May the municipality film me on the street?

Municipal CCTV is regulated in Dutch Municipalities Act Art. 151c. Not arbitrary — a formal process must have been followed. Conditions: (1) Mayoral decision with reasoning. (2) Specific location + time period designated — not "the whole city forever". (3) Proportionality + subsidiarity — least intrusive means. (4) Clear signs at every camera location ("municipal CCTV"). (5) Limited retention — standard max 4 weeks (some situations up to 7 days). (6) Periodic evaluation. Where can it apply? Place with public-order consideration — busy nightlife areas, violence hotspots, demonstrations. Not: schools, religious buildings, demonstrations with political motivation without compelling reason. Your rights: (a) Access (GDPR Art. 15) — request footage of you in a given period. Municipality can limit reasoning (others' privacy). (b) Objection (Art. 21) if processing particularly affects you. (c) AP complaint. Different types: public space (Municipalities Act), shops (GDPR + owner interest), police (Dutch Police Data Act — stricter). Not under CCTV: the image output may not be automatically linked to ID (facial recognition) without separate legal basis — banned in Schiphol ruling.
