  • NOTE 2
    :1) Make sure people know they’re being recorded
    Transparency is a core principle of the GDPR.

    2) You must tell people when you’re collecting their personal information to give them the opportunity to exercise their data subject rights.

    These rights enable individuals to access the personal data organisations store on them and to challenge the way their information is used.

    You can make sure people are aware you’re recording them by posting signs that say CCTV is in operation.

    If you’re using CCTV to monitor employees, you should also explain in your privacy policy that they are being recorded.

    Most organisations have a retention period for CCTV footage, simply because it’s too impractical to keep the information indefinitely.

    Physical tapes will soon stack up and digital files will eat up memory. However, you must now be more systematic about how long you keep recordings.

    The Regulation states that you can only store information for as long as it’s necessary for the purpose for which it was collected, and you must outline that time frame before you start processing.

    You should therefore establish a system to make sure you delete information once the data retention deadline passes.

    As for how long ‘as long as necessary’ is, that depends entirely on why you are collecting the information. However, it’s unlikely that you will need to keep the data for more than a week or two.

  • NOTE 3
    Where it has not been possible or it is not considered either practicable or necessary to carry out a site survey, (for example the system design has been provided by the user or where the property has not been built) this fact and any limitations that may affect the design of the system, (for example, expected lux levels, proximity of adjacent properties, changes in internal layout) must be made in clear in the system design documentation.
