3. Standard Contractual Clauses
The European Commission has adopted Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) that may provide appropriate safeguards for certain international transfers of personal data under GDPR Article 46.
Where SCCs are applicable, the relevant parties must enter into a binding agreement incorporating the appropriate official clauses, completed annexes, and required contractual specifications.
The applicable transfer mechanism depends on the circumstances of the transfer, the parties involved, and the relevant data protection requirements.
The official European Commission SCCs are available below.
