FAQs

Q. Why do you need my personal details on the consent form and what happens to them?

A. All volunteers are required to complete a consent form stating that their image has been recorded legally with their permission. All personal information supplied is stored securely in accordance with The Data Protection Act 2018. Your personal information will not appear on the video identification parade, only your head and shoulder moving image will be visible.

Q. I am interested in hosting a mobile recording session but I am not sure about room suitability.

A. As long as the room has four walls, a solid ceiling and electrical sockets we will probably be able to set-up our mobile recording equipment. The room dimensions need to be at least 4m by 4m with a ceiling height of at least 2.5m. The recording equipment is quite bulky but not excessive so access needs to be considered along with access for the volunteers attending to comply with Health & Safety Regulations.
A member of the dedicated database team will arrange a visit to meet with you at your location and conduct a risk assessment. A room check for suitability will also be conducted at this stage prior to confirming a mobile recording session.
