The provision of information and granting permission to consult records to the persons concerned are governed by the provisions of the Data Protection Act of 25 September 20201. Rulings on refusals of information and permission to consult records are issued by the bodies delivering the records.2
The Federal Archives may in addition defer or restrict the provision of information if such provision is not compatible with the efficient management of administrative activities.
The persons concerned may not request the destruction or correction of data; they may merely have the records annotated to the effect that the data is disputed or incorrect.
