This British Standard provides technical and operational recommendations for the deployment and use of Body Worn Video (BWV) used for the purposes of recording interactions between the wearer and other parties, or the environments in which the wearer finds themselves. This British Standard is applicable to both BWV users and system owners, as well as suppliers, taking into account how the visual/audio data is captured, viewed, stored and used securely.

NOTE Examples of where BWV might be used include emergency services, night‑time economy (e.g. licenced premises), taxi marshalling, warden schemes, security guarding, parking enforcement and door supervision.
