Develop Additional Guarantees For Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCS)
According to the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), standard contractual clauses (SCCs) ensuring appropriate data protection safeguards can be used as grounds for data transfers from the EU to third countries.
This includes standard contractual clauses– that have been “pre-approved” by the European Commission.
2B Advice data protection and legal experts bring you the peace of mind that you are handling important data processing and data transfers in accordance with appropriate regulations such as the GDPR.
Oftentimes, the “pre-approved” SCCs are not sufficient for your particular business and require drafting of additional guarantees. Work with 2B Advice’s team of experts to tailor standard contractual clauses (SCC) to your business needs.
