The current coexistence of different laws (GDPR, TMG and TKG) leads to legal uncertainties. A new law should therefore ensure legal certainty in the area of telemedia and telecommunications.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In detail it says here: „The data protection provisions of the TMG and the TKG, including the provisions on the protection of telecommunications secrecy, are to be repealed and merged in a new law. At the same time, the necessary adjustments to the GDPR are to be made.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This concerns, inter alia, consumers using telemedia and electronic communications services, the providers of these services and the regulatory authorities responsible for ensuring legal compliance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Among other things, the speaker’s draft announces the deletion of \u00a7 15 Telemediengesetz, for whose interpretation in paragraph 3 the Federal Court of Justice (BGH) had passed the so-called „Planet 49“ judgement on May 28th on the consent to the storage of cookies. We had already reported on this in the June issue of our ePrivacy Newsletter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
