The European Commission has approved the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework's adequacy decision, ensuring data protection for personal data transferred from the EU to the US. The framework introduces safeguards, including limited access to EU data by US intelligence services and the establishment of a Data Protection Review Court (DPRC). It complements obligations for US companies importing data from the EU, promoting collaboration and secure data flows. US companies can join by committing to privacy obligations, while EU individuals gain access to redress mechanisms. The framework facilitates transatlantic data flows under various mechanisms.
