Frequently Asked Questions on Data Protection & AI Governance Regulations

How does UK GDPR differ from EU GDPR after Brexit?

The UK GDPR is the EU GDPR as retained and amended by the Data Protection Act 2018 and subsequent SIs. The UK has adopted its own adequacy decisions, transfer mechanisms (IDTAs replacing SCCs), and enforcement by the ICO rather than EU supervisory authorities.

How does the UK GDPR differ from the EU GDPR post-Brexit?

UK GDPR is retained EU law amended by the Data Protection, Privacy and Electronic Communications (Amendments etc) (EU Exit) Regulations 2019, overseen exclusively by the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO). While maintaining core principles and rights, the UK can independently determine international adequacy agreements and set domestic statutory exemptions under the Data Protection Act 2018.

What is an International Data Transfer Agreement (IDTA) under UK data protection law?

The IDTA and the UK Addendum to the EU standard contractual clauses (SCCs) are approved statutory mechanisms under Section 119A of the Data Protection Act 2018 for transferring personal data out of the UK to countries without UK adequacy regulations, replacing pre-Brexit EU Standard Contractual Clauses.
