💡 What is CLOUD Act?

 

CLOUD Act is a law in the USA. CLOUD Act allows the USA government to request access to any data that is stored on servers owned by USA based companies.

Very important to know is that this law also applies to servers that are located outside the USA.

This means that if your personal data is stored on a server that is owned by an American company, then the USA government can request access to your company’s personal data.

 


💡 What is Schrems II?

 

Schrems II is a court judgement from the European Court of Justice.

Schrems II In short says that, because of the American law CLOUD Act, it might be illegal to store personal information about EU citizens on servers owned by American companies. No one knows 100% for sure yet, and if you are convicted to violate GDPR you could get fined up to €20 million.
