Important changes in data protection: what that means for you!

Again and again the A27 between Verden and Walsrode becomes the subject, especially when it comes to traffic routing. This route is currently closed, which affects not only commuters, but also numerous travelers. Do certain restrictions apply here? According to Radio Bremen is necessary for various reasons, whereby the detours should ensure safe driving under the given circumstances.

The probably important concern on such a topic is the security of everyone involved. Of course, it cannot be hidden that the current construction sites can sometimes be a test of patience. Precise planning and timely information from drivers are decisive here to avoid traffic jams and displeasure. The information about the closures and diversions want to make traffic as fluid as possible in these times.

data protection and the rights of users

Another current topic is data protection, especially with regard to the use of digital content. The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) has been in force since May 25, 2018 and ensures that personal data is comprehensively protected by the user. The Federal Data Protection (BFDI) recalls that the use of personal data is only permitted with the consent of the person concerned or on a legal basis. This applies not only to large companies, but also small and medium -sized companies.

A central point of the GDPR is the control of data security through independent areas. This measure is considered necessary in order to protect the fundamental right to informational self -determination - i.e. the right to decide which personal data may be processed. The GDPR is supplemented by the Federal Data Protection Act (BDSG) and various state laws, which is especially important for security authorities.

improve the user experience

In the digital age, it is also important that users can influence their personal data themselves. Radio Bremen informs that users have the opportunity to object to data acquisition and transmission. In the event of external content that is integrated on websites, users must actively agree to display them. This affects well -known platforms such as the ARD media library or social networks. This means that users have control over their own data and can decide for themselves which content they want to see.
