IV. Privacy Shield Framework

Last updated: February 19, 2023.

Gadget Advisor complies with the EU-US Privacy Shield Framework.

As established by the U.S. Department of Commerce.

With respect to the collection, use and retention of personal information transferred from the European Union to the United States. Gadget Advisor has certified to the Department of Commerce that it adheres to the Privacy Shield Principles.

If there is any conflict between the terms of this privacy policy and the Privacy Shield Principles, the Privacy Shield Principles shall prevail.

For more information about the Privacy Shield program and to view our certification, please visit https://www.privacyshield.gov/

1. ADDITIONAL TRANSFER LIABILITY

A. To transfer personal information to a third party acting as a controller, organizations must comply with the Notice and Choice Principles.

Organizations must also enter into a contract with the third-party controller that states that such data may only be processed for limited, specified purposes in accordance with the consent provided by the individual and that the recipient will provide the same level of protection as the Principles and will notify the organization if it determines that it can no longer meet this obligation.

The contract shall provide that when such a determination is made, the external controller shall cease processing or take other reasonable and appropriate steps to remedy.

B. To transfer personal data to a third party acting as an agent, organizations must: (i) transfer such data only for limited and specified purposes; (ii) ensure that the agent is obligated to provide at least the same level of privacy protection as required by the Principles; (iii) take reasonable and appropriate steps to ensure that the agent effectively processes the transferred personal information in a manner consistent with the organization’s obligations under the Principles; (iv) require the agent to notify the organization if it determines that it can no longer meet its obligation to provide the same level of protection as required by the Principles; (v) upon receipt of notification, including in (iv), take reasonable and appropriate steps to stop and remedy the unauthorized processing;

2. GENERAL DESCRIPTION

While the United States and the European Union share the goal of enhancing privacy protection, the United States takes a different approach to privacy than that taken by the European Union. The United States uses a sectoral approach that relies on a combination of legislation, regulation and self-regulation.

Given these differences and in order to provide organizations in the United States with a reliable mechanism for transfers of personal data to the United States from the European Union, while ensuring that EU data subjects continue to benefit from the effective safeguards and protection required by European law with respect to the processing of their personal data when they have been transferred to non-EU countries, the Department of Commerce issues these Privacy Shield Principles, including the Supplementary Principles (collectively “the Principles”) under its statutory authority to encourage, promote and develop international trade (15 USC § 1512). The Principles were developed in consultation with the European Commission and with industry and other interested parties to facilitate trade and commerce between the United States and the European Union. They are intended to be used only by organizations in the United States that receive personal data from the European Union in order to qualify for the Privacy Shield and, therefore, benefit from the European Commission’s adequacy decision.1 The Principles do not affect the application of national provisions implementing Directive 95/46/EC (“the Directive”) that apply to the processing of personal data in the Member States.

2. In order to rely on the Privacy Shield to effect transfers of personal data from the EU, an organization must self-certify its adherence to the Principles to the Department of Commerce (or its designee) (“the Department”). While decisions by organizations to join the Privacy Shield are entirely voluntary, actual compliance is mandatory: organizations that self-certify with the Department and publicly declare their commitment to adhere to the Principles must fully comply with the Principles. To join the Privacy Shield, an organization must (a) be subject to the investigatory and enforcement powers of the Federal Trade Commission (the “FTC”), the Department of Transportation or another statutory body that effectively ensures compliance with the Principles (other U.S. statutory bodies recognized by the EU may be included as an annex in the future); (b) publicly declare its commitment to comply with the Principles; (c) publicly disclose its privacy policies in accordance with these Principles; and (d) fully implement them. An organization’s failure to comply is enforceable under Section 5 of the Federal Trade Commission Act Prohibiting Unfair and Deceptive Acts in or Affecting Commerce (15 USC § 45 (a)) or other laws or regulations prohibiting such acts.

3. The Department of Commerce will maintain and make publicly available an authoritative list of U.S. organizations that have self-certified with the Department and declared their commitment to adhere to the Principles (“the Privacy Shield List”). Privacy Shield benefits are guaranteed from the date the Department places the organization on the Privacy Shield List. The Department will remove an organization from the Privacy Shield List if it voluntarily withdraws from the Privacy Shield or if it fails to complete its annual recertification with the Department. Removal of an organization from the Privacy Shield List means that it can no longer benefit from the European Commission’s decision on its suitability to receive personal information from the EU. The organization must continue to apply the Principles to personal information it received while participating in the Privacy Shield and affirm to the Department annually its commitment to do so for as long as it retains such information; otherwise, the organization must return or delete the information or provide “adequate” protection for the information by another authorized means. The Department will also remove from the Privacy Shield List those organizations that have persistently failed to comply with the Principles; these organizations do not qualify for Privacy Shield benefits and must return or delete the personal information they received under the Privacy Shield. the organization must return or delete the information or provide “adequate” protection for the information by another authorized means. The Department will also remove from the Privacy Shield List those organizations that have persistently failed to comply with the Principles; these organizations do not qualify for Privacy Shield benefits and must return or delete the personal information they received under the Privacy Shield. the organization must return or delete the information or provide “adequate” protection for the information by another authorized means. The Department will also remove from the Privacy Shield List those organizations that have persistently failed to comply with the Principles; these organizations do not qualify for Privacy Shield benefits and must return or delete the personal information they received under the Privacy Shield.

