Drone exam · Privacy and data protection

A pilot is allowed to deliver inspection footage to the building owner. Does that automatically justify posting the same raw video on social media as a portfolio example?

Answer

No. Public posting is a different use with a much wider audience. The operator should assess the lawful basis, privacy impact, contractual terms, and whether editing or anonymisation is needed.

Explanation

A controlled delivery and public publication expose people in very different ways. The audience and permanence of online distribution matter.
