Enhancing Transatlantic Data Flows – The Future of Privacy Shield
summary
March political leaders' agreement commits to a transatlantic Data Privacy Framework that an upcoming executive order will translate into binding U S law, promising National Security limits on government access and enabling the EU to adopt a new adequacy decision. The change explicitly aims to make standard contractual clauses easier to rely on, revive a Privacy Shield-style route, and responds to ongoing FTC enforcement of companies' prior Privacy Shield promises; timeline remains uncertain and smaller firms report high compliance costs.
