PEACE OF MIND | AFFORDABLE PRICES
Many organisations use CCTV as part of their security or safeguarding measures. However, CCTV systems create their own set of data protection obligations under the UK GDPR, the Data Protection Act 2018, and ICO guidance.
If your business operates CCTV, you must ensure that the system is used lawfully, fairly, and transparently
— and that individuals’ rights are protected.
We provide clear, practical guidance to help you meet these requirements and avoid common compliance pitfalls.
CCTV captures personal data, and often special category data
Incorrect use can lead to complaints, enforcement action, or fines
Care homes, clinics, and small medical practices are subject to higher scrutiny
Proper documentation protects both your organisation and the people you care for
We offer practical, hands‑on support to help you understand your current level of compliance and strengthen it where needed. This includes:
A full audit of your existing data processing practices
Customised documentation tailored to your organisation
Clear, actionable advice on how to meet your legal obligations
Guidance that goes far beyond generic, off‑the‑shelf templates
One practitioner, operating in one location business
Up to five practitioners/employees, or two sites
More than five practitioners/employees;, or more than two sites
A tailored CCTV policy outlining how your system is used, who can access footage, how long recordings are kept, and how requests for footage are handled.
Advice on the legally required signage, including what information must be displayed and where signs should be placed.
Guidance on how long CCTV footage should be stored, how to manage access, and how to respond to requests from individuals or authorities.
Where required, we can complete a DPIA to assess risks and ensure your CCTV use is justified, proportionate, and compliant.
Clear instructions for staff on how to operate the system responsibly and in line with data protection law.
