Done at Brussels, 23 July 2007 and at Washington, 26 July 2007. (signatures) U.S. Letter to EU In response to the inquiry of the European Union and to reiterate the importance that the United States government places on the protection of individual privacy, this letter is intended to explain how the United States Department of Homeland Security (DHS) handles the collection, use and storage of Passenger Name Records (PNR). None of the policies articulated herein create or confer any right or benefit on any person or party, private or public, nor any remedy other than that specified in the Agreement between the U.S. and the EU on the processing and transfer of PNR by air carriers to DHS done on the 26th of July, 2007 (the „Agreement”). Instead, this letter provides the assurances and reflectsthepolicieswhichDHS appliestoPNR data derived fromflightsbetweentheU.S.andEuropeanUnion(EU PNR) under U.S. law. I. Purpose for which PNR is used DHS uses EU PNR strictly for the purpose of preventing and combating: (1) terrorism and related crimes; (2) other serious crimes, including organized crime, that are transnational in nature; and (3) flight from warrants or custody for crimes described above. PNR may be used where necessary for the protection of the vital interests of the data subject or other persons, or in any criminal judicial proceedings, or as otherwise required by law. DHS will advise the EU regarding the passage of any U.S. legislation which materially affects the statements made in this letter. II. Sharing of PNR DHS shares EU PNR data only for the purposes named in article I. DHS treats EU PNR data as sensitive and confidential in accordance with U.S. laws and, at its discretion, provides PNR data only to other domestic government authorities with law enforcement, public security, or counterterrorism functions, in support of counterterrorism, transnational crime and public security related cases (including threats, flights, individuals and routes of concern) they are examining or investigating, according to law, and pursuant to written understandings and U.S. law on the exchange of information between U.S. government authorities. Access shall be strictly and carefully limited to the cases described above in proportion to the nature of the case. EU PNR data is only exchanged with other government authorities in third countries after consideration of the recipient’s intended use(s) and ability to protect the information. Apart from emergency circumstances, any such exchange of data occurs pursuant to express understandings between the parties that incorporate data privacy protections comparable to those applied to EU PNR by DHS, as described in the second paragraph of this article. III. Types of Information Collected Most data elements contained in PNR data can be obtained by DHS upon examining an individual’s airline ticket and other travel documents pursuant to its normal border control authority, but the ability to receive this data electronically significantly enhances DHS’s ability to focus its resources on high risk concerns, thereby facilitating and safeguarding bona fide travel. Types of EU PNR Collected:
