EDPB Guidelines 3/2019 on Processing of Personal Data through Video Devices 8: 8 Storage: a few days, deleted automatically; beyond 72 hours needs stronger justification

Footage may not be kept longer than the purpose needs, subject to any national storage periods. Since damage is usually noticed within a day or two, footage should in most cases be erased after a few days, ideally automatically, and the longer the period, especially beyond 72 hours, the more justification is needed. Where the controller stores footage, storage must be shown to be necessary and the period must be clearly defined for each purpose; retaining specific footage longer to pursue an identified incident remains possible.
