Ontario Provincial Police officers are highlighting the CAMSafe program with businesses in West Nipissing.
They began visiting local businesses this week.
The Nipissing West OPP says CAMSafe is a program aimed at creating a database of residential and commercial security cameras that may act as a resource for police when investigating offences/crime.
Police say when an officer uses the database they see a map of the local area and can click on registered addresses to view further details, such as property owner contact information.
“Officers cannot access your security cameras or cloud-based accounts,” states a release. “If police would like to examine camera footage, they can make a request to the property owner using contact information from the database.”
