10:03 ET<\/span><\/span><\/p>\nA website set up to allow the public to report crime seen via CCTV footage has been forced to make significant changes to the way it operates.<\/p>\n
Internet Eyes offers rewards of up to \u00a31000 for crimes such as shoplifting seen via live CCTV footage streamed to the homes of members.<\/p>\n
The Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO) demanded changes after footage from the service was found on YouTube.<\/p>\n
Images transferred over the internet must now be encrypted.<\/p>\n
The firm must also carry out checks on registered viewers and audit which viewers are watching which clips.<\/p>\n
By July the firm must also ensure that no viewer can access footage from cameras located within a 30 mile radius of the viewer’s location.<\/p>\n
“CCTV footage should not end up on YouTube when it shows someone simply out doing their shopping. A person’s CCTV image is their personal data,” said ICO deputy commissioner David Smith.<\/p>\n
The ICO investigated the firm after a complaint that footage was available on YouTube.<\/p>\n
On 18 May, Internet Eyes agreed to make the changes.<\/p>\n
“We are now satisfied that they have met our requirements. We will continue to keep a close watch on them and do not rule out taking more formal enforcement action if further complaints are received,” Mr Smith added.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/p>\n
