EU-US Privacy Shield: The EU-US Privacy Shield was a framework designed to ensure compliance with EU data protection requirements when transferring personal data from the European Union to the United States. However, it’s important to note that the Privacy Shield was invalidated by the Court of Justice of the European Union (CJEU) in July 2020. Organizations previously relying on this framework now have to find alternative mechanisms, such as Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs), for transatlantic data transfers that meet EU data protection standards.
