This is clearly indicated on warning signs at the site. These camera images are stored for a maximum of four weeks after filming them, unless an incident has occurred. In that case the relevant images are stored until the incident has been handled.

Registration lists

To make sure that Mainfreight is aware of the number of people (including visitors) present at its business site at any time, we make use of a registration list for visitors. Each visitor must fill in this registration list, stating their name, phone number, car registration number and time of arrival and departure. In the event that any emergency occurs, Mainfreight will be able to check on the basis of these registration lists which visitors are still in the building or on the site. The registration lists are kept for one week.
