Eligible voters in Ebermannsdorf: Protect your data now!

On November 6, 2025, an important announcement on the right of those eligible to vote was published in Ebermannsdorf. This announcement is required in accordance with Section 50 Paragraph 5 of the Federal Registration Act (BMG) in order to inform citizens about their rights regarding the disclosure of their personal data. Especially before elections, registration authorities are allowed to provide parties and voter groups with information from the registration register for a period of six months.

Only first and last names, academic degrees and the addresses of those entitled to vote may be transmitted. However, it is important to note that birthdays may not be communicated. Citizens have the opportunity to object to the transmission of their data by setting up a transmission block. Anyone who has already lodged an objection does not have to confirm this decision again, as the ban remains in effect until revoked in writing.

Right to object and contact options

Eligible voters who would like to exercise their right to object can contact the municipality of Ebermannsdorf directly. The following contact options are available for questions and to lodge an objection:
– Room: 1
– Telephone: 09624-92030
– Email: gemeinde@ebermannsdorf.de
– Opening times: Monday to Friday from 8:30 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. and Tuesday and Thursday from 2:00 p.m. to 5:00 p.m.

An annual notice of the right to object now also includes the requirement to disseminate the information locally, in contrast to the previous regulation of a public notice. This is a significant change designed to ensure that all citizens are adequately informed about their rights.

Legal framework

According to the specifications of the BMG, as shown laws-im-internet.de As described in detail, regular data transfers to other public bodies are permitted, provided this is determined by federal or state law. The respective law must clearly define the reason, purpose, recipient and the data to be transmitted.

In addition, data subjects have the right to block transmission to the registration authority at no cost if they object. When registering to vote and no later than October of each year, citizens must be informed of their right to object.

For further information and detailed information on the right to object, the information leaflet is also available vgem-offingen.de relevant.

Regularly raising the awareness of eligible voters about their rights plays a crucial role in the democratic process and was once again underlined by this announcement in Ebermannsdorf.
