Hi
I have some suggestions (discard them if you don't find them useful, no
worries):

I would change the title to:
Title: Debian Vendor Page update (takes 5 minutes to reply)
(see below for reasoning).

I would change question 1 for
1) Do you still provide Debian CD/DVDs?
I find "supports" word confusing ("are you a Debian consultant?"), but
I'm not a native speaker. If we don't want to use CD/DVDs we can change
to "media" or "install media". Maybe a complete reword of the CD section
is needed (e.g. the form only allows to check CD/DVD, if they sell
BlueRay or USB I guess they need to note it in the comments field).

I would change the "ifyes/ else" in question 2 for:
If yes : remove "NO" above and send your reply
else : Please go to this page to update your info:
https://www.debian.org/CD/vendors/adding-form
(and thus, no question 3 needed (in the form there is a link to the
vendors/info page).
This way, we would get "NO" answers for the entries needed to delete,
"YES" for the entries that remain current, and the traditional form
submission for the entries needed to update.
What do you think?
Best regards
