1. Video Camera Monitoring and Recording Standard Al Arboleda Associate CIO for Information Security

2. Recommendation To ensure the protection of individual privacy rights in accordance with the university’s core values and state and federal laws, the working group recommends that this standard be adopted to formalize procedures for the installation of surveillance equipment and the handling, viewing, retention, dissemination, and destruction of surveillance records. The purpose of this standard is to regulate the use of camera systems used to observe and record public areas in the interest of safety and security

3. Background This standard will apply to all personnel, departments, and auxiliary organizations in the use of security cameras and their video monitoring and recording systems unless a memorandum of understanding (MOU) has been established. The campus standard will be the default. Security cameras may be installed in situations and places where the security and safety of persons and property owned or leased by Cal Poly Pomona would be enhanced. Cameras will be limited to uses that do not violate the reasonable expectation of privacy as defined by law. Where appropriate, the cameras may be placed campus-wide, inside and outside buildings.

4. Three Main Categories Property Protection: Where the main intent is to capture video and store it on a remote device so that if property is reported stolen or damaged, the video may show the perpetrator. Examples: an unstaffed computer lab, an unstaffed science lab, or a parking lot. Personal Safety: Where the main intent is to capture video and store it on a remote device so that if a person is assaulted, the video may show the perpetrator. Examples: a public walkway, or a parking lot. Monitor: Where the main intent is to have the live video stream in one area monitored by a staff member in close proximity. In this case video may or may not be recorded. Example: a computer lab with multiple rooms and only one staff member.
