We’ve only asked a small percentage of the thousands of police departments currently active in the United States for their ALPR records. If you don’t see your local law enforcement in our database, we hope you’ll let us know. MuckRock and EFF will send them a request and add their response to our expanding resource.

Have we already gotten confirmation that ALPR is being used in your area? The policies guiding the implementation of this technology are just as important as the fact of the agencies’ ability to use it. Let us know that you want to see them, and we’ll send another request asking for the rules surrounding ALPR use.

Submit your town or department via the form below. Note: This form is not covered by EFF’s privacy policy. Instead, MuckRock’s privacy policy apply.
