Terms of Service

Last updated: Aug 18, 2026

Simple, plain-English terms
TL;DR: FlockWatch is an independent information and tool site. The data we publish is sourced public reporting; we are not affiliated with Flock Safety and nothing here is legal advice.

1. What this site is

FlockWatch tracks publicly reported information about Flock Safety license plate reader cameras — incidents, contract actions, state status, and tools like the FOIA request generator. The site is operated independently and has no affiliation with Flock Safety, Inc. or any law-enforcement agency.

2. Not legal advice

Content on this site, including state law pages, FAQ answers and generated letters, is informational and based on publicly reported sources. It is not legal advice. For legal questions, consult a qualified attorney in your jurisdiction.

3. Using our content

Our data files (on GitHub) are licensed under CC BY 4.0 — you may use, share and adapt them with attribution. Our website text and pages may be quoted with attribution for news, research or advocacy purposes. You may not republish the site wholesale or use it in a way that misrepresents its content.

4. Third-party tools and links

We link to third-party services (e.g., Have I Been Flocked, DeFlock) and news sources. We don't control them and aren't responsible for their content, privacy practices or availability.

5. Your use of the site

  • You may use the tools (FOIA generator, state lookup) for lawful purposes.
  • You agree not to use the site to harass, threaten, or engage in illegal activity — including encouraging damage to surveillance equipment. We document incidents; we do not endorse them.
  • Nothing you enter in our browser-only tools is transmitted to us (see the privacy policy).

6. Disclaimer of warranties

Information is provided "as is" without warranties of any kind. While we verify every entry against its public source, we cannot guarantee that sources are complete or error-free. Data may change as new reporting emerges.
