Data protection protects you from misuse of your data by third parties.

Technical progress enables personal data to be collected ever more quickly and extensively. Both public authorities and the private sector process a great deal of information about applicants or their customers. Name, address and birth data are stored, as is information on purchasing behavior or income, for example. For you as a citizen, it is becoming increasingly difficult to keep track of who is storing data about you, what information is involved and, above all, whether this data processing is also permitted.
