I'm sure there are some ties, perhaps with the airlines you just flew in on, but there isn't a global db that you get logged into, yet. But like I said before, I'm 100% sure that is just a matter of time.

That said, it's not hard for them to find wherever you are if they want to. They just don't see where all you have been upon your return. They could find out, but it's not automatically entered into their computer as you go through customs.

Even 3rd world countries like Cambodia scan your finger prints now when you enter, so once everyone is on board with that, it will be very easy for the entire world to share data. There is some sharing among some countries, but as far as I know it's only used in the event someone is being tracked because they are a fugitive.
