Liquor & Gaming NSW has published a voluntary Code of Practice for Facial Recognition Technology in hotels and clubs. This page explains the practical areas venues should consider.
The Code covers responsible and appropriate use of FRT to identify patrons who have excluded themselves from venues or gaming-machine areas.
| Code area | What it means for venues | How Veriffi is positioned |
|---|---|---|
| Privacy impact + breach planning | Assess privacy risks, update policies and prepare response procedures. | Designed to support privacy-aware deployment planning and data minimisation. |
| Installation and controls | Plan camera placement, maintain documents and keep change logs. | Supports practical camera and system configuration discussions. |
| Signage and notification | Make FRT use visible to patrons where required. | Helps define where FRT is active so signage can match operations. |
| Data storage and access | Protect excluded-patron data, limit access and avoid commercial tracking. | Designed around access controls, authorised users and Australian data handling. |
| Reporting and response | Review system activity, alert outcomes and staff response procedures. | Dashboard, alert history and response-note workflows support operational review. |
