RE: Privacy Concerns

CPD says "This tool will not be used to spy on anyone. Registering cameras means the police department will know where your cameras are located in the event of a crime or a critical incident only. Camera access and settings are entirely controlled by the camera owner."

Through our partnership with Fusus, we strive to increase community security while maintaining personal privacy. As per our policies, your camera registry data is classified as protected non-public data and is only accessible by authorized users of our system.
