The principles developed in 2000 by the US Department of Commerce (DOC) in consultation with the European Commission are commonly referred to as the Safe Harbor framework. These principles apply to U.S. companies that collect personal information from citizens of the European Union (EU). To be placed on a list maintained by the DOC, a U.S. company must meet certain data protection requirements outlined in the Safe Harbor framework. The framework was designed to ensure that U.S. companies provide adequate protection for personal information in accordance with EU data protection laws.
