Hasn’t the EU repeatedly ruled that personal data collected from EU citizens in EU jurisdictions cannot legally pass into U.S. jurisdiction? Partitioning online

Hasn’t the EU repeatedly ruled that personal data collected from EU citizens in EU jurisdictions cannot legally pass into U.S. jurisdiction? Partitioning online stores geographically seems like a way to deliver such compliance.
- ceejayoz 4y agoNo, the EU has not ruled that; the EU has ruled that it requires the user's consent. https://ec.europa.eu/info/law/law-topic/data-protection/reform/rules-business-and-organisations/obligations/what-rules-apply-if-my-organisation-transfers-data-outside-eu_en https://ec.europa.eu/info/law/law-topic/data-protection/refo... > if a transfer of personal data is envisaged to a third country that isn’t the subject of an Adequacy Decision and if appropriate safeguards are absent, a transfer can be made based on a number of derogations for specific situations for example, where an individual has explicitly consented to the proposed transfer after having been provided with all necessary information about the risks associated with the transfer.
