13. Filming and photography
From time to time, we or our authorised service providers may carry out filming or photography in our Shopping Centres for operational, reporting, marketing, promotional and publicity purposes connected with our centres and business activities. Where practicable, signage or other notice may be displayed in the relevant area to inform visitors that filming or photography is taking place.
If you enter an area where filming or photography is taking place, your image, likeness, voice or other personal information may be incidentally or directly captured in audio, visual or audio‑visual recordings or photographs. By entering such an area, you acknowledge that this collection may occur.
In some cases, including promotions, competitions and community or seasonal events such as Santa photography or Christmas parades, filming or photography may intentionally capture images or recordings of individuals as part of the activity. This may include capturing images of children.
Where an individual, including a child, is featured or identifiable as a primary subject in filming or photography, we will generally seek consent from a parent or legal guardian, which may be obtained through specific consents, entry forms, waivers or similar mechanisms. Where individuals, including children, are only incidentally captured in the background of general photography or filming, this will be managed in accordance with the general terms set out above.
We take reasonable steps, where practicable, to reduce the identification of individuals who appear incidentally in background footage or images. We also take reasonable steps to ensure that images, particularly of children, are used appropriately and in accordance with applicable laws and community expectations.
Recordings and photographs taken by us or on our behalf may be used and disclosed, to the extent permitted by law, for the purposes outlined above.
Any personal information collected through filming or photography will be handled in accordance with this Privacy Policy and applicable law.

restrict or prohibit filming or photography;
-
require prior approval for commercial or media use.

Retention periods vary depending on the type of information.
When no longer required, we will take reasonable steps to destroy or de-identify the information.
15. Security of personal information
We take reasonable steps to protect personal information from misuse, loss and unauthorised access, modification or disclosure.
