However, the public often mistakenly equates private detectives’ (hereinafter: detectives) personal perception with covert investigative measures used by police and intelligence services. It is essential to distinguish between these two forms of privacy interference. Detectives may use personal perception - lawful, time-limited observation from public spaces - to gather evidence for their clients. Although discreet, it is not a covert investigative act. Detectives may use imaging devices, while state authorities have broader surveillance powers. The purpose of personal perception is to develop evidence for a client, whereas covert surveillance serves criminal or intelligence objectives and entails a deeper privacy intrusion. Despite its lesser intensity, detective work must also be properly regulated and subject to oversightDržavni in zasebni nadzorni organi lahko pri pridobivanju informacij zakonito kršijo temeljne pravice. Vendar javnost pogosto napačno enači osebno zaznavanje zasebnih detektivov (v nadaljnjem besedilu: detektivi) s prikritimi preiskovalnimi ukrepi, ki jih uporabljajo policija in obveščevalne službe. Bistveno je razlikovati med tema dvema oblikama poseganja v zasebnost. Detektivi lahko za zbiranje dokazov za svoje stranke uporabijo osebno zaznavanje, ki pomeni zakonito in časovno omejeno opazovanje iz javnih prostorov. Čeprav je to diskretno, ne gre za prikrito preiskovalno dejanje. Detektivi lahko uporabljajo naprave za slikovno snemanje, medtem ko imajo državni organi širša pooblastila za nadzor. Namen osebnega zaznavanja je pridobiti dokaze za stranko, medtem ko prikrito nadzorovanje služi kazenskim ali obveščevalnim ciljem in pomeni globlje poseganje v zasebnost. Kljub manjši intenzivnosti mora biti delo detektivov ustrezno urejeno in podvrženo nadzoruTEXTznanstveno časopisjejournalsSlovenian National E-content AggregatorNational and University Library of SloveniaUniverza v Mariboru, Pravna fakulteta
