Data transfer impact assessments and Executive Order

In the last episode of Tech Law Bits for now Martin speaks about his own table topic. Co-moderator of this round will be Jessica Lee, partner at the law firm of Loeb & Loeb in New York. Our topic at the round tables and in this talk will be data transfer to the U.S. Jessica briefly introduces the content of President Biden's Executive Order and explains why this really is novel. Martin touches upon the European Data Protection Board's opinion on the Draft Implementing Decision of the European Commission on the adequate protection of personal data under the EU-US Data Privacy Framework. We will be discussing with the attendees of our round table why data transfers are crucial in technology transactions and how the issue comes into play. We will touch upon both the diligence before completion of the deal, as well as the potential migration of data post closing.
