§ 25 HDSIG
Data Processing for Archival Purposes
(1)in the Public Interest
(2)By way of derogation from Art. 9 para. 1 of Regulation (EU) No 2016/679, the processing of special categories of personal data within the meaning of Art. 9 para. 1 of Regulation (EU) No 2016/679 shall be permissible where it is necessary for archival purposes in the public interest. The controller shall provide for appropriate and specific measures to safeguard the interests of the data subject pursuant to § 20 para. 2 sentence 2.
(3)The right of access of the data subject pursuant to Art. 15 of Regulation (EU) No 2016/679 shall not exist where the archival material is not indexed by the name of the person or where no information is provided that would enable the relevant archival material to be found with reasonable administrative effort.
(4)The right of the data subject to rectification pursuant to Art. 16 of Regulation (EU) No 2016/679 shall not exist where the personal data are processed for archival purposes in the public interest. If the data subject contests the accuracy of the personal data, he or she shall be given the opportunity to file a counter-statement. The competent archive shall be obliged to append the counter-statement to the records.
(5)The rights provided for in Art. 18 para. 1 letters a, b and d, Art. 20 and 21 of Regulation (EU) No 2016/679 shall not exist insofar as these rights are likely to render impossible or seriously impair the achievement of the archival purposes in the public interest and the exceptions are necessary for the fulfilment of those purposes. zur Einzelansicht § 25
