Our 2023 UK Security Sector Reach
Are You A Fully 'Code of Practice' Compliant Operator of CCTV?
Don't Risk Your CCTV Evidence Being Challenged or Discredited In Court
If you're a Local Authority or police service and operating public space CCTV, you have a lawful duty to comply with the Protection of Freedoms Act (PoFA) 2012.
It's a fact that almost half of the UK's public space CCTV services that are required to be compliant with PoFA 2012, are currently not fully compliant with the legislation.
Did you know, if you provide CCTV evidence to police for prosecutions in Court, a savvy defence counsel could ask to have that evidence disregarded because those that captured the evidence don't comply with the 'Protection of Freedoms Act 2012' ?
If you are yet to become compliant, then we can help.
We are the most highly respected, experienced and knowledgeable CCTV group in the UK. If you are a 'Relevant Authority' we can support you to become a fully compliant operator of CCTV; not only is it a legal requirement, it's the right thing to do!
If you are not a compliant operator of CCTV, you may be just
one headline away from serious reputational damage
