This is important news for companies that already use such a model contract. These companies should ensure that within 18 months their current contracts are brought into line with this new model contract.

Privacy Compliance
Privacy is an issue that is growing in size, complexity and relevance. When you process personal data, you are obliged to safeguard the privacy of these individuals. But do you know which privacy regulations and principles your data processing must comply with? And are you aware of the risks involved in data processing?
A line through the Privacy Shield
7 October 2020 - The European Court of Justice has declared the Privacy Shield invalid. The Privacy Shield was a basis for the exchange of personal data between organisations in the European Union and the United States. Because this agreement has been declared invalid by the Court of Justice, it has become less easy for European organisations to have personal data processed in the United States.
