Loch Rannoch Highland Club Forums

I have been visiting these webcams for quite a while now and do enjoy them. The human eye is drawn to movement and I have just noticed, for the first time ever, the residents of Lochside 7 enjoying their balcony. I think a realignment might be required.

more people invaded whilst o their balcony. I DON'T want to see this. I'm sure, THEY don't want to be seen!!!

Dear WADD003,

We appreciate you bringing this to our attention and will adjust the angle slightly.

Best wishes,

Richard

Thank you. Doesn't affect me in Otter 7

We too love the webcams, which keep us 'in touch' with Rannoch until we can holiday there. However the privacy of Members/Guests is paramount, so it's good to see that Staff are monitoring our Posts on Forums and have reacted to the faux pas quickly. Well done to all!

It must be a very difficult technical problem to move a web cam through 5 degrees. 6 weeks now and more intrusion tonight including people playing in the loch. Perverts/ paedos delight.

3 people there just now. Does management warn the occupants???

Twice today, I have watched people, on the club's webcam, on the "PUBLIC" Loch beach. I have no idea who these people are/were but this club is in serious danger of being cleaned out in the law courts.


Domestic CCTV systems – guidance for people being filmed
Share(Opens Share panel)
Some users of domestic CCTV systems need to comply with data protection laws. This depends on what their cameras can see.

Data protection laws don’t apply if the cameras cover only the user’s own private property, including their garden. Therefore, visitors caught on these cameras don’t have specific data protection rights in relation to the images captured on those cameras.

But what if the cameras capture images of people outside the boundary of the user’s property – for example, in neighbours’ homes or gardens, in shared spaces, or on a public footpath or a street? Then neighbours, passers-by and anyone else caught on camera will have rights under the data protection laws.

Capturing and recording such images is not itself a breach of the data protection laws. But CCTV users must ensure they comply with these laws and respect the data protection rights of people whose images they capture.

This applies to any video surveillance equipment mounted or fixed on a home, and can include cameras fitted into doorbells.

What are my rights?
If you are filmed on someone’s domestic CCTV system, which is capturing images outside the boundary of their home, the data protection laws give you several rights.

In particular, you have the following rights:

To be told that a home CCTV system is being used. The CCTV user must let people know they have CCTV. Signs are the most common way of doing this. They must be clearly visible and legible.
To ask for a copy of the information that is held about you. This is known as making a subject access request. You can ask verbally or in writing for copies of any footage where your image is identifiable. The CCTV user must respond to this request within one month. Bear in mind that if they regularly delete footage they no longer need, they might not hold your images.
To ask the CCTV user to erase any personal data they hold about you.
To ask that the CCTV user does not capture any footage of you in future. However, the nature of CCTV systems may make this very difficult and it might not be possible for the user to do this.

Please can Richard Deak arrange to have signs fitted around the Resort as soon as possible, to tell people about the webcams? You can buy such signs on Amazon, so they could be here by tomorrow! Thank you.

Thank you!!!
