Helps to reduce the risk of Civil Claims & ICO Fines
If you fail to meet your legal obligations, the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO) has the power to issue fines to both individuals and businesses.
Private citizens may also pursue you for compensation through the civil courts if they believe you have invaded their privacy or otherwise failed to uphold their rights.
A 2021 civil case between two neighbours found that one of them had invaded the privacy of the other through their use of a CCTV system and a Video Doorbell. The claimant had sought damages for invasion of privacy and harassment and the court subsequently found in their favour.
Assistance with Subject Access Requests (SARs)
The Data Protection Act (2018) gives individuals certain rights when it comes to their personal data - CCTV recordings featuring an individual are considered to be personal data.
Individuals have a legal right to request copies of footage of themselves that you might hold. They can request this by submitting what is known as a Subject Access Request to you.
The process of responding to such requests is often complex and confusing. GDPR Safe help policy holders by acting as an intermediary between them and the individuals that submit such requests.
