Data Protection Commissioner v Facebook Ireland and Maximillian Schrems

Data Protection Commissioner v Facebook Ireland and Maximillian Schrems

Judgment of the Court of Justice of the European Union in Case C-311/18.

The Court of Justice has invalidated Decision 2016/1250 on the adequacy of the protection provided by the EU-US Data Protection Shield. However, of considerable practical significance, it considered that Commission Decision 2010/87 on standard contractual clauses for the transfer of personal data to processors established in third countries is valid.
