Existing law prohibits specified entities that offer lodging, or any employee or agent thereof, from disclosing, producing, providing, releasing, transferring, disseminating, or otherwise communicating all or any part of a guest record, as defined, orally, in writing, or by electronic or any other means to a third party, other than a California peace officer, without a court-issued subpoena, warrant, or order, as specified. Existing law also prohibits an owner or operator of a private or charter bus transportation company, or any employee or agent thereof, from disclosing, producing, providing, releasing, transferring, disseminating, or otherwise communicating all or any part of a passenger manifest, as defined, orally, in writing, or by electronic or any other means to a third party, other than a California peace officer, without a court-issued subpoena, warrant, or order, as specified.
