Iniaves on the Use of Video Products
Thank you for choosing Hikvision products.
Technology aects every aspect of our life. As a high tech company, we are -
increasingly aware of the role technology plays in improving business efciency and
quality of life, but at the same me, the potenal harm of its improper usage. For
example, video products are capable of recording real, complete and clear images.
This provides a high value in retrospect and preserving real me facts. However, it -
may also result in the infringement of a third party's legimate rights and interests if
improper distribuon, use and/or processing of video data takes place. With the
philosophy of "Technology for the Good", Hikvision requests that every end user of
video technology and video products shall comply with all the applicable laws and
regulaons, as well as ethical customs, aiming to jointly create a better community.
Please read the following iniaves carefully:
● Everyone has a reasonable expectaon of privacy, and the installaon of video
products should not be in conict with this reasonable expectaon. Therefore, a
warning noce shall be given in a reasonable and effecve manner and clarify the
monitoring range, when installing video products in public areas. For non public -
areas, a third party's rights and interests shall be evaluated when installing video
products, including but not limited to, installing video products only aer
obtaining the consent of the stakeholders, and not installing highly invisible video -
products.
● The purpose of video products is to record real acvies within a specic me and
space and under specic condions. Therefore, every user shall rst reasonably
dene his/her own rights in such specic scope, in order to avoid infringing on a
third party's portraits, privacy or other legimate rights.
● During the use of video products, video image data derived from real scenes will
connue to be generated, including a large amount of biological data (such as
facial images), and the data could be further applied or reprocessed. Video
products themselves could not disnguish good from bad regarding how to use
the data based solely on the images captured by the video products. The result of
data usage depends on the method and purpose of use of the data controllers.
Therefore, data controllers shall not only comply with all the applicable laws and
regulaons and other normave requirements, but also respect internaonal
norms, social morality, good morals, common pracces and other non mandatory -
requirements, and respect individual privacy, portrait and other rights and
interests.
● The rights, values and other demands of various stakeholders should always be
considered when processing video data that is connuously generated by video
products. In this regard, product security and data security are extremely crucial.
