Ayon sa National Privacy Commission, responsibilidad ng mga business na may CCTV na magkaron ng policies sa operation ng CCTV systems.

Kasama d’yan ang procedure para sa requests for access to CCTV footage, whether for viewing or obtaining a recording or copy.

Ang mga nahagip ng CCTV, may karapatang mag-request ng access dito.

At kung ang request ay para mahuli ang posibleng krimen, ayon sa NPC ay pwede rin ito:

“Where images of persons other than the requesting data subject appear on the CCTV footage, such as a specific person sought to be identified as part of the request for identification of malefactors for the protection of lawful rights and interests, establishing legal claims, investigation, or law enforcement purposes, Section 12 (f) or 13 (f) of the DPA may apply as the basis for the disclosure.”

Pwedeng tignan ang video sa secured na lugar, at humingi ng kopy, subject to an administrative fee.

Ang request for viewing- dapat i-comply within 5 working days. At ang request for copy naman – within 15 working days dapat aksyunan.

Hindi dapat hadlang ang Data Privacy Act para makakuha ng impormasyon sa posibleng krimen at kaso. Pwedeng i-request ito!
