Electronic surveillance
Surveillance cameras are installed both outdoors and in the corridors of Dalskóli. The Cultural Center, swimming pool, and Fram gymnasium are connected to Dalskóli. Because of this, there is indoor access between the facilities and a potential risk of unwanted guests and incidents that might need investigating. Such surveillance is always in place for reasons of safety and property protection. The Data Protection Authority provided new Rules on Digital Surveillance (No. 50/2023). The main changes introduced by these regulations were that the retention time for footage was reduced from 90 days to 30 days.
