As a parent, can I post photos of my child and their friends on platforms like Facebook?

Data protection legislation does not apply to the processing of personal data for exclusively personal use. For example, a parent who is not involved in the hobby as a coach or other employee is not subject to a controller’s obligations under data protection legislation if they post a photo of their child on social media. You should nevertheless exercise caution about posting photos and video. On the other hand, many people will find it nice to see photos of your child, and the parents of your child’s friends can appreciate it when someone takes the trouble to upload photos of games or other events that they were not able to attend.
