Wijziging van de Wet bescherming persoonsgegevens naar aanleiding van de uitspraak van het Hof van Justitie van de Europese Unie van 6 oktober 2015 (C-362/14) inzake de Veiligehavenbeginselen

Stage submittedUpdated 5mo ago

This legislative proposal aims to amend the Dutch Personal Data Protection Act following a 2015 ruling by the Court of Justice of the European Union. It addresses the legal invalidity of the 'Safe Harbor' framework, which previously allowed the transfer of personal data from the EU to the United States. This change affects organizations and businesses that transfer personal data to the US, requiring them to adopt new legal mechanisms to ensure data protection and privacy for EU citizens.
