(read more) Certain PNR data identified as “sensitive” may be included in the PNR when it is transferred from reservation and/or air carrier departure systems in the EU to DHS. Such “sensitive” PNR data would include certain information revealing the passenger’s racial or ethnic origin, political opinion, religion, health status or sexual preference. DHS has undertaken that it will not use any “sensitive” PNR data that it receives from air carrier reservation systems or departure control systems in the EU. DHS has put in place an automated filtering program so that “sensitive” PNR data is not used.
