Video surveillance in the trendy Cafe
A certain irony is without the information from a manufacturer of surveillance cameras is not so: "The restaurant is flourishing Lorenzini in Regensburg. An important management and controlling instrument for the operator is a video installation. "
Because the cameras (photo by manufacturer Dallmaier) do not look so chic, you have it easy with a wood-imitation dressed. "A vandal-resistant dome camera and two other ultra-compact mini-dome, called Picodome, provide the necessary overview, especially on POS and bar area and in the adjacent rooms.
And that is even recorded, "With the help of videos, we can analyze, are present on which days and times at which many more guests and schedule staff accordingly," managing director Roberto Lorenzini Pecis says in the message.
reached the meantime, our observations of the State Office for Data Protection to the Regensburg case
"1 A video surveillance, can be identified when the person is in the guest room of a restaurant is not usually allowed. According to § 6b Paragraph 1 of the Federal data protection law in the privacy-legal assessment of a video surveillance of the legitimate interests of the landlord on the one hand and the legitimate interests of the guests on the other side to be weighed against each other. In the guest room of a restaurant usually outweigh the conflicting interests of the privileged guests. They expect that their behavior is observed in a restaurant or with a video camera or recorded. In addition, a continuous video monitoring to the employees of the restaurant would be a burden. Only when special circumstances exist, such as in the checkout area or in the catering business, can be operated in guest rooms, a video surveillance be.

We then examine the basis of the above-mentioned legal scale, check the video surveillance is legal. In addition, a legal action is possible.

The above article makes clear that the Existence of data protection and privacy self-employed by manufacturers of video cameras has not arrived yet.
It should anyone who deals with surveillance cameras actually know what the law allows and what not.
This is not just irony, which requires the manufacturer Dallmeier, but look closely "stupidity" which everybody knows, no excuse. be punished
