Camera Repair
We have recently decided to not involve ourselves in the new and swiftly groing business sector of selling advanced and yet low cost spy equipment like mini pin hole cams and other hidden video transmission equipment.
The import of Asian cheap models makes use and mis-use of this technolgy available for everybody. These devices are now in our daily life and many of us were 'surveilled ' secretly without our consent and knowledge.
Now the Data Protection Act and similar legislative directions demand from any surveiller who holds video or any other form of data on public persons.... to make these available on demand! - But how can you demand or requst to be shown electronically data held, if you were not made aware of its existence? There has to be clear CCTV Warning Signage, visible for anyone passing through a surveilled/recorded area, also clearly stating a name and contact of the data protection manager or owner/operator of the system. How does one fulfil these requirements with a hidden camera system?
The only legal use would be in case of a repetitive ongoing crime like theft. In this case the installation would naturally be temporary.
Hidden Spy Cameras
We at Ideal CCTV have quite a clear policy regarding requests for installation of hidden cameras also called "Spy Cams".
If you do not have a clear case of crime you need to prevent or reprove, then moral bids us to decline the business request.....Thank you very much for your understanding.
