Legal Implications of Data Collection at Airports
As technology evolves, airports and their partners collect more data from passengers,
employees, tenants, concessionaires, airlines, and others. This data is used in many ways,
including for facility management, security, ground transportation, marketing, understanding
passenger preferences, and enhancing the travel experience.
The TRB Airport Cooperative Research Program's
ACRP Legal Research Digest 42:
Legal Implications of Data Collection at Airports
provides a survey of applicable law; considerations for the collection and safekeeping of data;
and a review of the issues that arise related to data collection among airports, their tenants,
and other users. It also offers an understanding of the expansion in law around data collection and use.
