EDPB: Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) concerning the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework (DPF)

On 16 July 2024, The European Data Protection Board (EDPB) adopted two Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) documents concerning the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework (DPF), aimed at providing more clarification on the functioning of the DPF.

The FAQ for individuals provides information on the functioning of the DPF: how to benefit from it, how to lodge a complaint and how this complaint will be handled.

Likewise, the FAQ for businesses explains which U.S. companies are eligible to join the DPF: what to do before transferring personal data to a company in the U.S. which is DPF-certified, and where to find further guidance.
