Explanation

One of the main reasons why the CJEU invalidated the Privacy Shield was that it found that the US surveillance programs were not limited to what is strictly necessary and proportionate, as required by the EU law. The CJEU also criticized the lack of effective judicial remedies for EU data subjects whose data was accessed by US authorities. The Trans-Atlantic Data Privacy Framework is intended to address these issues by introducing new safeguards to ensure that signals intelligence activities are necessary and proportionate in the pursuit of defined national security objectives, and by creating a new mechanism for EU individuals to seek redress if they believe they are unlawfully targeted by signals intelligence activities. The Framework also enhances the oversight and transparency of US surveillance practices.
