Disneyland Paris Entrance Photo Notice Says Guests Can Opt Out at Park Gates

Adult-ticket photos used for access checks are deleted within a week, and guests who decline may be asked for identification.

Disneyland Paris says guests can decline the photograph taken at park entrances by telling an employee at the gates. The resort may then ask for identification or other proof that the guest is entitled to use the ticket.

A bilingual notice photographed at the entrances on Wednesday directs guests to the resort’s published turnstile-photo policy. The notice makes the opt-out visible, but Disneyland Paris has not dated the policy page or said when the sign was installed.

The Photo Is Linked to an Adult Ticket

Disneyland Paris says the photograph is associated with an adult admission ticket to check access to its theme parks and prevent fraudulent entry. The resort says the image is deleted within a week and is not processed with facial-recognition technology.

The policy applies to entry checks. Guests can also ask to access, change or remove their personal data by contacting Disneyland Paris at the address listed on the official page.

Guests Who Decline May Need ID

For a ticket issued in a person’s name, the resort may ask for an identity document to verify that the guest is the ticket holder. Tickets purchased through an employee benefit program may instead require proof of the guest’s association with that organization.

The published policy does not say that every guest who opts out will be asked for documents. It says the additional check may be required.
