Security technology in Thailand is evolving rapidly, and with it comes a growing concern about data privacy, consent, and compliance with local laws. For organizations managed by foreign executives — such as hotels, international schools, and corporate offices — understanding CCTV compliance in Thailand is essential to avoid legal and reputational risks.
At RAS EDGE TECHNOLOGIES, we help organizations implement AI-enhanced CCTV systems that meet modern data protection standards and provide full transparency for both management and guests.
---1. Understanding CCTV Compliance in Thailand
Thailand’s Personal Data Protection Act (PDPA) governs the collection, storage, and use of CCTV footage that includes identifiable individuals. Similar to the GDPR in Europe, this law requires that organizations handle video data responsibly, with proper consent and security measures.
- 📜 Clear signage notifying CCTV recording zones
- 📦 Defined retention policies for footage storage
- 🔒 Restricted access to authorized personnel only
- 🧾 Documentation of purpose and data handling methods
2. UniFi Protect & AI Surveillance Systems
Our UniFi Protect platform provides a unified solution for monitoring, recording, and managing CCTV networks while maintaining full data ownership. We combine this with AI-powered cameras for intelligent analytics without compromising user privacy.
- 🎥 AI Detection: Object, vehicle, and human recognition without facial storage
- ☁️ Cloud vs On-Prem NVR: Flexible deployment with total control
- 🧠 AI Motion Analytics: Real-time alerts without overcollection
- 📊 Access Log Control: Track who views or exports footage
3. Balancing Security and Privacy
An effective surveillance system is one that ensures safety without violating personal privacy. RAS EDGE helps define “Privacy Zones” and configure recording boundaries to respect areas such as rest zones, meeting rooms, and classrooms.
- 🔕 Audio recording control and masking options
- 📍 Privacy zones for sensitive spaces
- 📁 Role-based access control for footage
4. Legal and Operational Best Practices
Organizations must adopt a clear CCTV policy aligned with Thai law and international best practices. Below are key recommendations from our compliance team:
- 🧾 Install signage in English and Thai at all camera zones
- 📆 Define and follow a retention period (commonly 30–90 days)
- 👩💻 Limit access to authorized staff with documented login history
- 🗃 Maintain a data protection officer (DPO) record for internal audits
5. Compliance Checklist & Support
To help hotels, schools, and corporate offices stay compliant, RAS EDGE TECHNOLOGIES has prepared a bilingual (English–Thai) CCTV Compliance Checklist covering technical, operational, and legal requirements.
