9. Video Surveillance in the Studio

To protect individuals, property and infrastructure, KC Dance Studio operates video surveillance within its premises.

Video surveillance is used exclusively for:

No sensitive areas (in particular changing rooms or sanitary facilities) are monitored. Cameras are positioned in a manner that ensures proportionality.

Recordings are stored for a maximum of 72 hours and are then automatically deleted unless required for the clarification of a specific incident.

Access to recordings is restricted to authorised persons only. Disclosure occurs solely where legally required or to law enforcement authorities. Video-monitored areas are appropriately signposted.
