In contrast, the press has the right to edit personal stories, economic incidents or political scandals and make them available to the public. Especially when it comes to explosive topics.<\/p>\n<p>However, data subjects would very rarely consent to processing or publication. This would result in a curtailment of the public interest in information, the so-called \"freedom of the press\". For this reason, the principle of media privilege applies.<\/p>\n<h2>Data protection legislation: the media privilege<\/h2>\n<p>The background to the emergence of the media privilege is the safeguarding of the\u00a0<span class=\"plainlinks-print\">Article 5<\/span>\u00a0Paragraph 1 of the Basic Law guarantees freedom of the press, which is intended to prevent state influence on the media.

Previously, the media privilege was regulated in \u00a7 41 BDSG. The media privilege has many advantages for people working in the media (e.g. journalists):<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>In the case of editorial activities, the consent of the person concerned is not required if a journalist processes personal data exclusively for journalistic purposes. It is necessary to weigh up the general personal rights of the data subjects against the public interest in information.<\/li>\n<li>Journalists do not have to inform data subjects of their rights of access, opposition, etc. in relation to data processing.<\/li>\n<li>Journalists only have an obligation to provide information to those affected if general personal rights have been violated. If the journalist has a legitimate interest, such as protection of sources or research, the statement can be refused.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>To whom does the media privilege apply<\/h2>\n<p>By law, the media privilege applies to \"state broadcasting corporations affiliated in the ARD, the ZDF, Deutschlandradio, private broadcasters or companies and auxiliary press companies\" (Section 9c RStV) as well as \"all media providers active in telemedia and their auxiliary companies\" (Section 57 RStV). Similar regulations apply to print media in the state press regulations.<\/p>\n<p>However, the German legal situation is currently still unclear with regard to persons directly working as journalists on behalf of media companies, i.e. freelance journalists and bloggers.<\/p>\n<h2>Data protection obligations that must be observed despite media privilege<\/h2>\n<p>If a media company or journalist processes data that has no direct connection to journalistic activity (e.g. e-mail addresses for newsletter subscriptions), the provisions of the DSGVO apply without restriction.<\/p>\n<p>However, a recent decision of the 15th Civil Senate of the Higher Regional Court of Cologne also shows the limits of the media privilege. Patient rights as well as medical secrecy must also be taken into account by journalists, such as a\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.aerztezeitung.de\/praxis_wirtschaft\/recht\/article\/993186\/datenschutz-patientenrecht-geht-recherche-interesse.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Article in the \u00c4rztezeitung<\/a>\u00a0makes it clear.<\/p>\n<h2>Recommendation from Robin Data<\/h2>\n<p>Persons working in the media who by law are not covered by the media privilege because they are not part of a media company or broadcasting organisation should invoke the media privilege in the event that an incident concerning researched personal data is reported. Furthermore, the development of the legal situation should be monitored. Of particular interest are decisions by\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.bfdi.bund.de\/DE\/Infothek\/Anschriften_Links\/anschriften_links-node.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Data Protection Authorities<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><br \/>\n<div  class='avia-button-wrap av-k9chhpx2-ae90dc8239abe94f83aa23d18c5ebb00-wrap avia-button-left  avia-builder-el-10  el_after_av_textblock  avia-builder-el-last'>\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-k9chhpx2-ae90dc8239abe94f83aa23d18c5ebb00\">\n#top #wrap_all .avia-button.av-k9chhpx2-ae90dc8239abe94f83aa23d18c5ebb00{\nbackground-color:#127db3;\nborder-color:#127db3;\ncolor:#ffffff;\ntransition:all 0.4s ease-in-out;\n}\n#top #wrap_all .avia-button.av-k9chhpx2-ae90dc8239abe94f83aa23d18c5ebb00 .avia-svg-icon svg:first-child{\nfill:#ffffff;\nstroke:#ffffff;\n}\n<\/style>\n<a href='https:\/\/www.robin-data.io\/en\/events\/demo'  class='avia-button av-k9chhpx2-ae90dc8239abe94f83aa23d18c5ebb00 av-link-btn avia-icon_select-no avia-size-medium avia-position-left'  target=\"_blank\"  rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"  aria-label=\"Book demo\"><span class='avia_iconbox_title' >Book demo<\/span><\/a><\/div><\/p><\/div>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-38irt4-a3265c4a84bbfe7bcd111a53bb63e885\">\n.flex_column.av-38irt4-a3265c4a84bbfe7bcd111a53bb63e885{\nborder-radius:10px 10px 10px 10px;\npadding:50 px 50 px 50 px 50 px;\nbackground-color:#f7f7f7;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='flex_column av-38irt4-a3265c4a84bbfe7bcd111a53bb63e885 av_one_full  avia-builder-el-11  el_after_av_one_full  el_before_av_one_full  first flex_column_div  column-top-margin'     ><p><br \/>\n<div  class='av-social-sharing-box av-ka3jmz4x-5dcebd1f09db7c20daac0063288815c9 av-social-sharing-box-default  avia-builder-el-13  el_after_av_codeblock  avia-builder-el-last  av-social-sharing-box-fullwidth'><div class=\"av-share-box\"><h5 class='av-share-link-description av-no-toc'>Do you like the piece?
