\u00a0<\/strong>It\u2019s important for people to know their data protection rights, and CCTV and GDPR considerations is a new thing for people and organisations to consider.<\/p>\n

It has been suggested that many do not know that GDPR has an impact on CCTV since the new changes in power came in to affect in May 2018. CCTV is, after all, widespread \u2013 really widespread \u2013 throughout the UK. It\u2019s now also commonly used by organisations in the office as well as outside an office for security, and is typically used on-board commercial vehicles, largely for security, legal and health and safety reasons.<\/p>\n

But, what about the relationship between CCTV and GDPR?<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Images captured by CCTV is normally classed as personally-identifiable information within meaning of the GDPR. The fact that images are being collected and stored must usually be done for a strong and valid reason in order to justify the recording of personally-identifiable information within meaning of the GDPR.<\/p>\n

As your personal data is being collected, you should have provided informed consent. Many places will have signage to confirm CCTV is in operation, but in workplaces or commercial vehicles, potentially more images \u2013 and therefore more data – is being collected.<\/p>\n

This is key for new links between CCTV and GDPR.<\/p>\n

The retention of images recorded is also a key thing for people to consider. Most organisations, we find, don\u2019t retain CCTV images for a long period of time unless it\u2019s being used for a legal action. It\u2019s normally recorded-over fairly quickly. But, if an organisation intends to keep hold of footage for longer, how aware are you as to how long the images \u2013 i.e. your personally-identifiable information \u2013 will be kept for, or in what format it will be kept, and where, or with whom?<\/p>\n

GDPR should heavily influence the way in which both organisations and people being recorded see the use of CCTV footage. CCTV and GDPR now go hand-in-hand now. Whilst there\u2019s little doubt that the use of CCTV is often vital for legal and safety reasons, new obligations the GDPR has brought in cannot be ignored.<\/p>\n
