In this case since the company does not store the images GDPR doesn’t apply.

  Doesn't the GDPR also apply to entities that process personal data (as opposed to only those that store it)? AFAIK it should apply to entities that share personal data with third parties, for instance.

  Even if they don't retain the images, it's a veritable treasure trove for security agencies, who will almost certainly be hoovering them up, either with or without the company's knowledge.

    It's been a few years since I traveled international - but CBP already takes pictures at passport control, don't they?

      I have never had my picture taken while leaving the United States, which is what this sounds like. Arriving? Sure.

        You have not had this knowingly. You have not posed for a photo. But surely, the government has plenty of cameras in customs areas and face recognition has been a thing for a decade.

          Now think about the attributes they're recording from your phone when you approach.

          You don't go through customs areas to leave the US, though. Maybe the TSA does it, of course.
