Additional purposes for camera use:

Utilization of Cameras to Automate Processes and Quality-assured Data Collection for Inbound and Outbound Deliveries in Warehouse Operations

Cameras are employed to automatically scan labels for outbound shipments, photograph outgoing load carriers, and count the unloading of empty goods at inbound deliveries within warehouse environments. Individuals in the camera's field of view may be recorded. Personal data is then de-identified to ensure no individuals appear in the images.

Specifically, the following activities are conducted:

Quality assurance and streamlining outbound deliveries - ensuring that the right load carriers are loaded on the right lorry, tracking missing goods and ensuring packing quality
Quality assurance and streamlining inbound deliveries - detecting discrepancies (loss) of empty load carriers
Optimizing operational procedures for inbound and outbound delivery processes
Generate invoice basis
Verify accurate invoicing.

We do not use your personal data to measure your and your group's performance.