4. The Department will also maintain and make publicly available an authoritative registry of U.S. organizations that had previously self-certified to the Department, but have been removed from the Privacy Shield List. The Department will provide a clear warning that these organizations do not participate in the Privacy Shield; that removal from the Privacy Shield List means that such organizations cannot claim to be Privacy Shield compliant and should avoid any misleading statements or practices implying that they participate in the Privacy Shield; and that such organizations are no longer eligible to benefit from the European Commission’s adequacy decision that would allow such organizations to receive personal information from the EU.

5. Adherence to these Principles may be limited: (a) to the extent necessary to meet national security, public interest or law enforcement requirements; (b) by law, government regulation or case law creating conflicting obligations or explicit authorizations, provided that, in exercising such authorization, an organization can demonstrate that its non-compliance with the Principles is limited to the extent necessary to meet the overriding legitimate interests promoted by such authorization; or (c) if the effect of the Directive or Member State law is to allow exceptions or derogations, provided that such exceptions or derogations apply in comparable contexts. Consistent with the objective of enhancing privacy protection, organizations should strive to implement these Principles in a comprehensive and transparent manner. including indicating in their privacy policies where exceptions to the Principles permitted by (b) above will apply on a regular basis. For the same reason, where choice is permitted under the Principles and/or U.S. law, organizations are expected to opt for higher protection whenever possible.

6. Organizations are required to apply the Principles to all personal data transferred pursuant to the Privacy Shield after entering the Privacy Shield. An organization that chooses to extend the benefits of the Privacy Shield to human resources personal information transferred from the EU for use in the context of an employment relationship should indicate this when self-certifying to the Department and comply with the requirements set out in the Supplementary Principle on Self-Certification.

7. U.S. law will apply to questions of interpretation and enforcement of the relevant Privacy Shield Principles and policies by Privacy Shield organizations, except where such organizations have committed to cooperate with European data protection authorities (“DPAs”). Unless otherwise stated, all provisions of the Principles apply where relevant.

8. Definitions:

A. “Personal data” and “personal information” are data about an identified or identifiable individual that are within the scope of the Directive, received by an organization in the United States of the European Union and recorded in any form.

B. “Processing” of Personal Data means any operation or set of operations which is performed on Personal Data, whether or not by automated means, such as collection, recording, recording, organization, storage, adaptation or alteration, retrieval, consultation, use, disclosure. or dissemination and erasure or destruction.

C. “Controller” means a person or organization that, alone or jointly with others, determines the purposes and means of the processing of personal data.

9. The effective date of the Principles is the date of final approval of the European Commission’s adequacy determination.

10. Provided that the Commission Decision on the adequacy of protection provided by the EU-US Privacy Shield shall apply to Iceland. Provided that the Commission Decision on the adequacy of protection provided by the EU-US Privacy Shield applies to Iceland, Liechtenstein and Norway, the Privacy Shield Package will cover both the European Union and these three countries. Accordingly, references to the EU and its member states shall be construed to include Iceland, Liechtenstein and Norway.

3. REMEDY, COMPLIANCE AND LIABILITY

a. Effective privacy protection should include robust mechanisms to ensure compliance with the Principles, remedies for individuals who are affected by non-compliance with the Principles, and consequences for the organization when the Principles are not followed. At a minimum, such mechanisms should include:
i. readily available independent recourse mechanisms through which each individual’s complaints and disputes are promptly investigated and resolved at no cost to the individual and with reference to the Principles, and damages are awarded where provided for by applicable law or private sector initiatives;
ii. monitoring procedures to verify that the certifications and assertions that organizations make about their privacy practices are true and that privacy practices have been implemented as presented and, in particular, with respect to instances of non-compliance; and
iii. Obligations to remedy problems arising from non-compliance with the Principles by organizations that announce their adherence to them and the consequences for such organizations. Sanctions should be sufficiently stringent to ensure compliance by organizations.

yes. Organizations and their selected independent recourse mechanisms shall respond promptly to inquiries and requests from the Department for information related to the Privacy Shield. All organizations must respond promptly to complaints about compliance with the Principles referred by EU Member State authorities through the Department. Organizations that have chosen to cooperate with DPAs, including organizations that process human resources data, should respond directly to those authorities with respect to the investigation and resolution of complaints.

C. Organizations are required to arbitrate complaints and follow the terms set forth in Annex I, provided that an individual has invoked binding arbitration by notifying the organization in question and following the procedures and subject to the conditions set forth in Annex I.

re. In the context of a onward transfer, a Privacy Shield organization has responsibility for the processing of personal information it receives under the Privacy Shield and subsequently transfers it to a third party acting as an agent on its behalf. The Privacy Shield organization will remain liable under the Principles if its agent processes such personal information in a manner inconsistent with the Principles, unless the organization demonstrates that it is not responsible for the event that gave rise to the harm.

my. When an organization becomes subject to an FTC or court order based on noncompliance, the organization must make public any Privacy Shield-related section of any compliance report or assessment submitted to the FTC, to the extent consistent with confidentiality requirements. The Department has established a dedicated point of contact for DPAs for any compliance issues by Privacy Shield organizations. The FTC will give priority consideration to referrals for non-compliance with the Department’s Principles and DPAs, and will exchange information on referrals with referring state authorities in a timely manner, subject to existing confidentiality restrictions.

In accordance with the Privacy Shield Principles, Gadget Advisor is committed to resolving complaints about our collection or use of your personal information. Individuals in the European Union who have inquiries or complaints regarding our Privacy Shield policy should first contact Gadget Advisor.
