Body-Worn Camera Notice

Odin Security Services Inc. may use body-worn cameras at this property as part of our security services. Body-worn cameras are used to support safety, accountability, incident documentation, and response to security-related concerns.

Why Body-Worn Cameras May Be Used

• Resident, tenant, visitor, contractor, and staff safety.
• Security incident documentation.
• De-escalation and accountability.
• Response to unauthorized access, trespassing, threats, property damage, theft, or emergencies.
• Review of complaints, incidents, and safety concerns.
• Cooperation with police, fire, EMS, insurers, legal counsel, regulators, or property management where appropriate.

Body-worn cameras are intended to be used openly and for security-related purposes. They are not used for general monitoring of residents’ private lives, entertainment, or unnecessary surveillance.

When Cameras May Be Recording

• Unauthorized access or trespassing.
• Aggressive, threatening, or abusive behaviour.
• Property damage, theft, vandalism, or suspicious activity.
• Police, fire, or EMS response.
• Medical or safety-related incidents.
• Serious disputes or complaints.
• Situations where recording is reasonably necessary for safety, accountability, or documentation.

Where safe and practical, security staff may advise individuals that recording is taking place.

• Access to footage is restricted to authorized personnel who require access for a legitimate business purpose.
• Footage is not posted online, shared for entertainment, or provided to unauthorized persons.
• Footage is retained only as long as reasonably necessary for the purpose it was collected.

• Property management or the client.
• Legal counsel.
• Insurance providers.
• Regulators, courts, tribunals, or government authorities.
