These may be athletics fans; amateur freelance photographers; local or national journalists and media organisations; or paying spectators. Typical occasions might be track meeting or other events held at the venues, or at any other time when members of the public are allowed on the premises.\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFrequently this will involve photographs or video of athletes, coaches, officials or other participants at events. This is largely harmless and often to be encouraged: and UKA the HCAFs and the relevant regulator (the Information Commissioner) recognise the value and pleasure to many of recording these occasions. In practical terms, of course, it will often be impossible to prevent and difficult or disproportionate to police. \u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHowever, there are particular considerations relevant to UKA, HCAFs and affiliated clubs and venues across the UK, related to their duties to athletes, staff or the safety and enjoyment of the public. These considerations range from respecting athlete image rights, to providing an environment where they are free from harassment; or in higher legal duties such as safeguarding children and adults at risk, and the prevention of crime. \u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eClubs, stadiums and other venues may be public places but they are also private property. This means that you will be able to impose reasonable requirements, suitably notified, on members of the press or public as a condition of entry to your venue. However, the images will be owned by the person taking them, unless he or she is acting as an employee or under a specific commission. \u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNeither data protection nor privacy law prevents the taking of photographs or video in public places (including images of people such as athletes, coaches, officials, or members of the public) for private or personal use. Conduct amounting to harassment is a different matter. \u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhere images are taken in public places, unless there is something unusually intrusive in the material, there will be only limited restrictions in how such images may subsequently be used: for example, if it wrongly suggests official endorsement by the athlete. There are also particular protections for children (those under 18) in terms of how their image may be reused and published. In particular where the child and/or their parents were unaware of the photograph or footage being taken. \u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn such cases, the legal issue is likely to fall on the publisher or the photographer – not the club or stadium – but these are nonetheless factors to consider in drawing up and policing a suitable policy. Where venues do have legal responsibility is in their general duty of care to protect participants and members of the public from foreseeable or preventable crime, harassment or safeguarding concerns that may arise from certain activity\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\u0022color: rgb(31, 73, 125);\u0022\u003e\u003cspan style=\u0022font-size: 16px;\u0022\u003ePhotos/Videos at Bracknell Athletics Club\u003c/span\u003e\u003c/span\u003e\u003c/strong\u003e\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eVideoing as a coaching aid Video can be a legitimate coaching aid for coaches. However, if it is to be used make sure that children and their parents/carers have given written consent, and understand that it is part of the coaching programme. Make sure that the films are then stored safely and destroyed when they are no longer required for use. At Bracknell we have in place the following:\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eCoaches to use athlete’s mobile device or ask parents to use their own device if it is required to be stored for future use.\u003c/li\u003e\u003cli\u003eCoaches to ensure that no other athlete is in the video or photo.\u003c/li\u003e\u003cli\u003eAny video/photo that has been taken as a coaching aid is shown to the athlete (and parent if requested) by the coach straight after it is taken and then;\u003c/li\u003e\u003cli\u003eDeleted from the mobile device used in front of the athlete or parent.\u003c/li\u003e\u003c/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSome athletes require video evidence to be used in conjunction with PE exams that they may be taken for GCSE, A Levels etc. Whilst we advise that these video should be taken at events that they are competing in sometimes this can be out of their control, due to illness, injury, covid-19 etc. \u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAt Bracknell Athletics Club the coaches are able to support the athlete with this by offering a one2one with the parent/carer and the athlete at a time that is available and agreed so that the track is not so busy that other child/coach or parents are not seen in the video. This is to maintain safeguarding of everyone.\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\u0022color: rgb(31, 73, 125);\u0022\u003e\u003cspan style=\u0022font-size: 16px;\u0022\u003eOfficial Photographer/Media accreditation\u003c/span\u003e\u003c/span\u003e\u003c/strong\u003e\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e(Paul Ridley) \u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\u0022color: rgb(31, 73, 125); font-size: 16px;\u0022\u003eGeneral spectators\u003c/span\u003e\u003c/strong\u003e\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt is rarely going to be proportionate or enforceable – still less desirable – to seek to prevent \u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003emembers of the public using cameras, including camera phones, as part of their spectator experience. However, common-sense requirements about harassment, intrusion, sponsor restrictions, flash photography and so on may be notified to members of the public in a number of ways including clear signage at the stadium or in club buildings, and as part of the terms of conditions of entry (for example on, or when purchasing, a ticket).\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\u0022color: rgb(31, 73, 125); font-size: 16px;\u0022\u003eHarassment and respecting the wishes of participants\u003c/span\u003e\u003c/strong\u003e\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAny course of behaviour that could be construed as harassment of an individual is potentially a criminal matter. Both the proper stewardship of the venue and the terms and conditions of entry should be set up to ensure you are able to take action swiftly whether the actions are reported, visible or reasonably suspected. \u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe legal definition of harassment is behaviour which causes alarm or distress. This may vary according to the particular circumstances or sensitivities of the individual, and the threshold may not always be obvious. Hence your policies, signage and conditions of entry \u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eshould be worded widely and clearly enough to enable a safety-first approach to be taken. This should also enable race officials and stewards to intervene and make courteous but forceful requests on behalf of athletes rather than let them have to take action, or give reasons, themselves.\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e A relatively relaxed system of allowing photography of adult athletes on an \u0022approach and ask\u0022 may be fine for some venues and athletes, but the backstop should be such that athletes are not placed in any embarrassing position or suffer undue disruption. \u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\u0022color: rgb(31, 73, 125); font-size: 16px;\u0022\u003eSafeguarding\u003c/span\u003e\u003c/strong\u003e\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eParticular care must be given to participants under 18, who are legally children, and certain athletes who may fall into the category of Adults at Risk. These groups are at additional risk. Any policy that may have the effect (whether intended or otherwise) of providing access to, and permitting the photography of, these groups should be drawn up with the input of your designated welfare or safeguarding team. \u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt will be for each club or venue to consider the practical limitations that can usefully be placed on spectators (especially at events where children are competing), but you may wish to consider specifying in your policy that spectators should not take images of children other than their own child except as part of a group or activity shot. In accordance with the UKA child safeguarding policy, and CPSU guidance, we do not advocate the taking of photographs, video or other images of children without consent. If the child is under 16, consent must be obtained from a parent / carer. If the child is over 16, it’s good practice to inform parents that photographs and/or videos of their child may be used if the child has given consent. \u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEach club or venue will take all steps to ensure these images are used solely for the purposes for which they are intended. No photographs or filming of any sort should be authorised or tolerated in any changing area or other area where athletes will have an expectation of privacy, and this is particularly important where athletes include children or adults at risk. \u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\u0022color: rgb(31, 73, 125); font-size: 16px;\u0022\u003eCCTV\u003c/span\u003e\u003c/strong\u003e \u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe use of CCTV is increasingly prevalent and frequently necessary to monitor crime, terrorism and antisocial behaviour, as well as other public safety considerations. However, this use should be supported where appropriate by clear signage and (where extensive use is made) a published CCTV policy setting out the extent and purpose of this surveillance.
