Why we process your information
We may record CCTV images of people entering, approaching, or passing our buildings to:

- act as a deterrent to offenders
- allow the collection of evidence to help find and convict offenders

There will be clear signs outside the relevant buildings to advise you that CCTV is in operation.

Your information may be shared with:

Keeping your personal information
