Information That You Voluntarily Provide
We do not collect personally-identifiable information unless you choose to provide it to us. If you provide us with personally identifiable information, for example by sending an e-mail, filling out a form and submitting it through our website or using the Guest-book, we use that information only to respond to your message and to help us provide you with the information and services that you request, for example automated weather condition and lightning alerts.
External CCTV Cameras Including Dedicated Weather Cameras
Due to new regulations that came into force on 25 May 2018, you are no longer required to register your household CCTV and pay a data protection fee.
Under the Data Protection (Charges and Information) Regulations 2018, there is an exemption for individuals using CCTV to monitor their property, even if they are capturing images beyond the boundaries of their property. The details are available in the guidance on the ICO website.
The Information Commissioner’s Office will therefore remove Chatteris Weathers registration on expiry as you do not need to continue to pay a data protection fee.
