Data protection on the web: approval of cookies - the TDDDG in focus!

In the past few days, the situation of the TowerStars has worsened in the DEL2 after only achieving one point against the Eisbären Regensburg on December 14, 2024. The game ended 4: 3 after an exciting penalty shootout. Despite a strong combative performance, the trainer is concerned about the unconstance of his team, as rv-news.de reported. For the tower stars, it was the second defeat in a row, which also endangers the placement in the table. Without clear support and with little constancy, the TowerStars threatens serious problems in the fight for the playoff places.

New consent requirement for websites

At the same time, the new TDDSG, which came into force on May 14, 2024, brings significant changes for website operators. The law implements the EPRIVACY guideline in German law and now requires express consent of users before cookies or similar technologies for data storage, such as dr---gvo.de informed. This change in the law concerns all end devices, whether computers or smartphones, and aims to strengthen data protection. In particular, it is important that users only provide personal data if they have previously been sufficiently informed about the use.

While the tower stars have to take care of their sporting future, website operators are faced with the challenge of adapting to the newly created legal framework. The obligation to obtain user approval will drastically change the way in which online advertising and data collection are carried out. The consent must be clear and clear, while the possibility of using certain cookie types without consent is severely restricted. Visitors of websites are now made much more difficult to move through online worlds unnoticed.
