Schrems II and the Privacy Shield ruling
What you need to do with regards to international data transfers
The regulatory framework for international data transfers between the European Union and the United States has been overturned following the Schrems II ruling, which declared the Privacy Shield invalid and there is ambiguity with regards to standard contract clauses, because they’re still valid…sometimes.
The Schrems II ruling we’ve all heard so much about has led to confusion and no shortage of panic. There simply isn’t sufficient protection to prevent state surveillance, and also, the courts do not have the power to hold entities accountable for ensuring key data protection measures are in place, and this has ramifications for your company when it comes to storing and transferring data,
In this webinar, we look in detail at what this means for companies and their international data transfers and how they must act to comply with the new regulations.
What topics are we going to discuss?
- What is the Schrems II judgment?
- What is it and why has the Privacy Shield been ruled invalid?
- How does the invalidity of the Privacy Shield affect my company's international data transfers?
- What should my company do?
- How long do I have to implement the changes required by the Schrems II judgment?
- What happens if my company does not comply with the Schrems II ruling?
