How long do banks keep CCTV?
The retention time for banks to keep CCTV varies. It may take the days or months until something or someone responds in such a way to be noticed.
For instance, it may take days for someone to cause a security problem which is worthy noting and which may call for investigation. In such cases, the bank will naturally have to retain the CCTV footage for long enough until there is ground enough to call for an investigation. This is especially so as it may take a number of days or even months for a problem to be brought to light.
So to answer the question – it depends upon the bank in question. However, most banks will not keep CCTV footage for longer than is necessary.

Car Park CCTV
When given the choice between parking your car on a car park without any security or parking your car on a car park overseen by CCTV the preferable option is obvious.
Car crime can be a great worry to people when they leave their car unattended, especially if they are visiting an area with which they are unfamiliar. Therefore, if you own a car park it can pay dividends to install a CCTV system on the premises.
CCTV is an exceptionally effective deterrent of crime, and car parks guarded by the presence of CCTV provide a high level of protection for the vehicles parked there. The ability of security camera systems to ward off those looking to target unattended cars offers drivers the reassurance they want and encourages them to choose properly secured car parks.
Another useful function of CCTV is for number plate recognition (ANPR). If you own a car park then you need to ensure that the cars who use it pay the rates that you charge. CCTV can ensure that cars do not use your car park without paying.
The correct CCTV system can allow you to read the number plates of cars, allowing you to ascertain both when they entered the car park and when they left. This, in turn, means that you know how long a car has been parked on your car park, the level of payment that is due, and whether or not the driver has paid.

This is hardly surprising, in view of the excellent work they do as a deterrent to crime, and also as a means of identifying and bringing any wrong-doers to justice.
Would-be thieves are often put off by the presence of strategically-placed and visible CCTV cameras, which is step number one in the fight against crime, and those who take the risk are usually caught quite clearly in the recorded footage so that they are either seen and apprehended at the time, or identified and tracked down by the police later on.
CCTV also offers protection for the staff and acts as a security measure for the owner, who is able to monitor any irregularities involving the work force. If staff know they are being watched there will be far less chance of them doing anything underhand and hey will be far more likely to give a good day’s work for a good day’s pay.
Shoplifting, vandalism and malpractice by employees are all, therefore, subject to the all-seeing eye of the camera with the result that safety, security and protection is offered all round.
There are many technological advances in recent years which have been of great benefit to shopkeepers and CCTV is certainly one of the most important.

The benefits of using CCTV in your bar, pub or club
During recent years the popularity of CCTV cameras in public spaces has grown, helping to maintain safety on our streets. Shops and supermarkets use CCTV, but what about bars, pubs and clubs? Do we really need them? Well, the answer is yes and below we explain why.
A sense of safety
Any pub, club or bar that installs CCTV needs to tell customers of this fact. This is usually done via wall signs. What this means is that both customers and staff will feel much safer drinking in your establishment.
Stop trouble before it escalates
CCTV allows your security staff to quickly get to a disturbance or altercation. They can either stop any trouble before it escalates or alert the police.
Provides hard evidence
CCTV recordings produce hard evidence that can be used to help convict the guilty party.
A great deterrent
When people are aware that there is CCTV on your premises, they will be less likely to commit a crime. CCTV alone can create a less antagonistic environment.
Assist management with health and safety
CCTV can help with daily health and safety checks, and procedures. Overall it will help to maintain the welfare of all staff and customers. With a remote monitoring system, a close eye can be kept on both the inside and outside of your establishment.
