Webinar FAQ 4: Can I rely on statements by US and other non-EEA/Equivalency Country cloud providers that their Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) enable lawful data transfer under Schrems II?
No. Data controllers have an affirmative obligation to ensure that SCCs are augmented with “supplementary measures” that ensure protection equivalent to EU data protection laws. This obligation remains the sole obligation of a data controller under Schrems II unless it is expressly assumed by a cloud provider, in which case it becomes a shared responsibility of the parties.
