Your data is collected in order to provide you with the information you have requested from the care register. Your data is processed on the basis of Art. 6 (1) (c) GDPR in conjunction with Sections 58 of the Eighth Social Code (SGB VIII).

As part of the certification process, we process the following personal data relating to you and your child:

• Last name, first names,
• address, marital status,
• date of birth, place of birth, birth certificate number, nationality.

If we have not received your data from you yourself, we will only collect your data from

• your child's legal representative
• the person or agency authorized by you
• the competent residents' registration office
• the locally competent registry office
• the locally competent immigration authority
• the relevant foreign mission
• the agency for international adoptions.

If you, as the mother, are not married to the child's father and no entries have been made in the custody register, you can request written information from the custody register (negative certificate) from the responsible youth welfare office. A custody register
is kept there for children of parents who are not married to each other. Entries are made in this custody register if:

• Declarations of custody are submitted.
• Custody has been transferred in whole or in part on the basis of a legally binding court decision.
• Custody has been completely or partially withdrawn from the mother or transferred to the father on the basis of a legally binding court decision.
• The youth welfare office where the mother has her habitual residence (place of residence) is always responsible for issuing written information from the custody register.
• The youth welfare office of the place of residence will, if necessary, contact the youth welfare office of the place of birth within the framework of administrative assistance, or the LJA Berlin in the case of children born abroad.

The data stored by the Youth Welfare Office will be deleted immediately if it is no longer necessary for the purposes for which it was collected (Art. 17 (1) (a) GDPR) or if one of the other reasons for deletion specified in Art. 17 (1) (b) GDPR applies.

Due to the requirements of the GDPR for immediate deletion, the data is stored as follows due to differing interests and limitation periods:

• until the child reaches the age of majority

After that, the files are destroyed in accordance with data protection regulations and the data is deleted.

According to the General Data Protection Regulation, you have the following rights:

• If your personal data is processed, you have the right to obtain information about the data stored about you (Art. 15 GDPR).
• If incorrect personal data is processed, you have the right to have it corrected (Art. 16 GDPR).
• If the legal requirements are met, you can request the deletion or restriction of processing
• and to object to the processing (Articles 17, 18, and 21 GDPR).

If you exercise your above-mentioned rights, the public authority will check whether the legal requirements for this are met.

You also have the right to lodge a complaint with the Rhineland-Palatinate State Commissioner for Data Protection and Freedom of Information.
