The GDPR imposes restrictions on the transfer of personal data outside the European Union, to third countries or international organisations.
These restrictions are in place to ensure that the level of protection of individuals afforded by the GDPR is not undermined.
In brief When can personal data be transferred outside the European Union?
Personal data may only be transferred outside of the EU in compliance with the conditions for transfer set out in Chapter V of the GDPR.
What about transfers on the basis of a Commission decision?
Transfers may be made where the Commission has decided that a third country, a territory or one or more specific sectors in the third country, or an international organisation ensures an adequate level of protection.
ShoeAid will not transfer any of your data outside of the European Union without your consent which will be requested in writing from the said individual or group of individuals before being transferred.
