IMY has published guidance on live-streaming children's and youth sports, clarifying how GDPR applies when cameras roll on minors, including who bears responsibility when a municipality owns the venue but a club runs the stream. A key 2026 supervisory priority.

IMY published guidance on the streaming of children's and youth sports (barn- och ungdomsidrott), setting out the key factors to consider in order to determine what is permissible under GDPR.

The guidance addresses accountability principles - for example, when a municipality owns a sports hall and a club wishes to install cameras - and is part of IMY's 206 priority focus on children and young people.
