Dear European Data Protection Supervisor,

Thank you very much for your reply.

I would like to clarify that this request refers explicitly to documents held by the EDPS that address the issue of third country (non-EU/EEA) compliance with the European Essential Guarantees, regardless of their nature or origin (see my initial request), especially as the EDPS itself asked EUIs to carry out case-by-case Transfer Impact Assessments (TIAs) in its 'Strategy for Union institutions, offices, bodies and agencies to comply with the ‘Schrems II’ Ruling' dated 29 October 2020.
In particular, the EDPS required EUIs to decide as to whether it is possible to continue the transfers identified in the mapping exercise and report by 15 November 2020 at the latest, on specific risks and gaps they identified during this mapping exercise (see, page 8 of the abovementioned Strategy).

Furthermore, the EDPS expressly stated it "will provide a list of preliminary questions for EUI controllers" on TIAs (loc. cit.).

I thus kindly request that any such list of questions, expert report, legal opinion, evaluation matrix, checklist or other document on the matter of EEG compliance be provided within the statutory term.

Yours sincerely,

Enrique Broenstein

European Data Protection Supervisor, Supervisor Europeo de Protección de Datos

Dear Mr Broenstein,

 

We are writing you concerning your access to documents request case number
2020-1092. In accordance with Article 7(1) of Regulation (EC) No 1049/2001
regarding public access to European Parliament, Council and Commission
documents, you are entitled to receive a reply within 15 working days.
However, due to the amount of documents, the EDPS will not be in a
position to respond within the original time limit of 15 working days. We
have therefore decided to extend the time limit by 15 working days in
accordance with Article 7(3) of Regulation (EC) 1049/2001. You should
expect to receive a reply from the EDPS by 12 January 2021 at the latest.

 

Yours sincerely,

 

 

  EDPS Secretariat

dear Mr Cervera Navas,

Thank you very much for granting access to the above documents.

To avoid a multitude of repeated requests relating to the same issue in the future, can you already say when the EDPS will have completed its "Transfer Impact Assessments (TIAs)" in its 'Strategy for Union institutions, offices, bodies and agencies to comply with the 'Schrems II' Ruling' dated 29 October 2020 or any guidance in this regard?

Dear TSANKOV Tsanko,

Thank you for your email -- there was presumably a mistake, as you addressed this to "Ms Maes". Apart from that, I am unfortunately unable to make or receive telephone calls due to physical limitations. I would therefore kindly ask you to continue to answer my request in this way. Thank you very much!

Yours sincerely,

Enrique Broenstein

TSANKOV Tsanko, Supervisor Europeo de Protección de Datos

Dear Mr. Broenstein,

Thank you for your prompt reply to my message. I apologise, but this particular message was send to you by mistake. At the same time the message intended for you was send to another person. This was caused by the complexity of the email naming system used by AskTheEU.org.

Following your request from 25 January, I can inform you that the EDPS complied with the EDPS order implementing its 'Schrems II Strategy'. It continues to closely scrutinise its processing activities (including new ones) in terms of international transfers. The EDPS will comply in a timely manner with any subsequent requirements of the EDPS 'Schrems II Strategy', including carrying out TIAs. Unfortunately, it is not possible at this time to provide an exact commitment in terms of timing.

Kind regards
