The global privacy and data protection framework continues to grow in complexity. New laws in China and Brazil, in addition to GDPR in Europe and a growing list of state privacy laws in the U.S., have raised the bar for businesses trying to move data across borders. The fallout from the European Court of Justice decision in the Schrems II case, as well as the slow pace of adequacy determinations and review by the European Commission, leave businesses with unmitigated risks, transaction costs and legal uncertainty. In this discussion, partners from Goodwin’s global Data, Privacy and Cybersecurity team, based in London, Boston and New York discuss practical solutions to crossborder challenges.
