Security Camera Registry

Voluntary Security Camera Registration

The Klamath Falls Police Department invites residents and businesses to voluntarily register their security cameras as part of our community partnership program.

By registering, you provide officers with a list of potential camera locations in the event of a crime. This helps investigators quickly identify where surveillance footage may exist—saving valuable time and increasing the chances of solving cases. Registration does not give police direct access to your cameras; instead, it allows officers to reach out if an incident happens near your property and request footage.

Together, we can use technology and collaboration to make Klamath Falls a safer community.

Benefits of Registration

  • Faster Investigations
    Officers can quickly identify nearby cameras that may have captured important evidence.

  • Community Partnerships
    Builds stronger collaboration between law enforcement and residents.

  • Deterrence & Prevention
    The knowledge that cameras are in the area can discourage criminal activity.

  • Targeted Requests
    Police will only contact you if a crime occurs near your location.

How the Program Works

  1. Voluntary Participation
    You choose whether or not to register your camera.

  2. Information Collection
    Registration adds your camera location and contact details to a secure database.

  3. Incident-Based Requests
    If a crime occurs, officers may reach out to see if your camera captured useful footage.

  4. Owner Discretion
    You decide whether to share your footage.

What Registration Does Not Do

  • No Direct Access
    Police cannot view or control your cameras.

  • No Continuous Surveillance
    Your cameras are never monitored by law enforcement—only footage you voluntarily share is used in investigations.
