Ohio recording law stipulates that it is a one-party consent state. In Ohio, it is a criminal offense to use any device to record or share communications, whether they are wire, oral or electronic, without the consent of at least one person taking part in the communication. This means that in Ohio, you are legally allowed to record a conversation if you are a contributor, or with prior consent from one of the involved parties, barring any criminal intentions. Ohio Rev. Code Ann. § 2933.52 (West 2012).
Consent of at least one person of an in-person conversation is required to record a conversation with an expectation of privacy.
You may not record, obtain, share or use conversations that you are not a part of without the consent of at least one party.
However, Ohio law does make an exception in cases where the person or people communicating are doing so in an environment where they should not be under the expectation of privacy. Ohio Rev. Code Ann. § 2933.51.
If you are a third-party and require consent from the parties taking part in the conversation, the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) states that you may gain consent to make a recording by:
Getting verbal or written consent prior to the recording being made.
A verbal notification being played before the conversation begins. (For example: “This phone call is being recorded for quality control purposes…”).
An audible beep tone being repeated at steady intervals during the duration of the conversation.

Leaving a recording device in a room after you leave to record a conversation you are not part of.
Aiming a surveillance camera into an area of a neighbour’s home where there is an expectation of privacy such as an interior window or bedroom.
Ohio Video Recording Laws
It is illegal to trespass or secretly invade the privacy of another person to videotape, film, photograph, or otherwise record that person in a state of nudity for sexual gratification purposes. For example, recording someone who is using a public restroom is illegal because that is place where people expect privacy and maybe in a nude state. Ohio Rev. Code Ann. § 2907.08(B)
No person is allowed to secretly videotape, film, photograph, or otherwise record another person through or under that person’s clothing with the intention of viewing that person’s body or undergarments. Ohio Rev. Code Ann. § 2907.08(D)
Ohio does not have any specific laws regulating the use of surveillance video, so instead it comes down to the legality of surveillance cameras as they relate to other laws. The two laws that most often apply to surveillance video in Ohio are the states hidden camera laws and the wiretap.
(A) No person, for the purpose of sexually arousing or gratifying the person’s self, shall commit trespass or otherwise surreptitiously invade the privacy of another, to spy or eavesdrop upon another. (B) No person, for the purpose of sexually arousing or gratifying the person’s self, shall commit trespass or otherwise surreptitiously invade the privacy of another to videotape, film, photograph, or otherwise record the other person in a state of nudity. (C) No person, for the purpose of sexually arousing or gratifying the person’s self, shall commit trespass or otherwise surreptitiously invade the privacy of another to videotape, film, photograph, otherwise record, or spy or eavesdrop upon the other person in a state of nudity if the other person is a minor. (D) No person shall secretly or surreptitiously videotape, film, photograph, or otherwise record another person under or through the clothing being worn by that other person for the purpose of viewing the body of, or the undergarments worn by, that other person.
Ohio’s hidden camera law makes it illegal to secretly videotape, film, photograph, or otherwise record another person. This means that a camera can not be place in an area where it intentionally records someone in a state of undress OR there is an expectation of privacy.
Ohio Rev. Code Ann. § 2933.52 – The states wiretap law makes it illegal to intercept oral communication in areas where there is an expectation of privacy without the consent of at least one party. This law is often nullified as many surveillance cameras do not record audio to avoid this situation. If your camera is recording audio then it must be publicly placed where there is no expectation of privacy.
What this means is that owning a video surveillance camera is legal if it is on your own property and not used in a nefarious manner. You can put a surveillance camera anywhere where there is not an expectation of privacy.
Additionally, as Ohio is a one-party consent state, in order to record audio you need to gain the consent of at least one party. Because of those, it is best practice to not record audio when you are utilizing surveillance cameras.
Penalties:
Ohio Rev. Code Ann. § 2933.52: Recording a conversation in violation of Ohio law is a felony.
Ohio Rev. Code Ann. § 2907.08(E)(3)(5): Illegally recording another person who is in a state of nudity is a misdemeanor of the second degree which is punishable by imprisonment not exceeding 90 days. If the person is a minor, the offense is classed as a felony of the fifth degree which is punishable by imprisonment of 6-12 months or a fine not exceeding $2500 or both.
Ohio Rev. Code Ann. § 2907.08(E)(4): Recording through or under another person’s clothing is a misdemeanor of the first degree which is punishable by imprisonment not exceeding 180 days.
FAQ Ohio Recording Law Questions

How do I Transcribe an Audio Recording?
There are many methods to transcribe audio. You can do it yourself simply in a word document, hire someone to transcribe it, or use an audio transcription service.
