• Absent an adequacy decision, the General Data Protection Regulation permits a transfer where the controller or processor provides appropriate safeguards with enforceable data subject rights and effective legal remedies, which may take the form of binding corporate rules, standard contractual clauses, approved codes of conduct or approved certification mechanisms. fact in context
• The General Data Protection Regulation gives a data subject the right not to be subject to a decision based solely on automated processing, including profiling, that produces legal effects or similarly significantly affects them, and requires at minimum a right to human intervention, to express a view and to contest the decision where an exception applies. fact in context
• The General Data Protection Regulation allows a transfer of personal data to a third country or international organisation only where the conditions of Chapter V are met, including for onward transfers, so that the level of protection guaranteed by the Regulation is not undermined. fact in context
• The General Data Protection Regulation provides that a judgment of a third-country court or a decision of a third-country administrative authority requiring a controller or processor to transfer or disclose personal data is only recognisable or enforceable if it is based on an international agreement in force between that country and the European Union or a Member State. fact in context
