Abstract

The Court of Justice of the European Union has marked a new milestone in the data protection field with its judgment of 16 July of 2020, the Schrems II case. This pronouncement has invalidated the Privacy Shield, the framework that allowed cross-border data transfers between the European Union and United States of America, which has caused great uncertainty in the North American business panorama. Moreover, the Court examined the Decision 2010/87/EU on Standard Contractual Clauses declaring its validity and resolving existing doubts about its use for international data transfers
