REMOTE SURVEILLANCE
Remote monitoring is an efficient security system to secure your company in Strasbourg against break-ins and against malfunctions of your production and storage tools.
Much more than a simple alarm system, Nexecur's solution connects an alarm to human operators. Operating day and night, it secures your business premises 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
Nexecur's corporate remote monitoring system is made up of at least a central system comprising a central alarm, a siren, a micro-speaker, an activation/deactivation system and motion detectors.
The principle of remote monitoring for companies is simple, when an intrusion is detected in the company, an alert is sent to the Nexecur remote monitoring centre.
The operator listens to the noises on the spot thanks to the micro speaker and orders the intruder to identify himself. If the latter gives the wrong code or does not respond, either the operator proceeds to view the videos recorded by the cameras, or he analyzes the progression of the triggers.
If the break-in is proven, Nexecur immediately alerts the police via a dedicated line.
In addition, remote monitoring can secure your activity in Strasbourg by alerting you to malfunctions in your production and storage tools.
Indeed, an alert is sent to remote monitoring operators according to your needs; management of general commissioning and decommissioning, control of technical alarms (rise or fall in temperature, etc.).
VIDEO SURVEILLANCE BECOMES VIDEO PROTECTION
VIDEO PROTECTION OR VIDEO SURVEILLANCE: FOR WHAT USES?
The term " video protection " has replaced that of " video surveillance " in legislative and regulatory texts: in this respect, from a legal point of view, the National Commission for Computing and Liberties (CNIL) has since March 2011 the powers to control the video protection devices implemented throughout the national territory.
Video protection makes it possible to monitor certain parts of an industrial or commercial site in Strasbourg: securing the flow of goods or funds, surveillance of parking lots and warehouses , movement of staff or customers at the entrances and exits of a store or "a public place, etc. Video protection makes it possible to monitor restricted perimeters, as well as much larger areas. It is all the more effective when its existence is clearly indicated by dissuasive signage.

How to react in case of burglary without breaking and entering?
It's not easy to get reimbursed by the insurance company that protects you from theft when the signs of the break-in are not obvious. The adjuster, indeed, could report to your company that he believes that you left the doors or windows open by forgetfulness, left the keys where they could be easily stolen or other. Here are the steps to follow to maximize your chances of being compensated.
File a complaint with the police or the gendarmerie
The first step to take once the break-in and/or theft has been observed in Strasbourg is therefore to call the police and lodge a complaint by going to the competent authorities, such as the police or the gendarmerie. The public official who will take note of your testimony will then have to draw up a report of denunciation itself.
After filing a complaint, you will be issued a copy of the text of the complaint itself, which will allow you to obtain a duplicate of any stolen documents and belongings, block credit cards, debit cards, and even phone plans, if needed. A copy of this document must be sent to your insurer in order to activate the insurance cover against theft and burglary. Without it, in fact, it is difficult for the insurance to estimate the real sum of the damage and the value of the stolen goods.
Report the burglary to your insurer
Once the report of burglary has been registered in Strasbourg, the next step is to immediately contact your home insurance . There are very specific deadlines that must be respected in order to submit the declaration to the insurance. Once the theft has been officially registered, you have a maximum period of two working days to make this declaration of theft to your insurer.
To make and complete the formal request for insurance, in the event of burglary, you must obtain and provide your insurer with the following elements :
- The home address , in order to locate the property where the burglary took place,
- Your contract number ,
- A precise description of the accident and the damage suffered: in order to quantify the estimate of the extent of the damage reported and the property stolen,
- The copy of the famous theft report receipt : which certifies, in fact, that a theft has indeed been committed at your home and in which the relevant details are listed, concerning the dynamics of the theft itself and the stolen goods,
- A list of stolen or damaged items ,
- The contact details of any third parties or victims who may be involved .
What to do in case of burglary without breaking and entering?
The insurance company only covers damage caused by an obvious intrusion into your home. With or without burglary, the police report must prove that the theft took place . We need to find other ways to prove that the theft even without burglary took place:
- Personal surveillance camera : allows via recordings to prove the veracity of your words,
- Other means like: ringing of the alarm, noises from your apartment (when you can prove that you have been elsewhere) and that your neighbors can possibly witness, a signal of "loud noises" or similar from third parties , cameras near shops or the house itself.
Visiting my home for sale: is video surveillance allowed?
Video surveillance is becoming more and more popular in Strasbourg, and many French people are equipped with it to ensure the security of their homes. Nevertheless, video surveillance is subject to laws, and one cannot film anywhere, anyone and anyhow. But what about when it comes to your own home, and you show it to a potential buyer as part of a real estate sale?
A free installation of video surveillance at home
You should know that the installation of cameras in a private place, namely your home, does not require any administrative authorization. Indeed, you can freely install cameras in your home, whether to protect yourself against burglaries, keep an eye on your children or your pets, or simply capture everyday moments.
On the other hand, you must be very careful to film only your property, and only your property. You are authorized to film your home, your garden or your balcony, but in no case the public road. It is strictly forbidden to film your neighbour's door, the interior of a condominium or your vehicle parked in front of your home.
Use of video surveillance framed by law
The law that regulates the use of cameras is the Data Protection Act of January 6, 1978, amended by the law of August 6, 2004. It serves above all to regulate the practices of employers in terms of video surveillance. The latter must inform their employees and customers in writing, with signs and posters if they wish to install a surveillance camera in a place of professional use. Otherwise, they risk imprisonment for 12 months and a fine of €45,000.
On the other hand, the law is more flexible about the use of a camera by an individual in his home. He only has to warn the people he receives that they can be filmed.
Ensure that everyone's image rights are respected
Everyone has a right to their image, which is why you must ensure that you do not infringe the privacy of your neighbours, passers-by and especially your visitors. When people outside the family circle come to your home, you must inform them of the presence of the video surveillance system.
This is therefore the case for the real estate agent responsible for the sale of your property, but also for potential buyers. Remember, there are criminal penalties that may apply, as discussed above.
For this, you can put up a display at the entrance to your home, or even mention it in the contract you sign with the real estate agent in Strasbourg.
