GDPR

The UK’s Leading CCTV Data Protection compliance company

The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) has brought about significant changes in Data Protection laws. Here are the key points to consider:
  • GDPR has introduced new elements, enhanced existing factors such as subject rights and consent, and made changes to transparency in data processing.
  • Organisations must provide comprehensive and easily accessible information to individuals concerning the processing of their personal data, demonstrating compliance with GDPR.
  • A new principle of accountability requires organisations to adopt technical and organisational measures and document them to demonstrate GDPR compliance.
  • Data Controllers must specify and document the lawful basis for processing each category of personal data under GDPR.
  • Under GDPR, personal data must be processed lawfully, fairly and transparently.
  • Processing Personal Data using CCTV can make transparency more difficult to achieve.
  • GDPR requires explicit and informed consent for the legal basis of data processing, including CCTV processing.
  • Consent must be unambiguous, freely given and specific under GDPR. Subjects also have the right to withdraw consent.
  • Data controllers should display their CCTV policy and lawful basis for processing within their privacy policy to comply with GDPR transparency requirements.
  • The accountability principle in GDPR requires data controllers to demonstrate compliance with each data protection principle.
  • Clear purpose is essential while deciding legal basis for data processing. Consider Data Subject rights while choosing a lawful basis.
Data Controllers:

The legal basis for processing personal data can be complex. Data controllers should seek further advice if unsure of the lawfulness of CCTV processing.

Under GDPR, data controllers can choose the following as their lawful basis for processing personal data:

  • Consent
  • Necessary for fulfilling a contract
  • Public task
  • Legitimate interest
  • Legal obligation
  • Vital interest
Datpro can provide comprehensive advice and assistance in this area to help data controllers comply with GDPR.
