On what legal basis does US CBP have ongoing BAU acccess to my non US itinerary? Disproportionate under GDPR surely?
To access this data, for example Iberia would have to routinely supply customer details of all flights on MAD-HAV to the US? I don't believe that happens on a BAU basis.
Happy to be corrected, I work in data....
