Photography and Filming Policy and Consent Form (Sport and Fitness)

About this document

What it’s for

Photos and videos help promote your club or gym, but they are personal data and can put children and adults at risk if misused. This policy sets out when images can be taken, who can take them, how consent is obtained and recorded, and how images are used and stored.

When to use it

  • For any club, gym or fitness business that takes or publishes images of members or participants
  • When planning events, competitions or livestreams
  • With your safeguarding policy and privacy notice

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.

  1. Purpose
  2. Our approach
  3. Who can take images
  4. Consent and opt-outs
  5. Livestreaming and social media
  6. Storage and retention
  7. Concerns

Also included

  • Part 2 – Photography and filming consent form
  • Part 3 – Image use log

How to complete it

  • Decide who may take images on behalf of the organisation
  • Collect consent using the form in Part 2, and record it
  • Use the image log to track where images are published and when they will be removed

Key points to check

  • Do not publish a child’s full name with their image without specific consent
  • Consent can be withdrawn at any time – make sure you can find and remove images
