Household Staff Privacy Notice and Home Camera (Nanny Cam) Policy

About this document

What it’s for

Families who employ staff hold their personal data – identity documents, bank details, payroll, health and references. Many also use home cameras. Being open with staff about what is collected and recorded is fair, builds trust and helps the family meet its data protection responsibilities.

When to use it

  • Given to every new household employee
  • When installing or changing home cameras
  • Reviewed each year

What’s inside

The document is laid out in the sections below. Each one comes with a plain-English guidance note explaining what it does and what to change.

A complete, ready-to-use document with every section written, your details shown in [square brackets], and guidance notes explaining how to complete it.

How to complete it

  • List what you hold and for how long
  • Mark camera locations and whether audio is recorded
  • Ask staff to sign the acknowledgement

Key points to check

  • Never use cameras in bathrooms or in a live-in employee’s private rooms
  • Hidden (covert) recording of staff should be rare, for a specific serious concern, and stopped once resolved – take advice first
