As a partner in our London-based international Privacy & Data Protection practice, I advise companies on a range of international data and privacy compliance projects, including the implementation of global data management strategies, international data transfers and data compliance issues such as the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) or the ePrivacy directive. I am also a member of the firm's global (i) Executive Committee (ExCom) and (ii) Diversity & Inclusion leadership group.

On 22 May, the Irish Data Protection Authority published it's final decision against Meta regarding their data transfers of EU originated personal data to the US based on EU SCCs. This is a significant decision raising questions for all companies relying on EU SCCs for their data transfers to the US.

On 24th May 2023 we delivered a webinar where our experts dissected the decision and explained exactly what it means for EU-US data transfers but also its implications in the UK.
