FAQs
What certifications should an installer have?
There’s no mandatory certification for CCTV installers in the UK.
However, accreditation by recognised industry bodies such as the National Security Inspectorate (NSI) or the Security Systems and Alarms Inspection Board (SSAIB) demonstrates the CCTV installer’s compliance with key standards like BS EN 62676-4:2015 and their ability to pass rigorous technical and quality assessments.
Can CCTV footage be used as legal evidence?
Yes. High-quality IP CCTV footage can be used in investigations or court cases if captured and stored in line with data protection laws.
Will the system work at night or in low light?
Absolutely. Our cameras are designed for 24/7 performance, with infrared and low-light technology ensuring clear footage even in darkness.
Can I monitor my CCTV system remotely?
Yes. We provide solutions that allow you to securely access live and recorded footage from your smartphone, tablet, or computer.
How long is footage stored?
This depends on your setup and storage capacity, but systems can be configured to meet your needs while staying compliant with UK GDPR.
How long can CCTV footage be kept?
While there's no legal time limit for how long CCTV footage can be kept in the UK, government advice is that it should not be retained after 30 calendar days.
Unless there's a valid reason to keep it for longer, such as an active investigation or legal requirement, footage must be securely deleted when it’s no longer needed.
Do Protive systems reduce false alarms?
Yes. With AI-led analytics, our systems are smarter and more efficient - alerting you to genuine incidents, not just insignificant background noise or movement.
Is CCTV signage required?
Yes, under GDPR regulations and the Data Protection Act 2018, CCTV signage is a legal requirement in the UK. If you’re using CCTV to record images of people, clear, visible signage must be put up to let everyone know that CCTV is in operation.
