They can be published in press releases, on the website, in print publications and external HAWK social media channels. For media that do not show persons of contemporary history, that have persons as so-called accessories or media that depict meetings or similar events and their nature, you will be asked for your consent on an individual basis. In the event that no consent is given or consent is withdrawn, no disadvantages will be suffered by the person concerned.
Legal basis
