This provision establishes Salesforce's legal framework for cross-border data transfers from European jurisdictions to the United States, creating accountability mechanisms through DPF certification that include liability for onward transfers to third parties. The certification satisfies regulatory requirements under EU and UK data protection law that would otherwise restrict such transfers.
EU, Swiss, and UK data subjects whose data is transferred to the US under the DPF have enforceable rights, including access to a free arbitration mechanism if their complaints are not resolved, backed by US FTC oversight.

"Salesforce commits to comply with the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework, the Swiss-U.S. Data Privacy Framework, and the UK Extension to the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework (collectively, the "DPF") and certifies its adherence to the DPF Principles as set forth by the U.S. Department of Commerce, including the onward transfer liability provision, regarding the processing of your Personal Data transferred to the U.S. in reliance on the DPF.— Excerpt from Salesforce's Salesforce Privacy Statement
