Our Legal Basis for Processing Your Personal Information We must have a legal basis to process your personal information. In most cases the legal basis will be one of the following:

a) to meet our legitimate interests, for example to protect our assets, facilities and resources; to raise awareness of amenities, rewards and benefits and to understand how you use our services and our buildings and to enable us to derive knowledge from that which in turn enables us to develop new services and further tailor our buildings to appeal to a wide variety of persons; OR

Visitors to 30 St Mary Axe (or our other properties) – Information We May Collect About You We operate CCTV at our buildings for the purposes of public safety, crime prevention and prosecution, insurance and property management. We adhere to the ICO’s code of practice for the use of CCTV.

We do not need to ask individuals’ permission to use CCTV but we make it clear where individuals are being recorded. Security cameras are clearly visible and accompanied by prominent signs.

We do not use facial recognition technology or collect biometric data in any other form.

Any enquiries about the CCTV system should be directed to info@30stmaryaxe.com.

Where we own a building, or we provide property management services for a building owner we collect data on accidents and in the case of specific access requirements, in order to comply with health and safety legislation.

Our services, products and offerings are not aimed at children under the age of 13 but children’s personal data is processed when they enter areas where CCTV is used.

We are committed to protecting the privacy needs of children and our CCTV signage informs parents, guardians and anyone who enters our premises about JSREs use of CCTV.

We may also need to ask you for information relating to any access requirements that you have to ensure that we can meet your needs and ensure your safety on our premises.

We may use information gathered from our access control system to count the volumes and movement of customers using our buildings. Although this is not analysed or used to identify the movements of individuals, it may be possible to identify individuals from this data.

We comply with the requirements of the UK Data Protection Act 2018, UK GDPR and applicable legislation.
