Hi

not strictly true it can view other property's but must comply with GDPR and you have the right to check if anything saved

Ask yourself if you would be happy with a neighbours camera pointing into your bathroom?

If they have had it set up by a proper cctv trained company then they should have a block out on other people’s private property. We have cctv fitted for our pub and the streets surrounding where our cars and access points are but have black squares positioned across the neighbours doors and windows to comply with privacy laws.
