Under the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), the “Adequate Level of Protection” refers to the minimum standard of data protection measures that the European Commission requires from a third country or international organization before approving cross-border data transfers to that entity. The assessment considers not only the data protection rules, security measures, and technical safeguards implemented by the third country or organization but also factors such as the rule of law, respect for human rights, and the enforcement of compliance and data protection regulations.
