your visit.
At the end of each working week, the visitor forms are securely destroyed.
If your visit is planned, we will send your name and visit information to
reception prior to your visit so they are expecting you.
Purpose and legal basis for processing
It is important GBG capture the details of visitors to our offices for various
reasons, including but not limited to health and safety, fire safety, building
security, and safety of our team members. To process visitor information, we
rely on Article 6(1)(f) of the GDPR, which allows for processing on the basis of
legitimate interests, subject to a balancing test to ensure our interests are
not overridden by yours.
Digital sign-in system
If you visit our London office, you will be asked to use our digital sign-in
system. We will require your full name, the company you are coming from, and
date of visit. Visitor data is kept for a maximum of 6 months.
Purpose and legal basis for processing
We use this system to make signing in visitors more efficient and as a way of
recording any invoice data necessary to handle our payments to suppliers related
to use of our facilities. We rely on legitimate interests as the lawful basis
for processing such data under Article 6(1)(f) of the GDPR, subject to a
balancing test to ensure our interests are not overridden by yours.
Wi-Fi
In order to access our on-site guest Wi-Fi, you will need to be on the list of
authorised users to access the network. When connecting to the GBG GUEST WI-FI
network, you will be asked to enter in the email address of a GBG nominee, who
will authorise your request for internet access. Once the GBG nominee has
granted you permission, you will have access to the network. We monitor access
to our internet, and log traffic information such as the IP address, sites
visited, times and dates, log on times and log off times. This data is held for
12 months.
Our purpose for processing this information is to provide you with access to the
internet while visiting our office and ensuring it is accessed in accordance
with our policies. We are able to process this data on the basis of our
legitimate interests in accordance with Article 6(1)(f) of the GDPR, subject to
a balancing test to ensure our interests are not overridden by yours.
Purpose and legal basis for processing
The purpose for processing this information is to provide you with access to the
internet while visiting our office. We are able to process this data on the
basis of our legitimate interests in accordance with Article 6(1)(f) of the
GDPR, subject to a balancing test to ensure our interests are not overridden by
yours.
CCTV
Closed-circuit television (CCTV) operates both inside and outside our Chester,
Kuala Lumpur, London, Melbourne, Turkey, and Worcester offices.
Generally, recordings will be retained for up to 30 calendar days, after which
they will be deleted. Imagery required for investigative or evidential purposes
may be retained beyond 30 days and is securely disposed of upon
completion/conclusion of the purpose for which it was retained. Our Chester and
Kuala Lumpur offices must retain the images for 90 days in order to comply with
PCI-DSS requirements.
Recordings are retained in a secure environment and are only accessible by
authorised personnel who have a legitimate reason to do so.
Any CCTV used in our Edinburgh, Liverpool or New York offices is not operated by
us, so we are not the data controller. It will be under the control of the
relevant building landlord.
Purpose and legal basis for processing
GBG uses CCTV imagery for the purposes of maintaining the safety and security of
our building and team members, and for investigative purposes as evidence to
support the effective management of any incidents. We rely on legitimate
interests as the lawful basis for processing such data under Article 6(1)(f) of
the GDPR, subject to a balancing test to ensure our interests are not overridden
by yours.
