Death by Data Protection?

The Commissioner empathises with businesses e.g. shops, that would like to check the temperature of visitors to their premises, but considers temperature checking visitors (e.g. customers) could be excessive and possibly in breach of data protection law. The Commissioner has concerns about the proportionality of temperature checking visitors, particularly if their use is widespread as this may lead to unfair restrictions, taking into account the limited reliability of temperature checks. When used, organisations should give careful consideration prior to the deployment of equipment which checks the temperature of individuals and should be able to demonstrate why temperature checking visitors is absolutely necessary. www.yourgibraltartv.com/...
