A town in Bavaria, Germany, has a Christmas tradition where children are invited to write letters to Santa Claus requesting gifts and experiences.The letters are then put on the Christmas tree in the baroque town's marketplace.

This year, the tradition looked like it would have to end because of new European rules to protect the use of data. It was felt that children's names and addresses should not be in the public square. But that was avoided when the local radio station stepped in.

Florian Weiss, host of Antenne Bayern, takes up the story.
