The protection of personal data is a very important concern for the Robert Koch Institute (RKI). As a federal authority, the Robert Koch Institute is subject to the provisions of the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and the Federal Data Protection Act (BDSG). In principle, it is possible to use the RKI's website (www.daly.rki.de) without disclosing personal data. When using the contact form, and when contacting the RKI by telephone, personal data is processed. Automated decision-making (so-called profiling) does not take place.
Personal data is information that relates to an identified or identifiable person. This includes information that allows conclusions to be drawn about your identity. Further definitions of the terms used (e.g. 'processing') can be found in Art. 4 GDPR.
As new technologies and the constant development of this website may result in changes to this data protection declaration, we recommend that you read through the data protection declaration again at regular intervals.
The storage is carried out in accordance with the guideline for the processing and administration of written material in federal ministries, which is implemented in the RKI as the Registry Guideline (RegR).

As far as we process personal data from you, you are entitled to the following data protection rights:
The RKI takes the current discussion about data protection in social networks very seriously. It is currently not conclusively clarified in legal terms whether and to what extent all networks offer their services in accordance with European data protection regulations.
We therefore expressly draw attention to the fact that the services used by the RKI, Twitter and YouTube, store the data of their users (e.g. personal information, IP address) in accordance with their data usage guidelines and use it for business purposes.
The RKI has no influence on the collection of data and its further use by the social networks. Thus, there is no knowledge about the extent to which, where and for how long the data is stored, to what extent the networks comply with existing deletion obligations, what evaluations and links are made with the data and to whom the data is passed on.
