Wait so, an an EU resident, processing my data outside of the EU is illegal under GDPR? I have a right to have it processed within the EU?

- HatchedLake721 7y agoIncorrect. It is legal to process data outside the EU. They have to be compliant with GDPR. GDPR does not require the data to processed within the EU borders.
- madeofpalk 7y agoExactly. Perhaps I worded my question wrong, but this is my assumption. The entire premise of the article seems incorrect.
- andreagrandi 7y agoMy understanding is that they can "process" it outside, but the "Data Controller" should be a European legal entity. After all, they are not saying "we are moving everyone data to US", they say "we are moving UK customers to US". I don't doubt they can do it, but I'm not a UK customer, that's the point.
