A method for validating broadcasting conditions of digital content, by using a diffuser having a first set of data describing a structural configuration of a broadcast, a second set of data describing operational conditions of the diffuser, and a third set of data describing conditions defined by a supplier of the digital content including operational conditions and structural conditions, the method comprising:
- receiving the third set of data defined by the supplier for at least one digital content and storing the third set of data in a database of the diffuser,
- preparing a broadcast of the at least one digital content without any interaction with a terminal executed by the diffuser by establishing:
- the structural configurations of the broadcast by introducing characteristics of different equipments intended for broadcasting in order to set the first set of data, and
- the operational conditions of the broadcast by introducing at least the time and date of the broadcast in order to set the second set of data,
- extracting, from the database, the third set of data related to the digital content,
- verifying, for the digital content based on the third set of data, the broadcast conditions as set forth in the first set of data and the second set of data, and
- emitting a corresponding report on the verification step.
