Good day. This e-mail is for Ms. Caroline Haskins.

I response to your records request letter dated 30 December 2019, I received regarding Clearview AI Facial Recognition software, I offer the following:

The Village of El Portal Police Department does not use any such facial recognition software either by Clearview or any other company. Thus there are no purchase orders, invoices, or receipts available. Furthermore, there are no e-mails, power-point files, and/or slide formats. As such, policies, standard operating procedures, warranties, etc. are non-existent.

If I may be of any further assistance please feel free to contact me.

Respectfully,

David Magnusson
Chief of Police
Village of El Portal Police Department
