The Indexing Process
The authors, producers or rightsholders of the work in question are notified of the application or request for indexing. They have the right to a legal hearing. If a work has received a rating from the Freiwillige Selbstkontrolle der Filmwirtschaft (the film industry body which practises voluntary rating of movies) or the Unterhaltungssoftware Selbstkontrolle (the software industry body which practises voluntary rating of entertainment software), then the Bundesprüfstelle may not continue with the indexing process.

Famous quotes containing the word process:
“The invention of photography provided a radically new picture-making process—a process based not on synthesis but on selection. The difference was a basic one. Paintings were made—constructed from a storehouse of traditional schemes and skills and attitudes—but photographs, as the man on the street put, were taken.”
—Jean Szarkowski (b. 1925)
