Can My California HOA Track My License Plate With Flock Cameras?

from HOA HELL · host Michael Kushner

Your HOA installed Flock cameras (or some  other form of ALPR camera) in your HOA that photograph every car going in and out, log the plate, the date, and the time, and feed it all into a searchable database. Most homeowners assume it’s harmless security. In this episode, HOA attorney Michael Kushner, considered by many in the industry to be the #1 homeowner-side HOA attorney in California, breaks down what California law demands of any HOA running these Flock cameras, and how few of them actually follow it. What You'll Learn in this Episode: ✅ What your HOA is legally required to post before it can point a Flock camera at you.✅ The one document have an absolute right to demand, and what to hunt for inside it.✅ How a curious or vengeful director abusing the Flock data can end up personally on the hook.✅ Why weaknesses in the current laws for people who abuse the technology by violating people’s privacy rights. If your HOA is tracking your license plate, this episode arms you with what the law requires and where it falls short. Helpful Links: “Can My California HOA Track My License Plate With Flock Cameras?”https://mbkchapman.com/california-hoa-flock-cameras-license-plate-fact-sheet/ “Can I See My California HOA’s Records?
