Incident: Transportation company collects and discloses passengers' personal information
A transportation company
The OPC investigated a complaint concerning a transportation company's practice of collecting passengers' dates of birth and citizenship for the Toronto-to-New York route and disclosing this information to U.S. Customs. The company confirmed this practice, which began in 2000, was an agreement with U.S. border agencies to minimize delays. The OPC determined that sales agents misrepresented the collection of this information as mandatory.
