What the plate readers in Lancaster keep
- Records
- The plate of each car that passes, with the time and place. Often a photo of the car.
- Run by
- Most don't say. Tagged ones include private operators (18).
- Kept for
- Not published on the map. Each operator sets its own. Flock Safety’s FAQ: “Flock recommends a 7-day default.”
- Who sees it
- Whoever runs it, and those it shares with. In California, a public agency may share only with other public agencies in the state.
- How to ask
- Read the operator's policy. California requires one. Or ask the city for its records.

EyesOnFlock lists no transparency portal for the Lancaster Police Department (Oct 14, 2026). It posts no sharing list, so who can search reads from its cameras is not stated. The sharing lists of 134 agencies name it, so it can search their reads.
