Purpose

BEAUTY BOX BRISTOL LTD (referred to hereafter as the ‘Company’) uses closed circuit television (CCTV) images to provide a safe and secure environment for employees and for visitors to the Company’s business premises, such as clients, customers, apprentices, contractors and suppliers, and to protect the Company’s property.

This policy sets out the use and management of the CCTV equipment and images in compliance with the Data Protection Act 1998, General Data Protection Regulations (GDPR) and the CCTV Code of Practice.

The Company’s CCTV facility records images only. There is no audio recording i.e. conversations are not recorded on CCTV (but see the section on covert recording).

Key principles

The purposes of the Company installing and using CCTV systems include:

To assist in the prevention or detection of crime or equivalent malpractice

To assist in the identification and prosecution of offenders

To monitor the security of the Company’s business premises

To ensure that health and safety rules and Company procedures are being complied with.

To assist with the identification of unauthorised actions or unsafe working practices that might result in disciplinary proceedings being instituted against employees and to assist in providing relevant evidence

To promote productivity and efficiency

Who does this policy apply to?

Any employee who works for the Company, as well as any other individuals working at or visiting the Company premises or engaged by the Company. It also applies to [apprentices signed up by the Company (and their parents/carers, where they are deemed to be young people or vulnerable adults), and] visitors to the Company, as well as agency workers, casual workers, contractors, consultants, interns, seconded staff, agents, suppliers and sponsors, or any other person associated with us (“associated persons”).

Location of cameras

Cameras are located at strategic points throughout the Company’s business premises, principally at the entrance and exit points. The Company has positioned the cameras so that they only cover communal or public areas on the Company’s business premises and they have been sited so that they provide clear images. No camera focuses, or will focus, on toilets, treatment rooms, shower facilities or changing rooms.

All cameras (with the exception of any that may be temporarily set up for covert recording) are also clearly visible.

Appropriate signs are prominently displayed so that employees, clients, customers and other visitors are aware they are entering an area covered by CCTV.

Recording and retention of images

Images produced by the CCTV equipment are intended to be as clear as possible so that they are effective for the purposes set out above. Maintenance checks of the equipment are undertaken on a regular basis to ensure it is working properly and that the media is producing high quality images.

Images may be recorded 24 hours a day throughout the year.

As the recording system records digital images, any CCTV images that are held on the hard drive of a PC or server are deleted and overwritten on a recycling basis and, in any event, are not held for more than one month. Once a hard drive has reached the end of its use, it will be erased prior to disposal. However, where a law enforcement agency is investigating a crime, images may need to be retained for a longer period.

Access to and disclosure of images

Access to, and disclosure of, images recorded on CCTV is restricted. This ensures that the rights of individuals are retained. Images can only be disclosed in accordance with the purposes for which they were originally collected.

The images that are filmed are recorded centrally and held in a secure location. Access to recorded images is restricted to the operators of the CCTV system and to those line managers who are authorised to view them in accordance with the purposes of the system. Viewing of recorded images will take place in a restricted area to which other employees will not have access when viewing is occurring. If media on which images are recorded are removed for viewing purposes, this will be documented.

Disclosure of images to other third parties will only be made in accordance with the purposes for which the system is used and will be limited to:

The police and other law enforcement agencies, where the images recorded could assist in the prevention or detection of a crime or the identification and prosecution of an offender or the identification of a victim or witness

Prosecution agencies, such as the Crown Prosecution Service

Relevant legal representatives

Line managers involved with Company disciplinary and performance management processes

Individuals whose images have been recorded and retained (unless disclosure would prejudice the prevention or detection of crime or the apprehension or prosecution of offenders)

The Managing Director of the Company (or another senior director acting in their absence) is the only person who is permitted to authorise disclosure of images to external third parties such as law enforcement agencies.

All requests for disclosure and access to images will be documented, including the date of the disclosure, to whom the images have been provided and the reasons why they are required. If disclosure is denied, the reason will be recorded.

Individual’s access rights

Under the Data Protection Act 1998, and GDPR 2018, individuals have the right on request to receive a copy of the personal data that the Company holds about them, including CCTV images if they are recognisable from the image. If you wish to access any CCTV images relating to you, you must make a written request to the Company’s Director. There will generally be no fee charged for the supply of the images, unless the request is considered when a request is manifestly unfounded or excessive , particularly if it is repetitive or to comply with requests for further copies of the same information, in line with GDPR guidelines. Your request must include the date and approximate time when the images were recorded and the location of the particular CCTV camera, so that the images can be easily located and your identity can be established as the person in the images. The Company will respond promptly and in any case within 30 calendar days of receiving the request.

The Company will always check the identity of the employee or person (if external body) making the request before processing it.

The Company’ will first determine whether disclosure of your images will reveal third party information as you have no right to access CCTV images relating to other people. In this case, the images of third parties may need to be obscured if it would otherwise involve an unfair intrusion into their privacy.

If the Company is unable to comply with your request because access could prejudice the prevention or detection of crime or the apprehension or prosecution of offenders, you will be advised accordingly.

Staff training

The Company will ensure that all employees handling CCTV images or recordings are trained in the operation and administration of the CCTV system and on the impact of the Data Protection Act 1998 and GDPR 2018 with regard to that system.

Implementation

The Company’s Managing Director is responsible for the implementation of and compliance with this policy and the operation of the CCTV system and they will conduct a regular review of the Company’s use of CCTV. Any complaints or enquiries about the operation of the Company’s CCTV system should be addressed to them.

Non-compliance

It is your personal responsibility to adhere to this policy.

Breach of any of the provisions of this policy will constitute a disciplinary offence and will be dealt with in accordance with the Company’s Disciplinary Procedure. Depending on the gravity of the offence, it may be treated as gross misconduct and could render you liable to summary dismissal.

As far as associated persons are concerned, breach of this policy could lead to the suspension or termination of any relevant contract, sub-contract or other agreement with the associated person.

You must co-operate fully possible in any investigation into suspected breaches of this policy.

Management discretion

The Company reserves the right to alter, amend or remove this policy at any time in line with changing Company or legislative requirements. Due notice will be given and staff will be notified accordingly.

Every employee or associated person who is in the employment/associated with of the Company twenty-eight days after the notice giving details of changes has been posted is deemed to have contracted with the Company upon the terms and rules. The Company does not accept ignorance of any such notice as an excuse for non-compliance.
