These images are used internally and externally, online (including on social media) and in print by us and may also be shared with local/national press and third parties such as our business and community links.

We will ensure that photography or filming only takes place under the appropriate supervision. Images that we believe might cause embarrassment or distress will not be used nor will images be associated with sensitive materials or subject matters.

Biometric Permission Form

We want to use information about your child as part of an automated recognition system for our catering system. The information from your child that we wish to use is referred to as 'biometric information' (see next paragraph). Under the Protection of Freedoms Act 2012 (sections 26 to 28), we are required to notify you and obtain written consent of at least one parent to use this information.

Biometric Information and How it is Used

Biometric information is information about a person's characteristics that can be used to identify them. We would like to use information from your child's biometric fingerprint for the purpose of providing your child with our canteen facilities.

The information is used as part of an automated biometric recognition system. This system takes measurements of your child's finger and converts these into a template to be stored on our system. An image of your child's finger is not stored. The template (i.e. measurements taken from your fingerprint) is what will be used to grant access to the canteen service.

You should note that the law places specific requirements on schools when using such personal information, for example:

the school cannot use the information for any purpose other than those for which it was originally obtained and make known to the parent(s) (i.e. as stated above)
the school must ensure that the information is stored securely
the school must tell you what it intends to do with the information
unless the law allows it, the school cannot disclose personal information to another person/body

Providing your Consent/Objecting

As stated above, in order to be able to use your child’s biometric information, the written consent of at least one parent is required. However, consent given by one parent will be overridden if the other parent objects in writing.

You can object to the processing of your child’s biometric information at a later stage or withdraw consent you have previously given. This means that if you give consent but later change your mind, you can withdraw this consent. Please note, any consent, withdrawal of consent or objection from a parent must be in writing.

Even if you have consented, your child can object or refuse at any time to their biometric information being taken/used. The objection does not need to be in writing. We would appreciate it if you could discuss this with your child and explain to them that they can object to this if they wish.

If you give consent to the processing of your child's biometric information, please indicate this below. Please note that when your child leaves the school, or if for some reason he/she ceases to use the biometric system, his/her biometric data will be securely deleted.

Please note that without this consent, your child will be unable to use their fingerprint in the canteen.

Consent Form for use of Biometric Information in School

Having read the guidance provided to me by Tanbridge House School, I give consent for information from the biometric fingerprint of my child being taken and used by Tanbridge House School for use a part of an automated biometric recognition system for canteen services.
In signing this form, I am authorising the school to use my child's biometric information for this purpose until he/she either leaves the school or ceases to use the system.
I understand that I can withdraw my consent at any time via email to dpo@ths.uk.net
