Panel Discussion – Codes of Conduct – A Success Factor for GDPR and Businesses
summary
Codes of conduct under GDPR aim to let businesses demonstrate compliance, speed sector-specific implementation, and ease B2B due diligence; examples include the EU Cloud Code of Conduct with 200 calls over two years, mandatory independent monitoring and features like initial checks and whistleblowing. Article 46 use can facilitate third‑country transfers without case‑by‑case approvals. Pain points are time and cost (one national insurance code took eight years) and SME feasibility, so monitoring by design and clear, practical provisions determine whether a code is approvable.
