EU and US begin second annual review of Privacy Shield

EU and US officials have begun the second annual review of the Privacy Shield, an important framework that facilitates the free flow of personal data across the Atlantic for businesses.

The review will focus on the commercial aspects, notably on questions related to the oversight and enforcement of the Shield, and developments concerning the collection of personal data by US authorities for purposes of law enforcement or national security. The European Commission will publish its conclusions in a report end of November.
