The U.S. Department of Commerce (DOC)'s International Trade Administration (ITA) administers the U.S.-EU Safe Harbor program and U.S.-Swiss Safe Harbor program. The U.S.-EU Safe Harbor Framework and U.S.-Swiss Safe Harbor Framework provide eligible U.S. organizations with a streamlined means of complying with the relevant requirements of the European Union's Data Protection Directive and the Swiss Federal Act on Data Protection. The Safe Harbor Frameworks help facilitate the flow of personal data worth critical to billions of dollars in trade between the United States and the EU and Switzerland. In line with President Obama's National Export Initiative, the ITA is interested in gathering information from U.S. organizations that participate in the U.S.-EU Safe Harbor program and/or the U.S.-Swiss Safe Harbor program to better evaluate how the Safe Harbor Frameworks support U.S. exports and potentially identify areas for improvement. The voluntary survey provides participants, including small businesses, in the Safe Harbor programs with an opportunity to communicate directly with the DOC regarding these programs.
