On this episode of Serious Privacy, Paul Breitbarth of Catawiki and Dr. K Royal of Outschool discuss the 10-7 series of deliberately machinated and long-awaited political events surrounding the EU-US data transfer mechanism that is intended to replace the Privacy Shield, invalidated under Schrems II back in 2020 - the “thingie.” Plus, the UK-US joint statement on adequacy consideration. These various events comprise the Executive Order (the Fact sheet along with the information on the European Commission site), the Department of Commerce statement, the Department of Justice from the Office of the Attorney General on the Data Protection review Board final rule, and the NOYB’s response. As expected, and TrustArc predicted, those companies who remained in the Privacy Shield will have a transition plan.
