Council of Europe publishes guidelines on facial recognition

February 26, 2021By Claire Barraclough

The Council of Europe has published new guidelines on the automatic processing of personal data for facial recognition.

The Council of Europe press release can be found here. The guidelines can be found here.

While quite generic, they should provide companies with some clarity on the interplay between the European data protection regime and the use of facial recognition software.

Please contact Jose Saras if you have any questions, or wish to discuss your data protection compliance.
