Georgia license plate reader law

Georgia has a cap, but a long one. A limit measured in months or years is a record of everywhere you went in that time. A private company logging your trips in Georgia does not have to delete them, because there is no general privacy law here that says so. You have no clear right to see what has been collected about you.

This state exempts this data from public records. The records branch dead-ends here, and asking will not change that.

Limit on how long data is kept: Weak

Ga. Code § 35-1-22. Data must be destroyed no later than 30 months after collection, unless it concerns a toll violation or a law enforcement purpose. Source

Private cameras regulated: No

Georgia has no comprehensive consumer privacy law in effect, so there is no general right to have a business delete data it holds about you. Source

You can see your own record: No

Ga. Code § 35-1-22. Captured data is not subject to public disclosure, and no access right is given to the registered owner. Source

Sharing restricted: Partial

Ga. Code § 35-1-22. Agencies may exchange data with other law enforcement agencies. Obtaining it under false pretences is a misdemeanour of a high and aggravated nature. Source

Audits required: No

Ga. Code § 35-1-22. No audit or report is required. Source

Graded on all five criteria. Read against the statute itself.
