Data protection in everyday life: How to protect your data effectively!

The A27 motorway between Verden and Walsrode has been completely closed since yesterday, May 15, 2025. According to the directives from butenunbinnen.de, the closure will last until August 23, 2025, as extensive renovation work must be carried out on the road. The work is urgently needed to ensure the safety of road users and extend the life of the highway.

The diversion leads via the B215 and the B71 and is supported by additional signage in the evening hours. Residents and commuters are called upon to prepare for the changed traffic conditions in good time.

Traffic volumes and alternative routes

The closure is expected to lead to increased traffic on the diversion routes. It is therefore advisable to pay particular attention to traffic information during construction. Drivers may also consider alternative routes to avoid congestion. It is important to follow the traffic situation report to avoid unexpected delays.

Parallel to the highway work, there are also new developments in the area of ​​data protection that are important for many citizens. On May 25, 2018, the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) came into force, which regulates the handling of personal data in the EU. According to bfdi.bund.de, citizens have the right to be informed about the processing of their data and can rely on the provisions of the GDPR.

The right to informational self-determination is firmly anchored in the German Basic Law. These regulations are particularly relevant when it comes to the handling of personal data, such as that which arises when processed by authorities or companies. This makes it all the more important that citizens know and can enforce their rights.

The importance of data protection

The GDPR protects personal data and ensures citizens' rights to access and rectification. As a rule, such data may only be processed with the consent of the person concerned or on a legal basis. So if you have any doubts, you should get the information you need to know exactly how your data is being used.

In order to present this complex information clearly and easily, Radio Bremen offers both text and video content on its platform. Thanks to a new feature, external content can be accessed in a prioritized manner, which not only makes access easier but also ensures that users always stay informed. butenunbinnen.de has also included details on this.

The combination of necessary infrastructure development and the applicable data protection standards shows how crucial it is to plan ahead both in the transport infrastructure and in the digital space and to act for the benefit of citizens. Although the construction work will cause inconveniences, safety and the protection of individual rights remain the top priority.
