Camera in elevator: is that allowed without warning?

Questioner

I had a question. I live in an apartment complex. There is an elevator in there and damage was caused to this elevator by an unknown person. Now my neighbor and I are being held responsible for this, even though we didn't do this. Now we wonder if there are no camera images in the elevator. And if this is so, isn't that a breach of privacy, Because there is no sticker anywhere stating that the elevator is monitored by means of CAMERA images. I hope to hear something about this soon. Kind regards ps there is no camera visible, there is a mirror and I wonder if a camera is allowed behind it.

Lawyer

Fortunately, a camera in an elevator in an apartment complex is rare these days. I advise you to simply deny liability for the damage. The best way to do this is by registered letter. In it, ask on what grounds they believe you caused the damage. In my opinion, there is a good chance that the VVE or the landlord are 'fishing' and that there is no evidence at all that you or your neighbor caused the damage.

But my question was whether a camera is ALLOWED to be hung there without this being indicated?
