Safe Harbor (Directive)

Safe Harbor (Directive) is a legal framework that helps organizations transfer personal data from the European Union to countries outside the EU. It sets rules to ensure that the data is protected and handled responsibly, even when it leaves the EU. If a company follows the Safe Harbor principles, it can transfer data without violating EU privacy laws. Essentially, it provides a trusted method for international data sharing, giving both organizations and individuals confidence that personal information will be managed securely and with respect for privacy rights.
