1 Airline Distribution Standards Airline Brief v4 Data Protection and Privacy Notice Implementation, with effectiveness from 1 April 2018 Changes (translations) highlighted in blue Date Issued 27 March 2018 Issued by IATA Airline Distribution Standards Distributed to registered participants of standard setting groups Schedules Information (SISC) Reservations (RESCom) Tariffs (COMP/RADWG) Ticketing (TKTCom) DCS (DCSMWG) Messaging Passenger and Airport Data Interchange (PADIS) BSP Data Interchange (BDISG) Revenue Accounting (IBSOPS) Prorate (GPM) Passenger (PSC) Services Background The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) makes significant changes to privacy law in the European Union and will be enforced from 25 May In addition to the GDPR, there are more than 70 pieces of legislation that govern data protection or privacy matters around the world. As a result, it was considered appropriate to add a data protection notice to the e-ticket and itinerary receipt documentation issued to passengers and amend Resolutions 722f, 722g, 722h, 724, 725f, 725g and 725h accordingly. Key Points and Explanatory Memorandum The GDPR will capture the activities of most major carriers, including all carriers that market their services to EU residents. In addition to the 70 other data protection and privacy laws in force worldwide, it is expected that legislative activity in the area will only increase. One critical aspect of compliance with these laws is a comprehensive privacy policy. 1 of 8

2 Carriers are able to link to their own privacy policy in a direct sales scenario. However, when a ticket is issued through a travel agent or interline partner this is not typically possible. A generic notice addresses this problem by linking to a central index of carrier privacy policies. A new data protection notice for agency and interline channels The IATA Legal Committee established the GDPR Task Force in The Task Force has been asked to consider whether changes should be made to IATA s common systems and standards in light of developments in data protection law. The Task Force recommended that a standard notice, to be inserted on the e-ticket/itinerary receipt and similar to that given in respect of the liability treaties and hazardous materials (affecting Resolution 724, 722f/g/h 725f/g/h), was appropriate. The notice would be applicable for agency and interline ticketing channels. This recommendation was subsequently endorsed by the Ticketing Committee and the Passenger Services Conference. The notice draws the passenger s attention to the fact that processing is occurring under a privacy policy (or policies) and refers the passenger to an IATA web page where the applicable privacy policy can be located. Text of notice The following notice has been added to Resolution 724, 722f/g/h 725f/g/h: Data Protection Notice: Your personal data will be processed in accordance with the applicable carrier s privacy policy and, if your booking is made via a reservation system provider ( GDS ), with its privacy policy. These are available at or from the carrier or GDS directly. You should read this documentation, which applies to your booking and specifies, for example, how your personal data is collected, stored, used, disclosed and transferred. (applicable for interline carriage) * * Note that applicability for 722f and 725f is for interline carriage. * Translations for Spanish, Chinese Simplified (Mandarin), Arabic, French, Portuguese, Russian, German, Italian, Korean, Japanese, Chinese Mandarin Traditional are available from page 4 2 of 8

3 Members should take the necessary action to ensure that the notices above appear in the relevant parts of their e-ticket and e-ticket itinerary receipts. For online e-tickets (i.e. direct sales), there is no requirement to include this notice and the carrier s own notice should be substituted.

7 Frequently Asked Questions Why is this notice required? The notice allows customers to locate the privacy policy (or policies) applicable to their itinerary, where the booking is interline ticketed or ticketed by a travel agency. This puts customers on a comparable footing to those that have booked directly with the carrier and would receive the carrier s own e-ticket or itinerary receipt, which usually include a data protection or privacy notice. When should the notice be added to tickets and itinerary receipts? The effectiveness date declared by the Passenger Services Conference is 1 April Is this notice required for the GDPR? The notice has been developed at the request of the GDPR Task Force to ensure greater transparency for customers. The notice draws their attention to the privacy policy (or policies) applicable to their booking. The notice is generic in nature and should also assist with data protection and privacy requirements in other jurisdictions. Should the notice be used on my online tickets and itinerary receipts? This is not required. Most carriers already have their own data protection and privacy notices and refer to these in existing online booking documentation. When will the central IATA web page go live? Very shortly. Before a full index of carrier privacy policies is available, a holding page with some limited information is available.

8 Reservation system providers (GDS operators) will likely have their own privacy policy and customers may wish to refer to these documents as well. They will also be referred to on the central web page. 8 of 8
