Genome Essentials has further committed to refer unresolved Privacy Shield complaints to an alternative dispute resolution provider located in the U.S. If you do not receive timely acknowledgment of your complaint from us, or if we have not resolved your complaint, please contact the dispute resolution provider free of charge at https://feedback-form.truste.com/watchdog/request. Under certain limited circumstances, E.U. or Swiss individuals may invoke binding Privacy Shield arbitration as a last resort if all other forms of dispute resolution have been unsuccessful. To learn more about this method of resolution and its availability to you, please visit https://www.privacyshield.gov/article?id=How-to-Submit-a-Complaint.

The FTC has committed to reviewing, on a priority basis, referrals alleging non-compliance with the Privacy Shield Principles received from independent dispute resolution bodies, among others. If the FTC concludes that it has reason to believe Section 5 of the Privacy Shield Principles has been violated, it may resolve the matter by seeking an administrative cease and desist order prohibiting the challenged practices or by filing a complaint in a federal district court, which if successful could result in a federal court order to same effect.
