The retention of drone footage, where it includes personal data, is governed by the General Data Protection Regulation (EU) 2016/679.

The Data Protection Commission has published helpful guidance on drone use which can be found at the following web address: www.dataprotection.ie/en/dpc-guidance/guidance-on-the-use-of-drones
