EDPB Guidelines on Article 65

Guidelines 03/2021 on the application of Article 65(1)(a) GDPR

The Guidelines GDPR detail the dispute resolution process for cases involving cross-border data processing, aiming to resolve disagreements among Lead Supervisory Authorities (LSAs) and Concerned Supervisory Authorities (CSAs) regarding GDPR infringements. They outline the legal framework and procedure stages, emphasizing the EDPB's role in issuing binding decisions on objections that meet the "relevant and reasoned" criteria. Additionally, the guidelines address procedural safeguards and remedies, including the right to be heard and access to files, but exclude scenarios involving disputes over supervisory authority competence or non-adherence to EDPB opinions under Articles 65(1)(b) and (c) GDPR.
