Following the judgment of the Court of Justice of the European Union in Case C-311/18 Data Protection Commissioner v Facebook Ireland Ltd (Schrems II), the EDPB has adopted a “Frequently Asked Questions” document to provide initial clarification and give preliminary guidance to stakeholders on the use of legal instruments for the transfer of personal data to third countries, including the US.

The EDPB says that the document will be developed and complemented, along with further guidance, as the EDPB continues to examine and assess the judgment of the CJEU. To access the document, click here.
