Surveillance Law

This area covers covert and overt monitoring and the legal limits on recording, intercepting or accessing communications, workplace monitoring, undercover operations, and investigations into alleged voyeurism or unauthorised data extraction such as encrypted device examinations. Solicitors draft surveillance policies and Data Protection Impact Assessments, apply for or challenge authorisations and warrants under the Regulation of Investigatory Powers Act 2000 and the Investigatory Powers Act 2016, advise on compliance with the Data Protection Act 2018 and the Surveillance Camera Code of Practice, represent clients to the Information Commissioner and Investigatory Powers Tribunal, and bring or defend civil claims for misuse of private information or harassment in the civil courts and employment tribunals. Necessity, proportionality and technical capability of surveillance equipment and digital forensics commonly determine how matters progress.
