Privacy Applications
Automatically mask faces, persons, and vehicles in your video footage to keep your sites secure and meet privacy regulations.
Security That Protects — Without Compromising Privacy
Modern surveillance systems collect an enormous amount of video data. With that comes a growing responsibility: protecting the privacy of the individuals captured on camera — employees, tenants, customers, and bystanders — while still maintaining the security your sites require.
Clear Watch privacy applications use AI to automatically detect and mask people, faces, and vehicles in video footage — giving you the security intelligence you need without exposing sensitive personal information. Whether you're sharing footage with law enforcement, complying with privacy regulations, or simply protecting tenant privacy, our system handles it automatically.
What Gets Protected — Three Layers of Privacy Protection
Clear Watch automatically identifies and masks three categories of sensitive data in your video footage — faces, persons, and vehicles — to meet your privacy and compliance requirements.
Face Privacy & Masking
AI automatically detects and blurs or masks faces in video footage — preventing the identification of individuals without affecting the overall security value of the recording.

How It Works
Clear Watch privacy masking runs automatically in the background — no manual review required. Your footage stays secure, your privacy obligations stay met.
Detect
AI continuously scans video footage and automatically identifies faces, persons, and vehicles across all camera feeds.
Classify
Detected subjects are classified by type — face, full person, or vehicle — and matched against your configured privacy rules and masking protocols.
Mask
Privacy masking is applied automatically — blurring, silhouetting, or redacting the relevant elements while preserving the security value of the footage.
Share or Store
Masked footage is stored and can be shared with law enforcement, legal teams, or property management — fully compliant and ready for use.
