The European Commission's Data Protection Directive (95/46/EC) only permits the transfer of personal data to non-European Union countries under certain defined standards. At present, only 53 companies, including Align, have been granted approval on BCRs. Roger E. George, Align Technology Vice President and General Counsel, said, "We have high standards for our business practices as reflected in our privacy program and now recognized by the European Data Protection Authorities."
