Video surveillance
All Communal Areas in the Hotel are equipped with video surveillance systems to ensure the safety of people and property. The cameras are strategically placed to monitor every access point to the Hotel.
Signs containing basic information on the subject are placed at each entrance to the property in compliance with regulations.
The images captured by the cameras are stored for 15 days. They can be accessed by authorised Hotel staff, remote surveillance personnel, and law enforcement officers in the event of an incident.
Video surveillance involves processing personal data, and its primary objective is to ensure the safety of people and property within the Premises.
As such, it is based on the legal grounds of legitimate interest as stipulated under Article 6.1.f of the General Data Protection Regulation.
The cameras are positioned so that the processing extends to all Visitors of the Hotel.
In the event of an incident relating to the security of people and property, the video surveillance images may be removed from the system. They will then be stored on another medium for the time needed to resolve the procedures relating to the incident. They will be accessible only to persons authorised to do so.
You may access your data or request that it be deleted. You also have the right to object, rectify and limit the processing of your data (see https://www.cnil.fr/fr for more information on your rights).
