A regional high court in Germany ruled that all intimate material should be destroyed following the termination of a relationship if either party makes the request.
The ruling came after a woman brought her ex-partner, a professional photographer, to court demanding he delete the erotic photographs and videos he took of her with her consent. The Higher Regional Court of Koblenz agreed with the plaintiff, saying that consent to take and store intimate and nude material can be withdrawn at the partner’s request as an issue of privacy rights. The court said that a person’s right to privacy trumped photograph ownership rights.
