Data Protection Act

The Data Protection Act 1998 was introduced to promote high standards in the handling of personal information and so to protect the individual’s right to privacy.  The Act applies to commercial and public CCTV systems only and is enforceable where a CCTV system obtains, records or stores personal data in the form of video images. 

In the UK all businesses must comply with the Data Protection Act.  i2 Security ensures that the design and operation of any system offered is fully compliant with the Act.
