1. SCCs ok. 2. Privacy Shield is toast, it cannot be used to legitimise transfers. 3. Businesses need to assess the regime of the destination country to ensure acceptable before exporting.
Possibly my favourite experience of many fantastic ones at OT. Great view and watched it all the way in. Unbeatable atmosphere. Also one of the best defensive performances ever. Class!

Spot on Jeanne. Would happily chip in on same basis. My advice would be to block and ignore. Can’t wait to get back to your fantastic food as soon as you’re fully open again. My fat fingers can’t type quickly enough to get a slot on Wed, as so many real customers beat me to it.
Just enjoyed an absolutely fab 5 course meal from

Not just delicious food but wonderful people too. Don’t need that nonsense, now more than ever. It’s idiot smack down time, as the HC so eloquently determined.
Irish High Court this morning has strongly rejected Facebook request for leave to appeal. HC has discretion to refer to CJEU, the exercise of which is not capable of appeal as sought. Over to Lux.

This decision is quite probably more significant than many lawyers will realise - until they cross paths with the incredible scope of the underlying law.
