You Are Responsible

CCTV Data Protection – Bizarrely the Act does not apply to the installing company but to you the owner (Data Processor) of the system. As such many security companies pay scant attention to the legal responsibilities of the Data protection Act and many never mention it when providing a quotation.

Keybury ensure that our systems keep you fully compliant from correct signage, documentation, annual assessments to automatic privacy-masking recordings.
