Herjavec Group Now Certified With EU-U.S. Privacy Shield Framework

July 11, 2019

Herjavec Group is thrilled to announce that we have been certified with the EU-U.S. Privacy Shield Framework as set forth by the U.S. Department of Commerce’s International Trade Administration (ITA). 

The EU-U.S. Privacy Shield Framework, proposed in collaboration by the U.S. Department of Commerce and the European Commission, ensures that companies comply with data protection requirements for the transatlantic transfer of personal data from the EU to the U.S., especially for commercial purposes.

As a result, the Framework includes heightened monitoring of personal data received from the EU, data privacy protection for individuals, and an annual review for organizations receiving the certification. In order to be accepted into the Framework, companies must self-certify and publicly commit to comply with the Frameworks requirements.

Herjavec Group is proud to comply with the Privacy Shield Principles which only strengthens our organization’s commitment to data protection and compliance globally.

“We believe the protection of all information is part of our success. Our customers and employees are very important to us, so we want to assure them that the protection of their personal information is paramount,” Lewie Dunsworth, EVP Global Security Services at Herjavec Group, says.
