Privacy Notice for video monitoring in accordance with Arts. 13 and 14 GDPR



1. Controller

The controller for personal data processing is:

The landlord named in the rental agreement
Im Zollhafen 24/Kranhaus Süd
50678 Cologne
Germany
Tel.: +49 221 299230
Fax: +49 221 29923 200
E-mail: mail@peachproperty.com


2. Legal basis and purpose of the data processing

This Notice applies wherever we use a video monitoring system at a rental property:

The areas monitored by video can be recognised from the video monitoring signs. These are usually blue, with a picture of a surveillance camera in the upper left corner. The sign also contains the essential information about video monitoring, such as the controller for the video monitoring in question, the Data Protection Officers’ contact details and the legal basis for the data processing. You can also click on a link or scan a QR code to access a detailed privacy policy.

The legal basis for the video monitoring is Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR, as video monitoring is in the legitimate interest of both the landlord or owner of the property and of the tenants. Video monitoring serves both to protect property rights and deter vandalism, drug dealing and other crimes, and also to secure evidence where necessary. Prevention and investigation of criminal offences and vandalism, and thus the aim of maintaining security and cleanliness, are of particular benefit to the building community and the tenants.


3. Data recipients

As a general principle, the footage does not leave our systems and is only forwarded where necessary for the investigation of criminal offences or the establishment of claims (e.g. compensation). Recipients are, in particular, the police and the public prosecutor’s office, as well as lawyers and courts.


4. Storage period

Video footage is stored for up to 72 hours and then deleted unless it is needed as evidence.


5. Your Rights

You have the following rights with respect to us:

  • Right of access: You have the right at any time, within the scope of the statutory provisions, to obtain access free of charge to your data being processed by us, the purposes of the processing, the storage period or the criteria used to determine the storage period and the recipients of the data. You are also entitled to receive a copy of your data
  • Right to rectification, erasure, and restriction of processing: If the data we are processing concerning you are incorrect or incomplete, or if the processing is unlawful, you may obtain from us the rectification, completion or restriction of processing of your data or the erasure of the data to the extent permitted by law.
  • Right to data portability: If you have provided your data to us based on your consent or in connection with an existing contractual relationship with us, we will make those data available to you at your request in a commonly used format or, provided it is technically possible, transmit the data to a third party that you specify.
  • Rights to object: Where we process your data based on a legitimate interest, you may object to this processing on grounds relating to your particular situation. To object, it is sufficient to send a message to the Data Protection Officer.
  • Right to lodge a complaint: Please address any questions, suggestions or criticism to our Data Protection Officer. You may also lodge a complaint with the competent state data protection authority.


6. Obligation to provide data

You are not obliged to provide data to us in connection with video monitoring. It is not possible, however, to enter the monitored areas without being recorded.


7. Automated decision-making

We do not use any automated decision-making processes or profiling processes (automated analysis of your personal circumstances)..
