The places that scan your ID often do save your info. Not supposed to, but it’s common.

If they use a scanner absolutely. That’s the only safe assumption. But at least that’s engineering incompetence instead of government overreach. Most of the times my ID gets checked the only tool used is the human eyeball.

This is incorrect. Many states have laws specifically encouraging ID scanning: https://idscan.net/us-id-scanning-laws/

Is there a requirement to make this scan history available to the government?
