Dynatrace completed Data Privacy Framework self-certification

In trans-Atlantic and global business relationships, the privacy frameworks and regulations in various regions must be aligned to allow efficient collaboration between enterprises and other involved institutions. To enable participating organizations to meet the EU requirements for transferring personal data to the U.S., the Data Privacy Framework (DPF) is designed to serve as an adequate data transfer mechanism under the GDPR.

“Data Privacy Framework Program (The EU-U.S. DPF, UK Extension to the EU-U.S. DPF, and Swiss-U.S. DPF) was respectively developed by the U.S. Department of Commerce and the European Commission, United Kingdom (UK) Government, and Swiss Federal Administration to provide U.S. organizations with reliable mechanisms for personal data transfers to the United States from the European Economic Area (EEA), UK, and Switzerland while ensuring data protection that is consistent with EU, UK, and Swiss law.”

This demonstrates Dynatrace’s ongoing commitment to managing all EU Personal Data in compliance with the requirements of the DPF.
