Daylight Forensic & Advisory
Receives Safe Harbor Certification
New York August 9, 2007 -- Daylight Forensic & Advisory LLC, a leading international regulatory and investigative consulting firm, today announced that it has received Safe Harbor Certification from the U.S. Department of Commerce.
Daylights Safe Harbor Certification will now allow the firm to transfer personal data outside the E.U., expediting the flow of information between European clients and Daylights offices in London and the United States. The certification recognizes that Daylights privacy and data-security policies provide "adequate protection" for personal data from its European clients as required by the European Union's Directive on Data Protection.
Daylights staff and technical resources in New York, Washington and Miami will be on call to assist European clients with urgent or complex requirements.
Receiving our Safe Harbor Certification from the Commerce Department will enhance our capabilities to better serve our European clients by tapping into the many resources we have available in the United States, said Ellen Zimiles, Daylights co-founder and CEO. Under the new Federal Rules of Civil Procedure we will now be able to assist our clients with time sensitive issues such as e-discovery requests.
Joseph Spinelli, Daylights co-founder and COO, added: Rigid security controls and a code of conduct that respects an individuals personal information are the foundation of all our client engagements. The controls and policies we have set in place either meet or exceed all of the EUs requirements. It is our belief that in order to best serve our clients we as a firm need to meet or exceed any requirements the market requires.
