For “commercial but free” There is AxxonOne (was AxxonNext) But free only allows 4 cameras. However this is best out of all FOSS in terms of what it can do.
For FOSS there is: Frigate Shinobi Zoneminder iSpy Viseron Moonfire NVR motionEyeOS
Lots of options but you will need some baremetal or a decently powered server and hypervisor to run in a VM.

Any closed circuit security systems, ones that aren’t cloud based will come with an NVR (like a DVR) that hosts your recordings locally. Most are wired but some support wireless as well. Generally more expensive but in my opinion worth it.
My mom bought a simple setup for I think 3 or 400 dollars at Costco.
INAL but law enforcement can still request or subpoena your video if they suspect a crime has been witnessed by your cameras AFAIK. But at least you’ll know about it.
