Citizens' allowance applications in North Friesland: simply make online!

Nordfriesland, Deutschland - In North Friesland, applications for the citizens' allowance are now possible. This decision was made to make the application easier and enable citizens to access the required services faster. The new digital platform was made available by the competent office and is intended to support a comfortable submission of applications. Further information is on the Office of the Office nordfriesland.de to be found.

The introduction of this online application option comes at a time when more and more municipalities are looking for digital solutions for administrative processes. The aim of this initiative is to reduce the bureaucratic effort and to improve the efficiency of the processing of citizen benefit applications.

Legal aspects of online use

Another aspect that is relevant in connection with digitization and especially with websites and tracking tools concerns the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). Matomo, a well -known analysis tool, must be used in accordance with the requirements of the GDPR. This includes that the IP addresses of the users have to be anonymized to do justice to the data protection regulations, such as it-right Kanzlei reported.

Anonymization is, for example, by using the "Privacymanger" plugin, which automatically anonymized the last octet of the IP address. In addition, the express consent of users is required to set tracking cookies. Users must have the opportunity to revoke their consent at any time.
