License plate readers have been in use for two years to monitor a mall property. These readers are placed at entrances and exits, capturing images of vehicles and recording license plate information for security purposes. The collected information is stored in a database accessible to mall security management and certain authorities.

The data is retained for a limited time, specifically 30 days, before being automatically deleted. The cameras are used to identify non-customers and their vehicles, particularly to address non-compliance with employee parking policies.

Further details about the use of license plate readers and their impact are available from the mall's spokesperson and website.
