At long last, the new standard contractual clause (SCCs) are here!
As we reported last year, the invalidation of the EU-U.S. Privacy Shield on July 16, 2020 is forcing the hand of U.S. companies which access the personal data of EU residents to find a new, lawful mechanism by which to do so in accordance with EU data protection laws. One such alternative – the use of the EU’s standard contractual clauses (SCCs) (a/k/a “Model Clauses”) – was recently bolstered by much-needed proposed updates to the clauses themselves.
