Implementing International Data Transfers: Registration Now Open For Live DUAA 2025 Compliance Training Ahead Of December 1, 2026 Session
Dublin, Sept. 10, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The "Implementing International Data Transfers: Adequacy, Safeguards (BCRs, IDTA, SCCs) and Derogations - Updated for DUAA 2025 (Dec 1, 2026)" has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.
International data transfer compliance has entered a new phase of complexity, and businesses have until December 1, 2026 to get up to speed with the latest rules. Registration for the IPI Academy organised 90-minute online training, "Implementing International Data Transfers: Adequacy, Safeguards (BCRs, IDTA, SCCs) and Derogations - Updated for DUAA 2025," running from 09:00 to 10:30 GMT. Led by data law specialist Mark Weston, the session addresses one of the most consequential shifts in UK-EU compliance since Brexit: the codification of the UK's Data Protection Test under the Data (Use and Access) Act 2025, which has deepened the divergence between UK GDPR and EU GDPR requirements for cross-border data flows.
The training arrives at a critical moment for organisations that move personal data across borders. As the course description explains, the post-Brexit data transfer landscape has fundamentally shifted, creating a complex web of compliance obligations that catch even experienced professionals off guard due to the ongoing divergence between the EU GDPR and the UK GDPR. With the UK's International Data Transfer Agreement and new Data Protection Test now in force, businesses face the challenge of navigating between UK requirements and EU requirements, whether in terms of different adequacy decisions, EU Schrems II tests, or the UK requirements recently codified in DUAA 2025.
A Compliance Landscape That Punishes Hesitation
The stakes are not abstract. The organisers note that one wrong move in international data transfers can trigger regulatory investigations, hefty fines and operational chaos and that every email to an overseas colleague, every cloud storage solution, and every international customer interaction potentially triggers transfer obligations. The UK has now firmly established its own mechanisms separate from the EU's approach in a variety of areas, creating what the course materials describe as a constantly evolving compliance landscape where yesterday's solutions may be tomorrow's violations.
The training is delivered by Mark Weston, who has run his own law firm, Weston Legal, since January 2024, and who also serves as a consultant at Hill Dickinson LLP, where he previously joined as a partner and Head of its Commercial, TMT & IP Practice in February 2016. Weston's practice spans commercial law, intellectual property, information technology law, e-commerce, and data protection, and he has advised clients including Elstree Film Studios, RTL Group S.A., Sykes Cottages, and the BBC. He is a published author across multiple legal texts and journals, lectures regularly on commercial and IT law topics, and appears as a legal commentator on BBC1 and Sky News.
The 90-minute session is structured around a single day of intensive content covering territoriality and extra-territoriality principles, EU and UK regulatory approaches, adequacy decisions, derogations, and other permitted transfer methods. Attendees will work through Schrems II and its consequential issues including Transfer Impact Assessments (TIAs) and Transfer Risk Assessments (TRAs), alongside Binding Corporate Rules, the latest EU Standard Contractual Clauses, and the ICO's International Data Transfer Agreement together with its EU addendum. The course carries 1 CPD hour of accreditation.
