TechLaw10: Eric Sinrod & Jonathan Armstrong on Data Transfer & Data Protection Framework

In this edition of TechLaw10, Jonathan Armstrong talks to Attorney and Professor Eric Sinrod from his home in California. They look at the proposed new Data Protection Framework and its chances of success. Will the new scheme make transferring data from the EU to the US easier? And will the UK adopt a similar scheme?

Jonathan looks at the history of the prior Safe Harbor and Privacy Shield schemes and the challenges Max Schrems brought.

Jonathan examines the likely areas of contention in the new scheme, including the proposed new court and whether it might stand up to a challenge. He also considers likely timeframes and practical tips for businesses.

Eric examines the changes made by the Biden administration and whether they might be meaningful. He also examines the concerns expressed by Schrems and NOYB and whether they are well-founded. What will happen if the new US regime seeks to limit class actions and legal representation?

Data Transfers from EU/UK to US


Jonathan Armstrong and Tom Fox return for another episode of Life with GDPR. In this episode, we take up the proposed agreement for data transfers from the EU (and UK) to the US. Some of the issues we consider in the myriad of questions around this latest version of Privacy Shield include:
1.     Is this simply an agreement to agree?
2.     Who will populate the independent court review in the US?
3.     Will US spy agencies ever comply?
4.     Will there be a real deal by the end of 2022?
5.     Is this simply a temporary solution.
