You can find more information, including routine uses permitted by the Privacy Act, in the Commission’s privacy policy, at https://www.ftc.gov/ftc/privacy.htm. Analysis of Proposed Consent Order To Aid Public Comment The Federal Trade Commission (‘‘FTC’’ or ‘‘Commission’’) has accepted, subject to final approval, a consent agreement applicable to Pinger, Inc. (‘‘Pinger’’). The proposed consent order has been placed on the public record for thirty (30) days for receipt of comments by interested persons. Comments received during this period will become part of the public record. After thirty days, the Commission will again review the agreement and the comments received, and will decide whether it should withdraw from the agreement and take appropriate action or make final the agreement’s proposed order. This matter concerns alleged false or misleading representations that Pinger made to consumers concerning its participation in the Safe Harbor privacy frameworks agreed upon by the U.S. and the European Union (‘‘EU’’) and the U.S. VerDate Sep<11>2014 16:48 Aug 21, 2015 Jkt 235001 and Switzerland (collectively, ‘‘Safe Harbor Frameworks’’). The Safe Harbor Frameworks allow U.S. companies to transfer data outside the EU and Switzerland consistent with EU and Swiss law. To join the Safe Harbor Frameworks, a company must selfcertify to the U.S. Department of Commerce (‘‘Commerce’’) that it complies with a set of principles and related requirements that have been deemed by the European Commission and Switzerland as providing ‘‘adequate’’ privacy protection. These principles include notice, choice, onward transfer, security, data integrity, access, and enforcement. Commerce maintains a public Web site, www.export.gov/safeharbor, where it posts the names of companies that have self-certified to the Safe Harbor Frameworks. The listing of companies indicates whether their self-certification is ‘‘current’’ or ‘‘not current.’’ Companies are required to re-certify every year in order to retain their status as ‘‘current’’ members of the Safe Harbor Frameworks. Pinger develops apps for mobile phones and tablets. According to the Commission’s complaint, Pinger has set forth on its Web site, www.pinger.com/ content/company/privacypolicy.html, privacy policies and statements about its practices, including statements related to its participation in the Safe Harbor Frameworks. The Commission’s complaint alleges that Pinger falsely represented that it was a ‘‘current’’’ participant in the Safe Harbor Frameworks when, in fact, from March 2014 until April 2015, Pinger was not a ‘‘current’’’ participant in the Safe Harbor Frameworks. The Commission’s complaint alleges that in March 2011, Pinger submitted its selfcertification to the Safe Harbor Frameworks. Pinger did not renew its self-certification in March 2014 and Commerce subsequently updated Pinger’s status to ‘‘not current’’ on its public Web site. In May 2015, Pinger recertified with Commerce and is now a current participant in the Safe Harbor Frameworks. Part I of the proposed order prohibits Pinger from making misrepresentations about its membership in any privacy or security program sponsored by the government or any other self-regulatory or standard-setting organization, including, but not limited to, the U.S.EU Safe Harbor Framework and the U.S.-Swiss Safe Harbor Framework. Parts II through VI of the proposed order are reporting and compliance provisions. Part II requires Pinger to retain documents relating to its compliance with the order for a five- PO 00000 Frm 00069 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 year period. Part III requires dissemination of the order now and in the future to persons with responsibilities relating to the subject matter of the order. Part IV ensures notification to the FTC of changes in corporate status. Part V mandates that Pinger submit an initial compliance report to the FTC, and make available to the FTC subsequent reports. Part VI is a provision ‘‘sunsetting’’ the order after twenty (20) years, with certain exceptions. The purpose of this analysis is to facilitate public comment on the proposed order. It is not intended to constitute an official interpretation of the proposed complaint or order or to modify the order’s terms in any way. By direction of the Commission. Donald S. Clark Secretary.

Analysis of Proposed Consent Order To Aid Public Comment

    The Federal Trade Commission (``FTC'' or ``Commission'') has 
accepted, subject to final approval, a consent agreement applicable to 
One Industries Corp. (``One Industries'').
    The proposed consent order has been placed on the public record for 
thirty (30) days for receipt of comments by interested persons. 
Comments received during this period will become part of the public 
record. After thirty (30) days, the Commission will again review the 
agreement and the comments received, and will decide whether it should 
withdraw from the agreement and take appropriate action or make final 
the agreement's proposed order.
    This matter concerns alleged false or misleading representations 
that One Industries made to consumers concerning its participation in 
the Safe Harbor privacy framework agreed upon by the U.S. and the 
European Union (``EU'') (``U.S.-EU Safe Harbor Framework'' or ``Safe 
Harbor Framework''). The Safe Harbor Framework allows U.S. companies to 
transfer data outside the EU consistent with EU law. To join the Safe 
Harbor Framework, a company must self-certify to the U.S. Department of 
Commerce (``Commerce'') that it complies with a set of principles and 
related requirements that have been deemed by the European Commission 
as providing ``adequate'' privacy protection. These principles include 
notice, choice, onward transfer, security, data integrity, access, and 
enforcement. Commerce maintains a public Web site, www.export.gov/safeharbor, where it posts the names of companies that have self-
certified to the Safe Harbor Framework. The listing of companies 
indicates whether their self-certification is ``current'' or ``not 
current.'' Companies are required to re-certify every year in order to 
retain their status as ``current'' members of the Safe Harbor 
Framework.
    One Industries sells of motocross-related gear, graphic kits, and 
clothing worldwide. According to the Commission's complaint, since at 
least January 2015, One Industries Corp. set forth on its Web site, 
https://oneindustries.com/privacy, privacy policies and statements about 
its practices, including statements related to its participation in the 
U.S.-EU Safe Harbor Framework.

[[Page 51266]]

    The Commission's complaint alleges that One Industries Corp. 
falsely represented that it was a participant in the U.S.-EU Safe 
Harbor Framework when, in fact, One Industries Corp. was never a 
participant in the Safe Harbor Framework. Commerce has never included 
the company on its public Web site.
    Part I of the proposed order prohibits One Industries Corp. from 
making misrepresentations about its membership in any privacy or 
security program sponsored by the government or any other self-
regulatory or standard-setting organization, including, but not limited 
to, the U.S.-EU Safe Harbor Framework and the U.S.-Swiss Safe Harbor 
Framework.
    Parts II through VI of the proposed order are reporting and 
compliance provisions. Part II requires One Industries Corp. to retain 
documents relating to its compliance with the Order for a five-year 
period. Part III requires dissemination of the order now and in the 
future to persons with responsibilities relating to the subject matter 
of the order. Part IV ensures the notification to the FTC of changes in
