What
are
the purposes of
processing personal data in this activity? |
In the United States, United Kingdom, and Singapore, images and audio of students and possibly the instructor are recorded when initiated by the instructor. These recordings are taken in order to assist with the training and improve the skills of the participants. Similar to a CCTV recording but with audio. The recording is then available to the crew for review in order to improve their skills.
However, in China, there are cameras installed inside the simulators; they are not triggered by instructors. Whenever there is any training activities in the simulators, the camera will work automatically, and record the activities inside the simulator. It is different from the recording system provided by simulator manufacturer. These cameras were installed based on the requirement from CAAC. |
What is the legal basis of processing personal data in this activity in the United States, United Kingdom, and Singapore? |
The data subject has given consent to the processing of his or her personal data for one or more specific purposes.
Consent is given by the students (crew) being trained as the recording is initiated by the instructor. Consent can be withdrawn verbally before the recording. |
What is the legal basis of processing personal data in this activity in China? |

data subject (the person to whom the data relates)
required to provide personal information for this
processing activity, and what would be the possible
consequences of failing to do so? |
Provision of personal information
for this processing activity is not required.
In the United States, United Kingdom, and Singapore, the recording of the simulator sessions is optional. The tool has been provided by the simulator manufacturer in order to assist the crew in their training. The instructor teaching the crew can either decide to record the session or not.
However, in China, it is a mandatory requirement from CAAC; the cameras work automatically when there is a training inside the simulators. |
Who are
the recipients of the personal data in this activity? |
In the United States, United Kingdom, and Singapore, the instructor and crew that recorded the session can watch it back in the briefing room following the session but they can protect access to the files with a password chosen by them. When they initiated the recording, it triggered the creation of a password.
In China, it is a separated system from the system provided by the simulator manufacturer. Boeing has direct access to it.
The video recordings will also be shared with the individual’s company (i.e. employer) and with CAAC, as required. |
In what
countries will the personal data be processed? |
The recordings are stored on the local simulator network so they can be accessed only at the location where the simulator is placed.
The personal information will only be stored in the United States, UK, Singapore, China, depending on the location of the simulator in question.
|
How long
will the personal data be retained by this activity? |
In the United States, United Kingdom, and Singapore, recordings are deleted at the end of each day.
In China, the CAAC regulation (CCAR-142) states that the training centers should maintain the recordings for at least 3 months. |
