The Irish High Court however referred the case to the Court of Justice of the European Union (#CJUE), Europe-v-Facebook said Tuesday, calling the decision a “very unexpected, but great turn,” adding that this means that Europe’s top court is going to review the #safe_harbor agreements.
It asked the CJEU whether a data protection authority such as the DPC is absolutely bound by a European Commission decision from 2000. In that decision the Commission said that personal data transferred to a third country such as the U.S. is considered adequately protected if the companies that process the data adhere to safe harbor principles.
The High Court said in its ruling that Europe-v-Facebook’s objection is really to the terms of the Safe Harbor regime rather than to the manner in which the DPC applied the regime.
