Know your rights

First things first, before you even think about installing ​CCTV in your home, you need ​to know your rights.

For example, you can’t point your cameras at your neighbor’s property or record audio without their consent. Always do your research and make sure you’re following the law.

Keep​ it ⁣discreet

When it comes to home surveillance, ​discretion is‍ key. You don’t want to ⁣be that nosy neighbor who’s constantly pointing cameras at everyone who ‌walks by. Keep your cameras hidden where possible and avoid invading other people’s privacy. Remember, just because you can see‍ something doesn’t mean you should be‌ recording it.

Stay updated

And if⁤ in doubt, always⁤ consult a legal professional to ensure you’re on the ‍right side of the law.

Conclusion
