clearly defined and controlled so that they remain under strict confidentiality, and the data is exclusively used for the benefit of the client and therefore protects their interests, and promotes the responsible use of the data, which strictly adheres to the services contract and the project scope.

No, the data that is collected through entertainment and OTT scraping focuses only on the content and publicly available platform data. Therefore, no personal or private information that could be used to identify the user is collected, processed, or stored. This ensures the minimization of the potential for privacy breach and conforms to the basic principles of data protection by limiting the extractive activities associated with entertainment and OTT data scraping to the non-private and publicly available entertainment and OTT platform data.

Yes. iWeb Scraping’s data collection meets all the relevant data protection regulations as well as the best practices in the industry for data protection compliance. We regularly review compliance and governance to ensure accountability in the management of data and to support the lawful use of data.
