Delta Airlines collects sensitive personal data — including biometrics and passport details — and uses it, along with your travel and transaction history, to verify your identity and tailor its services. You must consent before Delta can use your data for marketing or process your biometric and passport information beyond what your flight requires, and you can withdraw that consent at any time. Third parties also access and store data on your device through Delta's Website and App, including for personalized advertising.
Delta Airlines' Privacy Policy establishes the conditions under which Delta collects, uses, and shares personal information across its services. The policy identifies consent as the legal basis for processing biometric data, passport information beyond flight necessity, and marketing communications, and requires that consent for marketing be obtained at the moment of collection. Delta and third parties may access and store data on users' devices for service operation, performance analysis, and personalized advertising, and Delta may combine travel, transaction, and communication data to construct preference profiles for product tailoring. Sensitive categories of personal information may only be processed for the purpose for which they were provided or for which express consent has been given, and users may withdraw consent to any specific data use at any time through the method described at collection or by submitting a privacy request through Delta's Privacy Request Form.
As an individual user, you control whether biometric data such as facial comparison is used for identity verification at check-in, bag drop, and boarding — that use is optional. Delta will not send you marketing communications unless you consented at the time your information was collected, and if you did consent to any specific data use, you can withdraw that consent at any time by using the method described when consent was given or by submitting a request through Delta's Privacy Request Form. If you provide another person's information to Delta, you are responsible for confirming that person has authorized the sharing and consented to its use under the Privacy Policy.
