I thought privacy shield got invalidated?

  There is a chance that privacy "shield" is the opposite of what you think it is. Privacy shield was the idea to do as if US and EU privacy rules meet the same standard. This has been striken down by the EU court of justice for the ridiculous stretch that it was. That means now that privacy shield has been invalidated, EU and US privacy law is not compatible with each other. On top of that any US company can give you as many contractual guarantees as they like — they still will have to comply with the patriot act and give data to US secret services without any court interaction (or was it one of those shady "secret courts"?) — all of which is in violation of the European Convention on Human Rights.
