Cross-Border Data and Transfers
Cross-border data transfers are a flashpoint in global privacy law, particularly between the EU and U.S. Mechanisms like the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework and Standard Contractual Clauses face ongoing scrutiny by courts and regulators as global corporate operations must sync with divergent national regulatory environments. This legal uncertainty has pushed companies to adopt more rigorous transfer impact assessments and contractual safeguards. This page tracks regulatory developments, enforcement actions, and emerging requirements for international data flows.
