Neighbors working together can improve community safety and help solve local crimes.

Neighborhood groups share safety tips and, when appropriate, camera clips of suspicious activity. Focus on behavior and facts, and report concerns to police.

Pin Tip

Avoid posting identifying details of people not involved in a crime.

Stay Within the Law

Use cameras to protect your own property, never to record places where people expect privacy such as bathrooms or bedrooms of others. Recording laws vary, and audio recording carries extra rules. When in doubt, speak with an attorney before installing or using any surveillance system.

Professional Help

For investigations, licensed professionals know how to gather evidence lawfully. Ohio Security & Investigations, a licensed Ohio agency, can be reached at (888) 341-6960 for confidential consultations.

Quick Reminder

Review who has access to your camera app and recordings at least a few times a year.
