Like any other security solutions company in the world, we cannot fully control how our technologies are ultimately used by end-users. We need and expect our end users to comply with all applicable local, national and international laws, regulations, and conventions, just as we do. We accept our responsibility to design our technologies in ways that mitigate the risk of abuse and maximize the likelihood of appropriate use. This includes a commitment to never develop solutions to identify a single ethnic, racial or national group. That commitment extends to every market in which we operate, anywhere in the world.

Law enforcement is among our end-users in many of the markets we serve. In all instances, we expect law enforcement end users to use our products appropriately. Contrary to allegations that have been made by certain media outlets, Dahua Technology has not and never will develop solutions targeting any specific ethnic group.

We are a publicly-traded corporation that exists to serve our fiduciary duty to our shareholders, and our corporate responsibility to our customers, employees, and other stakeholders. We do not make policies for any country. We are neither owned nor controlled by any government.

Central to those efforts is our commitment to the highest standards of data security. Our company has developed and rigorously applies industry best practices related to data protection in all of our solutions and products.
