8. Information on video recordings / joint controllership according to Art 26 GDPR.
Video surveillance, especially at service stations (but also at Eni's headquarters and warehouses) takes place using electronic and automated media and is managed by means that ensure the security and confidentiality of the data. Image recordings are permitted under Section 12 of the Data Protection Act if (i) they are necessary in the vital interest of a person, (ii) the data subject has consented to the processing of his or her personal data, (iii) they are permitted by legal provisions or (iv) there are overriding legitimate interests of the data controller (preventive protection of persons or property in publicly accessible places subject to the data controller's domiciliary rights) and proportionality is given.
The legal basis is the legitimate interest, e.g. processing of the recorded footage for the protection of property, the right of domicile or for the purpose of preventing, containing and clarifying conduct relevant under civil, administrative and criminal law. The processing shall take place in accordance with the guarantees provided by the applicable legislation on the protection of personal data and may include any necessary procedures or sets of procedures. These include the transfer of data to the following categories of recipients: (i) other Eni subsidiaries or service station operators; (ii) insurance companies and law firms; (iii) competent police, judicial and/or administrative authorities. The data will be processed by authorized personnel of the Responsible Parties and by data processors for the maintenance of surveillance and video surveillance systems.
Records are as a rule retained only for the maximum period of 72 hours, after which they are permanently deleted if they are no longer needed for the purpose for which they were obtained and there are no other retention obligations provided for by law. In particular, if there is a corresponding request from judicial authorities or a delegated body in connection with ongoing investigations, the retention period may be longer.
The provision of personal data collected by video surveillance systems is necessary for the aforementioned purposes and occurs automatically when the data subject enters the area of the cameras belonging to the video surveillance system. Please note in this regard the video surveillance pictograms on site, on which the (joint) controllers are suitably identified.
For any video recordings in the store area of service stations, the respective service station operator is the sole controller as defined by the GDPR; only if the video recordings are also made for purposes related to the protection of Eni (video surveillance of the petrol pumps, the car wash, etc.), the service station operator and Eni are joint controllers within the meaning of Art 26 GDPR.
Moreover, the essential content of the agreement concluded between the Service Station Operator and Eni as joint controllers is as follows:
− The service station operator shall ensure that access to image recordings and subsequent modification by unauthorized persons is excluded and shall log every processing operation and delete recorded personal data if they are no longer required for the purpose for which they were collected and no other legal retention obligation exists (retention for longer than 72 hours must be proportionate and must be logged and justified separately) and appropriately mark the image recordings.
− Eni warrants that the cameras and equipment provided are state of the art.
− The central point of contact for the exercise of data subject rights (see paragraph 9.), in particular the right to information, is Eni.
