Frequently Asked Questions

Is it illegal to use GPS trackers?

No, GPS trackers are not illegal in themselves. However, how and where they are used is subject to UK law. Installing or using a tracker without lawful authority or a legitimate reason may be unlawful.

Covert Eye only provides tracking services where there is a lawful basis to do so, and every enquiry is carefully assessed before any work is undertaken.

Can I track my partner?

In most cases, you cannot legally place a GPS tracker on your partner’s vehicle without a lawful basis or their consent. If you have concerns about infidelity or other personal matters, our surveillance services may provide a more appropriate and legally compliant solution.

We are happy to discuss your circumstances confidentially and advise on the most suitable course of action.

Can I install cameras in someone's home?

Generally, no. Installing hidden cameras inside someone else’s home without their knowledge or consent is likely to be unlawful and could breach privacy laws.

If you have concerns about theft, safeguarding, or suspicious activity, speak to us first. We can advise on lawful surveillance options tailored to your situation.

Is hiring a private investigator legal?

Yes. Hiring a private investigator is legal in the UK, provided all investigations are carried out within the law. At Covert Eye, every investigation is conducted ethically, professionally, and in accordance with current legislation.
