What are my privacy rights with a ring.com neighbor's doorbell?

Questioner

My neighbors have one of those ring.com doorbells with cameras and it makes an extremely loud (and therefore annoying) noise that echoes through my house all day long, plus the fact that the associated camera is not only pointed at their front door but also at mine. So they can see and hear everything and everyone who comes or goes through my front door. I wonder, is this allowed? For example, since the tobacco shop on the street has been robbed several times, but is not allowed to install a camera for privacy reasons?

Lawyer

Dear, You have a point here. It is not permitted to make the immediate surroundings visible with a camera. However, one may make the person ringing the doorbell visible. It is also the case that one is required to make it known that there is a camera, by means of a sticker or a sign. If you fail to do so, then that is a violation of privacy. It is also important to discuss this in harmony with each other that you are 'bothered' by it. If this negotiation does not lead to anything, then you can call in the subdistrict court. Should I require legal assistance in this matter, you may approach me directly, if desired. If you have any questions, please feel free to ask. Hereby.
