Video protection

For the safety and security of its staff, visitors, buildings, assets and information, and for logistical reasons, the General Secretariat of the Council (GSC) operates a video protection system on parts of its premises.  The Policy on Use of Video Systems describes the GSC's video system and the safeguards that the GSC takes to protect the personal data, privacy and other fundamental rights and legitimate interests of individuals viewed by the cameras. For further detailed information on this subject please consult the General Secretariat of the Council's policy on use of video systems.

Please note that the GSC operates its video systems in compliance with Regulation (EC) Nº 45/2001 of the European Parliament and of the Council on the protection of individuals with regard to the processing of personal data by Community institutions and bodies and on the free movement of such data. In so doing, it has due regard for the recommendations set out in the Video Surveillance Guidelines issued by the European Data Protection Supervisor of 17 March 2010.
