CCTV and Privacy laws


If you’re thinking of getting a home CCTV system for the outside of your property, you must comply with privacy laws. This means making sure that your cameras aren’t pointed at public space or other people’s houses or gardens. 

It’s a good idea to discuss any CCTV plans with your neighbours first – some people told us that they share a system with their neighbours, which might be one way to cut down on costs.
CCTV is just one line of defence against crime, and works best when combined with other measures, such as door and window locks, keeping trees and foliage cut back, security lights and a burglar alarm.
