PHOTOGRAPHY AND FILMING POLICY
Photography and filming takes place at British Art Fair. It is common practice at events as it helps us to inspire future visitors and demonstrates that our fairs are open to everyone. It also provides a means of recording the evolution of the fair over time.
Video and photography usage
Images and video footage captured at British Art Fair may be published on the company’s promotional channels, including websites, social media feeds, printed collateral and advertising. Images may be shared with trusted third parties such as media publications, galleries, partners, and sponsors for the purposes of promotion.
Always positive
The images that we select for publication or sharing will positively reflect our visitor’s attendance at British Art Fair, and usage will always come from the perspective of education and celebration.
Notifying customers
All events include signage at the entrance which notifies visitors that photography or filming will be taking place and directing visitors to this Photography and Filming Policy for further information.
Right to Object
Importantly, under General Data Protection Regulations (GDPR), individuals have the right to object to their images being processed. Due to British Art Fair taking place in a public setting, it is not always possible for individuals to opt in or out of being photographed or filmed at an event. Where someone does object then British Art Fair will make all reasonable attempts to avoid photographing that individual, and all identified images will be deleted on request at the earliest possible opportunity, this is unless there appears to be a reason why the image should be retained under data protection or other laws or duties.
If you have any objections for the processing of images captured by British Art Fair photographers, please email office@britishartfair.co.uk so we can formally record the objection before deleting the relevant images.
