Exam CIPP-E topic 1 question 65 discussion

The rights answer is D, because under the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and the guidelines provided by the European Data Protection Board (EDPB), when a company located outside the European Economic Area (EEA) imports personal data from an organization within the EEA using standard contractual clauses (SCCs), it must ensure that it can comply with the obligations set out in those clauses. This includes ensuring that local laws in the importing country do not prevent the company from fulfilling its contractual obligations under the SCCs

D. Ensure that local laws do not impede the company from meeting its contractual obligations. GDPR Article Reference: Article 46(1): Transfers of personal data to a third country or an international organization may take place where the controller or processor has provided appropriate safeguards, and on condition that enforceable data subject rights and effective legal remedies for data subjects are available. Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs): These require the importing company to ensure that local laws do not prevent it from fulfilling its obligations under the SCCs, thereby ensuring that the transferred data is adequately protected.
