TRUSTe LLC (“TRUSTe”), a subsidiary of TrustArc Inc (“TrustArc”), offers a set of privacy assurance programs that enable organizations that collect or process personal information to demonstrate responsible data collection and processing practices consistent with regulatory expectations and external standards for privacy accountability. The programs are developed using the standards outlined in the TrustArc Privacy & Data Governance (“P&DG”) Framework (the “Framework”) and the unique requirements of the regulatory standard upon which a certain program is based.

The Framework is based upon recognized laws and regulatory standards, such as the OECD Privacy Guidelines, the APEC Privacy Framework, the EU General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”). ISO 27001, the U.S. Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (“HIPAA”), and other privacy laws and regulations globally.
