The U.K. Information Commissioner's Office published guidelines on the use of video surveillance systems to collect and process personal data. The recommendations focus on best practices for data activities related to "emerging capabilities that can assist human decision making, such as the use of Facial Recognition Technology and machine learning algorithms." The ICO specifically urges law enforcement to consider the guidelines if their video surveillance uses fall under the scope of the UK General Data Protection Regulation.
