In the current Women World Championship the games are transmitted with a delay to avoid cheating. Searching if something similar will happen for the Candidates tournament I could just found the information that the games will be only be available in the official webpage.
Is it going to be any delay or any other anti-cheating measure that affects the broadcasting of the games applied in the Candidates?

It is mostly Agon protecting their commercial rights to the event.
They forbid rebroadcasting and require users / viewers to login and click agreement to a complicated piece of lawyer-speak which is unintelligible to normal people.
Being cynical I expect any delay for other organizations covering the event will come from one of their members subscribing and then playing the moves on a chessboard in front of him so somebody else can broadcast them.
There is no copyright on chess moves or games, only on commentary.
