General Notes

- The ZDFtivi app is free, ad-free and without in-app purchases, like all ZDF online offers.
- The app is a safe area for children. Comments (optional) are checked by the ZDFtivi team and only released with moderation.
- A flat rate makes sense for use outside of a WLAN, as otherwise high connection costs can arise.
- For legal reasons, some ZDFtivi programs can only be accessed online as videos in Germany or in German-speaking countries (Germany, Austria, Switzerland) (geoblocking). A list of all programs available worldwide can be found here: https://www.zdf.de/kinder/ueber-zdftivi/zdftivi-weltweit-100.html
