Hi. Yes you are allowed ...... But don't put up and signs

what do you mean by dont put up and signs?

 

 

In the uk if you put signs up then your cameras become public space cameras which means you have to register them

 

No signs and there domestic cameras no laws ...... Unless over looking into private space of someone else

so as this car park is public and where i park my car i can lawfully watch it on cctv if i dont have signs up but if i do have signs i have to register my ccctv and can still watch over the car park with no problems

DPA is a mine field ...... I would keep it simple

No signs keeps your system private

 

Put signs up and you system becomes public space.

 

If something happends not related to you with having signs up they can ask for your dvr footage. Only because you have told public cctv is available via placing signs in public......the police can even take your recorder away over something not related to you.

 

No sign ....... police can’t take and public can ask you for footage

It’s up to you if your cctv footage helps others

 

Keep your system private no signs

decided to register my cctv with the ICO that way i've got my back covered

Bad choice

 

 

Why ask if you don’t listen.

 

Make it public and you need to be sure your system is working.

 

And you can’t refuse anyone who needs footage

 

I would not register your system.

 

Also on register it works the opposite ... people can now ask you to remove cameras

Ok so the housing officer woman came round to see where my cctv points and apparently they won’t allow the camera pointing where it does as it’s there land or whatever so I’ve been told I have to move it, don’t suppose anyone knows a way round this

I’m in housing association which is different from council housing and the car park and houses around are owned by them

Housing association are only managers

 

But you still did not answer questions

 

Did you use signs .

 

 

New DPA laws came into effect today which I can guarantee housing association know nothing about.

 

Is your car parked in the car park you have covered
