General Information Pursuant to Section 55 of the Federal Data
General information pursuant to Section 55 of the Federal Data Protection Act (Bundesdatenschutzgesetz - BDSG) regarding data processing by customs authorities in the context of criminal offences and infringements of rules of law (Last updated: December 2018) Preface Among the functions of Customs are the prevention, detection, investigation and prosecution of certain offences and infringements of rules of law including the enforcement of the fines imposed by the customs authorities. In order to fulfil this role, the customs services are entitled to process personal data. The information detailed in this letter concerns: • Controls under aspects of customs and movement of cash law • Procedures concerning tax-related criminal offences and infringements of rules of law • Procedures concerning criminal offences and infringements in non-tax relevant areas (excluding the Financial Monitoring Unit to Control Unreported or Illicit Employment) The information contained herein only concerns the processing of personal data by the customs authorities (main customs offices, customs investigation offices, the German Customs Criminological Office, the Federal Treasury and its branches, and the General Customs Directorate). Data processing by the tax administration (tax offices, regional finance directorates, state offices for finance, Federal Central Tax Office) is not addressed. “Personal data” means any information that directly relates to an identified or identifiable natural person. When financial authorities “process” personal data, it means that they collect, save, apply, transfer, make available for retrieval, edit or delete data. In the following we will provide information about the kind of personal data that we collect, who we collect it from, and what we do with this data. In addition, we will inform you about your privacy rights in relation to data protection and advise you on whom to contact if you have any questions or complaints. -

However, it receives much less attention from international scientific community than thermal imagers or visible/NIR imagers due to se− ries of reasons. This paper presents a review of a modern night vision technology and can help readers to understand sophis− ticated situation on the international night vision market.

International Traffic in Arms Regulations As of April 15, 2021 Page 2 of 246 How to Use This ITAR
International Traffic in Arms Regulations as of April 15, 2021 Page 2 of 246 How to use this ITAR NOTE 1: This edition is prepared by Exports International USA, LLC, and it incorporates all official State/DDTC changes through April 15, 2021. To aid understanding, we at ElL have reformatted this ITAR with an outline-indented format that makes the regulation much easier to understand. For reasons of tradition, U.S. statutes and regulations tend toward a minimalist formatting, with all levels of paragraph numbering and lettering sharing the left margin. This can get bewildering when there are four or five levels of logical subservience, and conventional indent-formatting is more easily followed. NAVIGATION LIVE LINKS: Clicking on the cover page will take you to the master TOC page. We added that master Table of Contents on Page 3, and it is live-linked to the pages in the ITAR. That is, if you hover over any TOC line entry and click, you will be taken to that particular page in the ITAR. Additionally, we live-linked each individual TOC at the beginning of each Part (120 thru 130) to do the same. You can click on the heading titles of the 11 main Parts (i.e. Parts 120 thru 130) to return to the main TOC. As an example, starting with the bottom half of the cover page, it is three clicks to get you to the Canadian Exemptions at § 126.5. And once at § 126.5, you can click on that 126.5 paragraph title to return to the individual Part 126 TOC. -

Predominant themes include resistance, rebellion and espionage against Establishment powers. Additional information unavailable without proper clearance codes. Setting & Flavor: You are a Ghost. You do not officially exist. In a world where someone's information is more real than their corporeal bodies, you are a dropped packet, a glitch. Power brokers, agitators, gangsters and Corporate fixers hire specialists like you to handle discreet and dangerous business, the sort that can never make the news under any circumstances. Your ability to move undetected is your principal asset; you are 100% deniable and that's precisely what your employers want. The world is completely controlled by Corporate entities. Real governments lost their teeth decades ago; they all kowtow before the Altars of Commerce. Elected officials serve at the pleasure of their Executive handlers, indulging their every whim. All business and communication occurs over a world-spanning Internet that is tenaciously metered, controlled and regulated by Corporate masters. An active underground has sprung up to try and keep at least some parts of the Net truly wild and free but they are the silent voice in the choir.
