Panomera® Privacy Shield ofDallmeier: Video surveillance in public spaces: data protection solved in a simple and practical way.

In a context where public safety and data protection are becoming increasingly crucial, GSG INTERNATIONAL, the official distributor of Dallmeier in Italy, is pleased to present an innovative solution that addresses data protection needs during video surveillance of public events. Thanks to Dallmeier's advanced technology, data protection can now be implemented easily and quickly, with a simple click of the mouse.

Legal Requirements for Video Surveillance Systems
In Italy, the use of video surveillance is regulated by the GDPR (EU Regulation 2016/679), which sets out the methods for the collection, processing, and storage of personal data, including images recorded via cameras. The installation of a video surveillance system in public spaces must serve specific legitimate purposes, such as public safety protection and the prevention of criminal acts, without compromising citizens' privacy.
According to Italian legislation, particularly the Privacy Code (Legislative Decree 196/2003), cameras must be positioned in a way that does not infringe on people's private sphere, and transparency towards the individuals concerned must be guaranteed. In the case of public demonstrations or events, it is necessary to comply with the guidelines provided by the Italian Data Protection Authority (Garante per la protezione dei dati personali), which require clear information about the presence of cameras and proper management of the collected data.

The Solution: Data Protection with a Click of the Mouse
Traditionally, managing cameras during public events requires manual interventions, such as covering or turning off the cameras—operations that can be slow and difficult to reactivate in emergency situations. However, with Panomera® Privacy Shield, this is simplified. With a simple click of the mouse, the cameras are immediately and securely deactivated, and their deactivation status is clearly visible with a yellow symbol.

The main advantages include:

  • Time-saving: no more manual covering of cameras.
  • Cost reduction: reduced logistical and staffing costs for authorities and police forces.
  • Flexibility: rapid remote reactivation of cameras in case of escalation or security incidents.
  • Transparency: clear visual labeling of the deactivated status of cameras.
In Practice

During a peaceful public event, video surveillance can easily be deactivated with a click using the Panomera® Privacy Shield to meet legal requirements and ensure the protection of personal data. If the situation evolves and requires immediate reactivation, cameras can be reactivated in seconds, allowing for evidence collection and ensuring public safety.

Conclusion: A Small Innovation with a Big Impact

Panomera® Privacy Shield from Dallmeier demonstrates how data protection and security requirements can be harmonized in a simple and effective way. This functionality not only facilitates compliance with Italian legal regulations but also saves valuable resources, making video surveillance systems more efficient and secure.

GSG INTERNATIONAL is proud to offer cutting-edge solutions like Panomera® Privacy Shield in Italy, optimizing the management of public video surveillance while respecting privacy and current regulations in line with European and Italian directives.
