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, 
http://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 
corporate status. Part V mandates that One Industries Corp. 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.
