China’s Cybersecurity Law, Personal Information Protection Law, and Data Security Law have established the following channels for lawful cross-border data transfers, namely passing a security assessment conducted by the cyberspace authorities, obtaining a personal information protection certificate, and signing a standard contract with the overseas data recipient.

A host of regulations on the cross-border transfer of data have been released recently, demanding imminent compliance efforts on the part of companies:

On July 7^th, 2022, the Cyberspace Administration of China (CAC) published the Measures for Cross-border Data Transfer Security Assessments, effective as of September 1^st. On June 30^th, the CAC released the Standard Contractual Provisions for Cross-border Personal Information Transfer (Draft for Comment),  unveiling the standard contract as well as the corresponding requirements. On June 24^th, the Technical Specifications for Certification of Cross-Border Processing of Personal Information were issued by the National Information Security Standardization Technical Committee (TC260), laying the groundwork for cross-border personal information transfer certification activities.

In this latest edition of the Cybersecurity Compliance Series, the European Chamber is delighted to invite a Chinese expert (confirmed) and Mr Raymond Wang, partner of Shihui Law Firm to share their insights regarding China’s key regulations on cross-border data transfer, as well as compliance recommendations for multinationals in China.

This event is hybrid with limited on-site seating available on a first-come-first-served basis, it will be organized in Chinese without interpretation.

*Questions for the Q&A session will be collected and collated beforehand, on-site questions may not be responded at the event. Please submit your questions to Muyue Qiu at myqiu@europeanchamber.com.cn by COB noon 18^th July, 2022.

我国《网络安全法》、《个人信息保护法》、《数据安全法》明确了数据出境的若干路径，主要包括通过网信部门组织的安全评估，进行个人信息保护认证，以及与境外接收方订立标准合同。

近期，数据出境有关规定、草案密集出台，对企业提出了迫切合规要求：国家互联网信息办公室于2022年7月7日发布《数据出境安全评估办法》，自9月1日起施行；于6月30日发布《个人信息出境标准合同规定（征求意见稿）》，明确了标准合同文本及具体要求。全国信息安全标准化技术委员会于6月24日发布《个人信息跨境处理活动认证技术规范》，也为有关认证活动提供了依据。

本期“网络安全合规”系列活动有幸邀请到中方专家（已确认）、世辉律师事务所合伙人王新锐律师，就我国数据出境重点制度及外资在华企业数据出境路径选择做出解读，帮助跨国企业完整理解数据出境相关要求，建立起数据出境的合规管理机制。

本次会议为线上/线下研讨会，语言为中文，不提供同声传译服务；现场席位有限，先到先得。

*本次会议将提前搜集、整合会员问题，不接受现场提问。如果您有任何问题，请于7月18日之前发至Muyue  Qiu myqiu@europeanchamber.com.cn.
