arfur mo Posted November 30, 2010 Posted November 30, 2010 My understanding of DPA, private dwellings have no need to display signs, but a house used as an office for buisness would ned thm, and then they are only allowed to view 50% of the footpath. that must be fun on a road with just a curb 'your' side :0. Arfur I'd agree look like cheap ir to me, but why the sunshield? Decoy Arfur If you think education is difficult, try being stupid!!!!

PeterJames Posted November 30, 2010 Posted November 30, 2010 I was under the impression that pointing CCTV cameras and recording on public land was not on? Apparently not then. Far too many myths about CCTV which is a surprise as the COP is free to download, and its fairly down to common sense cameras should not be able to see stuff that you wouldn't normally be able to see, i.e. through your neighbors teenage daughters bedroom window.

Installer's panel is just inside the entrance gate. I wonder how much silicon he used fixing those domes to the stone wall could be suggested he did not us an expensive laser level for those two adjacent domes thats for sure . would it have been ta hard to get them the same height?

PeterJames Posted November 30, 2010 Posted November 30, 2010 I'D also agree that houses are exempt You are correct Q: My neighbour has installed a CCTV camera and it is pointing towards my house/garden. Is this a breach of the Data Protection Act?If your neighbour’s camera is installed on their residential property and being used for their own personal domestic use, they are unlikely to be breaching the Data Protection Act. This is because the use of CCTV cameras for domestic security purposes is exempt from the data protection principles. This applies when a person uses CCTV to protect their home from burglary, even if the camera overlooks the street or other areas near their home. If your neighbour is using CCTV for business purposes they will need to comply with the Act. If you are concerned about the use of domestic CCTV it may be worth contacting your local police. For more information Assuming that the building is not a business
mma Posted November 30, 2010 Posted November 30, 2010 One of the cameras looks like license plate camera to me. Is it looking at a gate? (1st pic)
james.wilson Posted December 1, 2010 Posted December 1, 2010 looking again, it seems there are 2 lens type apatures in that housing. Id say it must be a camera as it has a sunshield, so my money is either on some sort of twin camera setup, or camera and IR emitter. securitywarehouse Security Supplies from Security Warehouse Trade Members please contact us for your TSI vetted trade discount.
