Iniaves on the Use of Video Products
Thank you for choosing Hikvision products.
Technology aects every aspect of our life. As a high-tech company, we are increasingly aware of
the role technology plays in improving business eciency and quality of life, but at the same me,
the potenal harm of its improper usage. For example, video products are capable of recording
real, complete and clear images. This provides a high value in retrospect and preserving real-me
facts. However, it may also result in the infringement of a third party's legimate rights and
interests if improper distribuon, use and/or processing of video data takes place. With the
philosophy of "Technology for the Good", Hikvision requests that every end user of video
technology and video products shall comply with all the applicable laws and regulaons, as well as
ethical customs, aiming to jointly create a beer community.
Please read the following iniaves carefully:
●Everyone has a reasonable expectaon of privacy, and the installaon of video products should
not be in conict with this reasonable expectaon. Therefore, a warning noce shall be given in
a reasonable and eecve manner and clarify the monitoring range, when installing video
products in public areas. For non-public areas, a third party's rights and interests shall be
evaluated when installing video products, including but not limited to, installing video products
only aer obtaining the consent of the stakeholders, and not installing highly-invisible video
products.
●The purpose of video products is to record real acvies within a specic me and space and
under specic condions. Therefore, every user shall rst reasonably dene his/her own rights in
such specic scope, in order to avoid infringing on a third party's portraits, privacy or other
legimate rights.
●During the use of video products, video image data derived from real scenes will connue to be
generated, including a large amount of biological data (such as facial images), and the data could
be further applied or reprocessed. Video products themselves could not disnguish good from
bad regarding how to use the data based solely on the images captured by the video products.
The result of data usage depends on the method and purpose of use of the data controllers.
Therefore, data controllers shall not only comply with all the applicable laws and regulaons and
other normave requirements, but also respect internaonal norms, social morality, good
morals, common pracces and other non-mandatory requirements, and respect individual
privacy, portrait and other rights and interests.
●The rights, values and other demands of various stakeholders should always be considered when
processing video data that is connuously generated by video products. In this regard, product
security and data security are extremely crucial. Therefore, every end user and data controller,
shall undertake all reasonable and necessary measures to ensure data security and avoid data
leakage, improper disclosure and improper use, including but not limited to, seng up access

control, selecng a suitable network environment (the Internet or Intranet) where video
products are connected, establishing and constantly opmizing network security.
●Video products have made great contribuons to the improvement of social security around the
world, and we believe that these products will also play an acve role in more aspects of social
life. Any abuse of video products in violaon of human rights or leading to criminal acvies are
contrary to the original intent of technological innovaon and product development. Therefore,
each user shall establish an evaluaon and tracking mechanism of their product applicaon to
ensure that every product is used in a proper and reasonable manner and with good faith.
