Purpose and Legal Basis of Video Surveillance

Video surveillance is conducted to exercise property rights. It also serves to prevent criminal activities and to assert, exercise, or defend legal claims.

The legal basis for video surveillance is Article 6(1)(f) of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), with our legitimate interests arising from the aforementioned purposes.

If special categories of personal data are processed, this is done based on Article 9(2)(f) GDPR.

Recipients / Data Sharing

Data may be shared with service providers contracted by us who perform surveillance tasks for our company.

In cases of suspected criminal offenses, we may also share the data with attorneys, insurance companies, and law enforcement authorities.

Otherwise, data will only be disclosed if there is a legal basis for doing so. This may particularly be the case if the police or other security authorities act within the scope of hazard prevention and request access to video surveillance data.

Data Processing Outside the European Union

No personal data is processed outside the European Union in the context of video surveillance.

We have appointed a Data Protection Officer.
