A receiving device comprising: a receiving unit configured to receive AV content; a continuation range information acquisition unit configured to acquire continuation range information for specifying a range on a time axis in which an operation of an application program simultaneously executed with the AV content is able to continue; and a control unit configured to terminate the application program being executed based on the continuation range information, wherein the AV content is transmitted through a broadcast wave and the AV content is a broadcast program, wherein the continuation range information includes information that is included in predetermined information transmitted through the broadcast wave and is used to designate a predetermined event from which it is possible to specify a continuation range of an operation of the application program, wherein the control unit is configured to terminate the application program being executed when a forced termination signal of the application program, which is included in a download info indication, DII, transmitted through data carousel transmission using the broadcast wave, is detected as the designated event of the continuation range information, wherein the control unit is configured to terminate the application program when a change of content of the broadcast program is detected as the designated event, wherein the control unit is configured to terminate the application program when a change of content of data broadcast simultaneously executed with the broadcast program is detected as the designated event, and wherein the control unit is configured to terminate the application program when a change of content of the application program is detected as the designated event. a receiving unit configured to receive AV content; a continuation range information acquisition unit configured to acquire continuation range information for specifying a range on a time axis in which an operation of an application program simultaneously executed with the AV content is able to continue; and a control unit configured to terminate the application program being executed based on the continuation range information, wherein the AV content is transmitted through a broadcast wave and the AV content is a broadcast program, wherein the continuation range information includes information that is included in predetermined information transmitted through the broadcast wave and is used to designate a predetermined event from which it is possible to specify a continuation range of an operation of the application program, wherein the control unit is configured to terminate the application program being executed when a forced termination signal of the application program, which is included in a download info indication, DII, transmitted through data carousel transmission using the broadcast wave, is detected as the designated event of the continuation range information, wherein the control unit is configured to terminate the application program when a change of content of the broadcast program is detected as the designated event, wherein the control unit is configured to terminate the application program when a change of content of data broadcast simultaneously executed with the broadcast program is detected as the designated event, and wherein the control unit is configured to terminate the application program when a change of content of the application program is detected as the designated event.
