CCTV On Street House

Yes,no problem putting up a camera that records the street

Kids know the law can't do jack, camera or no camera. Likely they'll simply arrive at night and cover their faces with hoodies.

If there is a problem with recording public areas then nearly every smart door bell in the country is non compliant.

It only becomes a problem if someone complains about their data been recorded and reports you.

The data commissioner will make you take it down, no ifs and buts about it.

Its not.I have complained to the Data Protection Office about a privately owned CCTV installed on a public lighting lampost pointing at the street but supposedly protecting a cul de sac entrance.I was told DPO had no problem with it but contact the local council if I was concerned(council is responsible for street lighting-told no problem by them)ESB Networks did not respond.The council did not seem interested in the fact that public property was being used/damaged by a private operation-maybe too much effort,paperwork,reports.....................tea getting cold.................................................

Covering the public footpath is what complicates it.

In theory any passer by can make a data subject access request for copies of them passing by and the OP is obliged to provide.

Very strange. DPC does seem to be reluctant to act on prevention.

I wonder if you requested a copy of your images from the data controller, and then reported them to the DPC when they fail to comply, would they act?

There is no notice.So camera there is an accident.It climbed up the lampost of its own accord.I see a lot of cameras with no notices around the country.

The usual -I'm not guilty so no worries.
