South Simcoe Police Service Launches Security Camera Registry

(Innisfil/Bradford, ON)  The South Simcoe Police Service has launched a Security Camera Registry to help enhance community safety.
The camera registry provides all residents and businesses the opportunity to inform the South Simcoe Police Service if they have external-facing security cameras that can assist in police investigations. Knowing where cameras are located in our communities can help officers quickly and efficiently recover possible footage and save valuable time in investigations. It also ensures that footage is saved as soon as possible by the public given that retention periods are often short. This pro-active, voluntary program could be crucial to help assist in an investigation, find a missing person, recover property, or even save a life.

The registry does not grant police direct access to your cameras and officers must still seek your permission to view and use footage. Participants in the registry will be asked to include camera locations, direction, video retention times and capability of sharing footage.
