Alpr Case For

Document text

Flock argues ALPRs 'observe vehicles, not people,' that 'license plates are public by design,' and that its cameras create 'discrete, point-in-time observations… rather than an always-on dossier,' with 30-day default retention, hard deletion, encryption, and an audit trail of every search reason. Police groups like the IACP treat ALPR as legitimate when queries are tied to a case number, run by trained users, and audited. Source: Flock Safety / IACP.
