We seem to be concentrating on consent? - in the examples of taking photos
in public places part of the difficulty is giving the fair processing
information to the person(s) being photographed - what you intend to do with
the image and what it shows will determine whether you need consent to use
it or whether another condition might apply (common courtesy might dictate
that you get consent regardless).
In the graduation ceremony scenario, if the purpose is to allow people who
cannot attend the ceremony to watch it, would it be considered "necessary in
the legitimate interests of the data controller" to broadcast the event or
could the processing be unwarranted due to prejudice to the rights and
freedoms etc...? Would a well worded and placed notice in the invitation
that the event is to be recorded or broadcast, along with signs at the
location of the event on the day, cover fair processing?
If the consensus is that consent is required, is it enough to have a well
placed notice in invites etc. that attendance signifies consent? - would
such consent always be freely given, or is the importance of the event in
some people's lives (as one contributor suggests) such that the consent is
given under duress?
