Discuss CCTV regulations recording other premises in the Security Alarms, Door Entry and CCTV (Public) area at ElectriciansForums.net

My thought would be - ignore it. Seriously what will they record? There are many strange and sad folks in the world, best just let them be.
You could maybe put up your own CCTV or even just the signs, but I'd only go to that trouble if you felt they would help discourage burglary etc.

As an update. They have moved out. I would not consider myself or my family bad neighbours. They just seem to take a dislike to us. But they have moved on now so all fine now. apparently they was causing problems for other neighbours as well in the street, so think it has worked out for the best for all parties involved.
 
I have CCTV here and it points at my house and surrounding area

Two cameras are PTZ and partol round my garden / front door but DO point at my neighbours house at their request
Every 90 seconds the partol goes back to the start.

I have had the police here asking about it (something happend in the kids park opposite) but the CCTV deliberately does NOT cover the park.
The officer actually asked if I covered the park (I told him it would be wrong and just creepy)

Screen shot of coverage attached
The line is a 'line crossing' thing from the software (it does not record the blue line), this emails me when someone crosses the line from outside to inside.

If the camera is on public property then there is nothing you can do.

What does your house do that you are worried about it being filmed?
 
A EU ruling means domestic CCTV is no longer excluded if the camera records beyond the boundary of the property (Section 36 exception). The system also needs to be recorded with ICO and comply with DPA (Ryneš v CJEU).
 

Not what it says in the link below;
Last bullet point;
  • You don’t need to register with the ICO or pay a fee (this is a change from the previous law). However, you must maintain records of how and why you are capturing these images, and for how long you are keeping them. You may need to make these records available to the ICO on request.
 
Hi guys,
Just wondering if I can pick the brains of a few CCTV installers.
We are concerned about a neighbour using CCTV from their house to watch us. They live opposite us and have the camera pointed from a window looking out across the road and onto our property. I believe this is not the use for CCTV as it is for recording the users property and should not face onto a public highway and onto other people premises. Is there any regulations I can quote to back up my argument, or is it just invasion of privacy?
Thanks for any help on the matter, don't do any CCTV and just want to be a bit clued up on the situation before I talk to the neighbour.
Cheers
A good place to visit for this information is National Security inspectorate NSI they have a BS cctv code of practice you could download, also data protection.

You can also get some valued advice by emailing support at the CCTV Camera Centre they are very helpful and have lots of advice to give
