Protect Header/Footer in a document, but allow tracked changes of the document body

Hello,

I have a document with a header/footer that users are not allowed to change.

But the body of the document shall be allowed to be edited by the users in track change mode.

How can this be combined?

Thank you so much for every hint.

Regards
Florian
