CIPP-US - Introduction to the U.S. Privacy Environment - Section 1.4

Explain how adequacy decisions, standard contractual clauses, and binding corporate rules each serve as a legal basis for cross-border transfers of personal data to or from the US. Distinguish the conditions under which each mechanism is appropriate and recognise that an adequacy decision may be revoked, requiring a fallback transfer tool.
