Depending on the respective configuration of applications by the Federal Ministry of Education, the consent of the user may be a prerequisite for the transfer of personal data to an application.

Depending on the selected setting, this consent can be granted or revoked by the school or by the users or their legal representatives. If a school records the consent for the users, it is recommended to enter the basis on which the consent was given as a comment (e.g. "Written consent by legal guardian, document filed in the office"). This increases the traceability of how the data was passed on.
