Crea­te GDPR-Com­pli­ant Ope­ra­tio­nal Concept

The use of body cams is only per­mit­ted if it is car­ri­ed out on an occa­si­on-rela­ted basis for pre­vious­ly cle­ar­ly defi­ned pur­po­ses. To ensu­re that they are used for the inten­ded pur­po­se, a deploy­ment con­cept must be drawn up. This should be part of a ser­vice or works agree­ment and include the fol­lo­wing points:

  • Pur­po­se of the body cam use (e.g. pro­tec­tion of own per­son­nel against assaults)
  • Whe­re may recor­dings be made? 
  • What to do just befo­re a recor­ding (Trans­pa­ren­cy requi­re­ment)?
  • How is a recor­ding made documented? 
  • How and at what fre­quen­cy is the deploy­ment evaluated? 
  • What tech­ni­cal-orga­niza­tio­nal mea­su­res (TOM) are taken to pro­tect per­so­nal data? 

Note: Details on all lis­ted points can be found in our gui­de.
