Visitors to our offices

We have security measures in place at our offices, including CCTV and building access controls.

CCTV

There are signs in our office showing that CCTV is in operation. The images captured are securely stored and only accessed on a need to know basis (e.g. to look into an incident).  We use the CCTV images for the legitimate purposes of promoting security and safety of our personnel and members of the public, preventing and detecting crime and establishing, exercising and defending legal claims.  We may disclose CCTV images to law enforcement bodies as requested and permitted by data protection law.

CCTV recordings are typically automatically overwritten after a short period of time (between 21 and 60 days after being recorded) unless an issue is identified that requires investigation (such as a theft).

Visitor records

We require visitors to our offices to sign in at reception and keep a record of visitors for a short period of time.  Our visitor records are securely stored and only accessible on a need to know basis (e.g. to look into an incident).

The Reporting of Injuries, Diseases and Dangerous Occurences Regulations 2013 (‘RIDDOR’) requires us to report certain serious workplace accidents, occupational disaeas and specified dangerous occurrences (near misses). In the event of an accident at a PwC office, we therefore may need to collect additional data about your accident, including any injuries sustained to enable RIDDOR reporting.

Guest WIFI

We monitor traffic on our guest WIFI networks using industry standard intrusion detection systems. This allows us to see limited information about a user’s network behaviours but will include being able to see at least the source and destination addresses the user is connecting from and to. We cannot inspect any encrypted web pages and therefore do not have access to any information (personal or otherwise) that the user might share via these web pages.

Use​ ​of​ ​personal​ data

We use personal data for the following purposes:

  • To communicate with visitors in advance in relation to their attendance and conduct at PwC offices;
  • To fulfill our statutory reporting requirements
