GETTING THE OK: The European Union parliament approved a new data agreement with the United States that tightens restrictions on sharing information about passengers flying from Europe to the U.S.
THE CONCERNS: Critics say the agreement does not provide sufficient privacy protection for EU citizens. But the majority argued that the agreement had made enough progress over a 2007 deal.
DATA INVOLVED: The agreement centers on data gathered by air carriers, including addresses, credit details, luggage information and passengers’ seat numbers. U.S. authorities say such data has helped nearly all of their high-profile terrorist investigations.
