Commission conducting ‘preparatory work’ should ECJ invalidate privacy shield

The European Commission is preparing for the eventuality that the European Court of Justice (ECJ) may invalidate the EU-US data transfer agreement, known as the Privacy Shield, Justice Commissioner Didier Reynders has said.

“We don’t have one plan, but we have some ideas about the different ways to give an answer, following the scope of the decision of the court,” he added, keeping his cards close to his chest, however, on the specifics of how the Commission would react to a legal invalidation of the Privacy Shield.
