Stergios Konstantinou<\/strong>, Head of the Law Office \u201cStergios Konstantinou & Associates \u2013 SGK Legal\u201d<\/em>, was interviewed by journalist Stamatis Zararos<\/strong> on One Channel<\/strong>, offering key insights into what every individual, business, or public authority needs to know about the use of video surveillance systems and the legal framework that governs them<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Installing video surveillance systems (in stores, offices, apartment buildings, public spaces, etc.) is not a simple matter:
\u2705 In which cases is it legally permitted?
\u2705 What rights do individuals have?
\u2705 What are the obligations of the data controller?
\u2705 What penalties apply for non-compliance?<\/p>\n

These and other critical questions were addressed in a meaningful conversation on a topic that affects us all.<\/p>\n
