I cannot figure out how the Starwood reservation system can have passport information on 327 million guests and why. I never gave my passport information to the SPG loyalty program, so the only way they can have my passport information is when I check into hotels in countries that requires passport information. Does that mean those hotels then post my passport information into a central system used by every Starwood hotels worldwide? What was the purpose of that?
