There are many occasions when staff, volunteers or carers will want to take photographs of people. The intention of this policy is to set out clear guidelines which will balance the use of photography as a source of pleasure and pride with the need to safeguard clients and stakeholders of Cavalier Centre RDA and protect the rights of the individual.

This policy sets out to ensure that:
Images are only used for the purpose intended
Settings use of images is facilitated
Personal family photography is allowed where possible
Individual rights are respected, and child protection issues considered
Individuals are given the right to opt out.

Definitions
The term ‘images’ refers to photographic prints or slides, digital images, videos or moving images. The images may be distributed via print, DVDs, the internet or other technologies.
Safeguarding clients

The welfare and protection of our clients is paramount, and consideration should always be given to whether the use of photography will place our clients at risk. Images may be used to harm pupils, for example as a preliminary to ‘grooming’, radicalisation or by displaying them inappropriately on the internet, particularly social networking sites.

For this reason, consent is always sought when photographing clients and additional consideration given to photographing vulnerable clients, particularly Looked After Children or those known to be fleeing domestic violence. Consent must be sought from those with parental responsibility (this may include the Local Authority in the case of Looked After Children). Prior to clients joining the Cavalier Centre RDA, the individuals or carers are asked to consent to photographs being taken and images used. Where consent is not given images are not used by Cavalier Centre RDA.

Parental/guardian/carer Consent
As part of the rider application, the individual or parents/carers will be asked to complete a consent form indicating their agreement or objection regarding the use of images. A list of clients for whom consent has been refused will be maintained by Cavalier Centre RDA and every effort will be made by staff/volunteers not to include these pupils in photographs or video footage. The list will be updated regularly.

Storage of Images
Images taken by Staff or Volunteers should be stored on the Cavalier Centre shared drive. These will not be used other than for their original purpose, unless permission is obtained from the individual or carer.
Images should be destroyed or deleted from databases once they are no longer required for the purpose for which they were taken. Images taken for publicity and promotional purposes should be retained for a maximum of two years.

Carer and supporter Photography
In many cases, images taken at the Cavalier Centre are by carers or supporters. Everything possible will be done to ensure that this tradition continues. Carers or supporters are welcome to take images of their own children with the permission of the Centre Manager. However, care must be taken not to interfere with the smooth running of the event, breach commercial copyright laws or compromise health and safety. Parents and supporters will ensure that:
They will respect Cavalier Centre RDA’s decision to prohibit photography of certain pupils or a particular event.

Any images taken are for personal use only.
Images including children or individuals other than their own, must not be sold or put on the internet; if they are, Data Protection legislation may be contravened, and they will be asked to remove them.
They will not use any images of individuals so as to cause offence or harm.
Use of Images for Media
Any images of clients intended for use in the press should receive verbal permission for the specific use in addition to the written consent as detailed above. If the images are not of a client, then an image consent form must be signed.
