TDDDG
Abbreviation for Telekommunikation-Digitale-Dienste-Datenschutz-Gesetz
In short and in plain language
The TDDDG is a German law on data protection.
It covers phone, internet and digital services. It says when you need consent for cookies. The same goes for similar access to a visitor's device.
On a firm's website, this mostly means counting visitors. It also means content that comes from other sites.
