In order to reflect the requirements of GDPR, the Article 29 Working Party (WP29) has published the following updated guidelines on Binding Corporate Rules (BCRs):
- Working Document setting up a table with the elements and principles to be found in Binding Corporate Rules (WP 256)
- Working Document setting up a table with the elements and principles to be found in Processor Binding Corporate Rules (WP 257)
The tables have been amended to meet the requirements of Article 47 GDPR, in order to clarify the necessary content of BCR's and make the distinction between what must be included in BCR's to be presented to the competent supervisory authority in the BCRs application. The amendments will also effect corresponding the principles with the Article 47 text references for controller BCR's, as well as providing further guidance on each of the requirements.
