Jeitosa Group International Certifies for Safe Harbor, Enhancing Ability to Support the Needs of Multinational Clients

San Francisco, CA – December 1, 2009 – Jeitosa Group International, a global human resources and systems consultancy, announced today its certification under the Safe Harbor Framework between the United States Department of Commerce and the European Commission with respect to personal data transferred from Europe to the United States.

The U.S. Department of Commerce developed the Safe Harbor framework working closely with the European Commission to meet the requirements on data protection mandated by the EU Data Protection Directive (95/46/EC). The directive prohibits the transfer of personal data to non-European Union nations that do not meet European standards for data and privacy protection.

“As our business grows, we want to ensure that we are in compliance with both U.S. and European guidelines for data privacy practices. We take the privacy our client’s information very seriously and view this certification as a critical step in illustrating that dedication both in the U.S. and abroad,” stated Karen Beaman, CEO and Founder of Jeitosa Group.

Safe Harbor certification provides assurance to European organizations and individuals that Jeitosa not only understands the Safe Harbor Framework, but also has taken the steps required to implement appropriate protection for their transferred data.  In fact, Jeitosa goes well beyond what is required for Safe Harbor, by applying the program’s privacy principles to its handling of all personal data, regardless of geographic origin.  This enhanced sensitivity to privacy concerns enables Jeitosa, with their team of Transnational Experts across the globe, to help their clients develop effective data privacy strategies and policies.

Jeitosa’s compliance with the Safe Harbor framework and its privacy policy are further detailed on the company’s website at http://www.jeitosa.com/privacy.  To view Jeitosa’s certification online and to learn more about the Safe Harbor program, visit the U.S. Government’s Export Portal at http://www.export.gov/safeharbor/.
