Explanation

The U.S.-EU Safe Harbor Framework was a program developed by the U.S. Department of Commerce in agreement with the European Commission to allow U.S. companies to comply with the EU's stricter data privacy directives when transferring personal data from Europe to the United States. GLBA (A) governs financial data privacy in the U.S., HIPAA (B) governs healthcare data in the U.S., and SOX (D) addresses financial reporting and corporate accountability - none of these bridge U.S.-EU privacy law differences.
