Solution

C. The Safe Harbor Act describes the cooperative effort between the United States and Europe to exchange information about European citizens between European firms and North American parent corporations.

Answer B is incorrect because there is no law known as the Demar Act. Answer D is incorrect because the name of the act is not Safety Shield
