From member names, addresses, phone numbers, and email addresses to company and business information linked to individual members, you’re processing personal data that falls squarely under GDPR. Here’s your complete compliance guide.

Absolutely. Under the GDPR and the Irish Data Protection Act 2018, all co-working spaces in Wexford that collect, store, or process personal data must be fully compliant. This covers everything from booking details and payment information to CCTV footage and staff records. The DPC can impose fines of up to €20 million for non-compliance, and Irish businesses of all sizes are subject to enforcement.

REQUIRED DOCUMENTS
Every Co-Working Space in Ireland needs these documents to demonstrate GDPR compliance.
STEP BY STEP
Provide a comprehensive privacy notice to every new member covering all data you collect — membership details, access logs, WiFi monitoring, CCTV, and event participation.
Position CCTV cameras so they do not capture members' screens or confidential documents, and display signage in all recorded areas.
Implement network security that protects member data without unnecessary surveillance of internet activity — only log what is needed for security.
Set access control data retention to a maximum of 6 months and limit who can view entry and exit logs.
Obtain explicit consent before including member names in any shared directory, Slack channel, or community mailing list.
Put data processing agreements in place with your access control provider, WiFi and network management service, CCTV provider, and booking/membership platform.
Create a separate visitor sign-in process with its own privacy notice, and delete visitor records within 30 days of the visit.
COMMON PITFALLS
Publishing a member directory or community list that includes all members' names and contact details without asking each member for consent.
Positioning CCTV cameras in shared working areas in a way that could capture members' laptop screens or confidential documents.
Logging detailed member WiFi browsing activity beyond what is necessary for network security and troubleshooting.
Not providing visitors and event attendees with a privacy notice when they sign in to the building.
