Safe Harbor Program

The Safe Harbor Program is a legal framework designed to protect organizations from liability when they take reasonable steps to comply with specific laws or regulations. For example, in the context of data privacy, it allows companies to follow guidelines to ensure they handle personal information responsibly. If a business follows the program’s rules and still faces issues, they may not be held fully accountable, provided they acted in good faith. The concept aims to encourage best practices and foster trust while ensuring that protections are in place for individuals’ rights.
