MMS - Sending Pictures via Text Message to the Constabulary
We now have the facility to receive static 'pictures' captured on Mobile phones via a dedicated number (Receipt of moving Video is NOT currently available). It is important to note that specific legislation relates to this kind of material e.g., Right to a private life under Human Rights Act. And there are strict guidelines for the police to adhere in relation to such material.
Where you may have something of evidential value captured as an image on a mobile phone then please make a police call taker aware, or police personnel who are in attendance at the scene. You will then be provided with a dedicated number on which to send any such images to the police. To ensure this service is not abused we will create a specific incident related to that material and this may require taking a small amount of detail from the caller.
Note that it costs 40p to send an image via this text system.
In forwarding any image(s) to Gloucestershire Constabulary you are expressing agreement to assign to us copyright in the image to enable us to store, reproduce or publish the image as we consider necessary or desirable.
