CCTV and body-worn cameras

We operate Closed Circuit Television (CCTV) systems on, and around the perimeter of, our sites and premises. This includes CCTV recording of external site areas such as walkways, roads and other public areas.

We also equip security staff with body-worn camera devices for use on, and around the perimeter of, our sites and premises. These devices may be used in recordings of external site areas such as walkways, roads and other public areas around out sites and premises.

This processing will also include investigations into alleged offences and/or security concerns, as appropriate.

We may process:

• static and moving images of individuals;
• vehicle registration information; and
• in the context of body-worn cameras, audio recordings.

We do not deliberately set out to capture any special category data. However, cameras (including body-worn devices) may incidentally record information which falls within these categories.

We carry out these activities: to ensure a safe and secure environment for the benefit of those who work at and visit our premises and sites; to minimise unlawful disruption to our business operations; to protect our business; to ensure the physical security of our assets for health and safety purposes; and as required for relevant government accreditation requirements.

This processing is necessary for the purpose of the legitimate interests pursued by the Company.

(See “What are the legal grounds for processing personal information?” in the Overview section.)

The Company considers that it has a legitimate interest in ensuring that its business, clients, staff members and systems are protected.

The Company’s legitimate interests include:

1. Protecting the safety and security of its workforce, contractors, visitors and members of the public generally;
2. Protecting its property, assets and the integrity of its systems;
3. Minimising unlawful disruption to its business operations and events;
4. Defending legal claims and/or supporting civil action in the courts;
5. Cooperating with national and governmental authorities;
6. Detecting and preventing loss of its confidential information and proprietary information;
7. Detecting and preventing crimes or criminal activity; 
8. Reducing the fear of crime and offering reassurance to staff;
9. Collecting evidence of harassment or abuse against our employees, contractors and visitors; and
10. Ensuring compliance with health and safety and other legal requirements placed upon it (e.g. by UK and non-UK laws).

The information processed by the CCTV systems and/or body-worn camera devices is generated by those systems/device(s) (see “Where do you get my personal information from?” in the Overview section).

In addition, we may work with business partners and suppliers to carry out this activity.   We may receive information from other sources as set out in this Notice (see “Where do you get my personal information from?” in the Overview section).

Sometimes we need to share your personal information with others.
 
Your personal information may be shared internally, as set out in this Notice (see “When do you share my personal information with others?” in the Overview section).
 
In addition, some of your personal information may be shared with our service providers, partners or professional advisers as needed and as otherwise set out in this Notice (see “When do you share my personal information with others?” in the Overview section).
 
We may also share your personal information with:

• the Police;
• other third party organisations (where appropriate), e.g. insurance companies should there be a traffic accident or incident involving damage to parked cars.
